Popcorn Culture - Review: Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood

The latest from Richard Linklater, Apollo 10½: A Space Age Childhood is an animated film, loosely based on his own childhood, and set during the events before the Apollo 11 Moon landing - and imagining if a 10 year old was the first person to land on the moon. Featuring the voices of Glen Powell, Jack Black, Zachary Levi and Josh Wiggins, the film has been critically acclaimed. We talk about whether we enjoy the film, and whether the 2D animation format enhanced the storytelling.
