Inspiring but not cloying, this is compelling drama precisely because it is as compromised and imperfect as our own struggles to progress. Don’t be put off by the tech stuff; it’s only rocket science.
At its best — which it still so often is — For All Mankind is able to present so many different, exciting movies at the same time that the missteps stick out more than they would on a series not trying to do as much, let alone as widely capable. By heading to Mars, FAM is reaching further than ever — a reach that sometimes exceeds its grasp, even as it’s a lot of fun to see them try.

One of the best series I've ever seen! Each episode manages to excite me like few other productions. Everything is taken care of down to the smallest detail of the staging, from the scenography to the costumes to the videos and images of historical reconstruction. Another wonderful gem from Apple Tv +
Report
All throughout, season 4 unfolds with a breathless pace and a tight grip on story that invites viewers to simply come along for the ride.
A lot of the male characters, headlined by Joel Kinnaman and Michael Dorman, are flat and stereotypically predictable, but the show tells its best stories with the women involved in the space program, be it the first class of female astronauts or the wives of the original astronauts. Thankfully, large chunks of episodes are devoted to them. And the space scenes look good too.
For All Mankind is nowhere near perfect, but it’s deeply watchable — eventually.
Domestic drama occupies a lot of screen time and plays out in ways both predictable and unlikely. For all of its polish and cleverness and suspense, “For All Mankind” ultimately puts the soap in space opera.
It takes a few episodes to break free from rehashes of well-worn stories: unfaithful and distant spouses, unruly kids, interfamily envy. Every character on this show is saddled with an initial, perfunctory purpose. It’s only with the benefit of hours spent with them that more dynamic parts of their corner of this galactic web get to emerge — and that’s too long to wait.
Amazing sci-fi, considering the other garbage we're being proposed these days like MandaLOLian, Another Life, Away, bla bla yadda yadda. Yes, it's heavier on the drama than 12yo future-tech-fetishists would prefer, but that only makes it more compelling, because the acting is world class. Absolutely can't wait for S2, already watched S1 a second time to refresh my memory. How anyone is rating this anything less than an 8 is blowing my mind.

With a really compelling premise, interesting characters, and a fun first season, it's tempting to rate this show very highly, but if you continue to watch, it's hard not to see the flaws. It's disappointing because there are a lot of great things about it, but the plot is often driven by rickety implausible moments that just aren't worthy of the show. Silly engineering choices, silly decisions, silly character development. Mind you, I'm talking about individual details, not a constant flow. It remains very watchable. Be aware that the DEI crew have been hard at work on this one. Women are better than men at everything and there are points when every character with any power at all is female.

GREAT concept. But quickly morphed into a schlocky soap opera.
Deeply disappointing as the original storyline was so very promising .
Report
What started out as a fairly grounded story of space exploration, by season three has devolved into a ridiculous melodrama full of bad dramatic tropes worthy of a Michael Bay disaster movie.
