Based on the biography from James R. Hansen, “First Man” tells the story of Neil Armstrong's (Ryan Gosling) life and the enormous conflicts and hardships the pilot faced before and during his legendary mission. It explores Armstrong's personal and professional life, highlighting his journey through the intense NASA space program and the challenges leading to the Apollo 11 mission in 1969. The movie explores the triumphs and the cost—on Armstrong, his family, his colleagues and the nation itself—of one of the most dangerous missions in history.
In the same way that a great war film puts you on the battlefield, this film puts you inside the cockpit, inside the spacesuit, and inside those tremulous, heartstopping moments before Armstrong made his famous "leap for mankind." (Max Weiss - Baltimore Magazine)
