I found it hard to stay awake

This is not a summary of the film, this is a review.

Before I watched this, I believed 2002's Gerry was the most boring film ever made. It took Hollywood 9 years to free Gerry from that title. Apollo is the most stretched out cliché story ever and without a climax to make it worth your time. The story is supposed to grab you and you are supposed to feel for the characters, but I felt nothing and people call me over sensitive. I am sure the actors are wonderful, but they did not get the chance to show their potential talents in this film. One can only hope that they'll get another chance to prove themselves because with this film on their résumé, they won't impress anyone any time soon. The only reason we watched the entire film is because a friend recommended the film to us and we were hoping the film would pick up at some point... it did not.

Spare yourself the disappointment and the realisation that you wasted 86 minutes of your life which could have been spent doing something more exciting.... like watching paint dry.
