As a long-standing sci-fi fan, I know how difficult near sci-fi is; you need a lot of work to make it credible and realistic while keeping it fantastic. For All Mankind is not even near sci-fi, it is "past sci-fi" as its action is placed between 1969 and 1974 and it offers and alternate history of the conquest of the moon. The exercise was extremely ambitious and it worked pretty well in my view. Technically irreproachable, emotionally intense and, more importantly, always staying-with the exception of very few slippages and farfetched situations - on a very realistic and credible plane. Good casting, decent performances and above all lush production values complete what was for me a hugely enjoyable series.
