For All Mankind

 (1989)

For All Mankind Blu-ray delivers stunning video and audio in this exceptional Blu-ray release

In July 1969, the space race ended when Apollo 11 fulfilled President Kennedy’s challenge of “landing a man on the Moon and returning him safely to the Earth.” No one who witnessed the lunar landing will ever forget it. Al Reinert’s documentary For All Mankind is the story of the twenty-four men who traveled to the Moon, told in their words, in their voices, using the images of their experiences. Forty years later, it remains the most radical, visually dazzling work of cinema yet made about this earth-shaking event.

For more about For All Mankind and the For All Mankind Blu-ray release, see the For All Mankind Blu-ray Review published by on where this Blu-ray release scored 4.5 out of 5.

Narrators: Richard Gordon, Michael Collins, Charles Conrad
Director: Al Reinert

For All Mankind Blu-ray, Video Quality

  4.5 of 5

Presented in its original aspect ratio of 1.33:1, encoded with MPEG-4 AVC and granted a 1080p transfer, Al Reinert's For All Mankind arrives on Blu-ray courtesy of Criterion.

I like what Criterion have done here. The transfer reveals solid detail, excellent color reproduction and strong clarity (when compared to the SDVD transfer). More importantly, when blown through a digital projector, For All Mankind remains pleasingly stable. Furthermore, the Blu-ray transfer has enhanced the grain structure of the film quite nicely. As a result, the footage from the Moon looks absolutely fantastic. This being said, this is a newly restored, supervised and approved by the director, high-definition transfer of the film, which was created on a Spirit Datacine from a 35mm interpositive. All in all, I doubt it For All Mankind looked this good when it was first screened. (Note: This is a Region-A "locked" Blu-ray disc. Therefore, unless you have a native Region-A or Region-Free player, you won't be able to playback it).


For All Mankind Blu-ray, Audio Quality

  4.5 of 5

There is only one audio track on this Blu-ray disc: English DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1. For the record, Criterion have provided optional English HOH track for the main feature as well as optional intertitles identifying the voices of the men heard throughout the film.

As noted in the booklet offered with this release, the original Dolby Digital 5.1 soundtrack has been remastered at 24-bit from 35mm magnetic tracks. Clicks, thumps, hiss, and hum have been removed manually using Pro Tools HD. The result is a stable, notably clear and crisp audio data, which sounds terrific encoded as a DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1 track. Brian Eno's atmospheric music score sounds excellent and there are no balance issues that I detected with it.
