Good Night Oppy Ratings & Reviews

  • Kevin WardJuly 6, 2025
    Informative documentary on the Mars Rovers Spirit and Opportunity (Oppy). Filled with gorgeous CG recreations of images returned by the two remote operated vehicles it’s easy to see the inspiration for Disney/Pixar’s Wall-E. The sounds effects used even sound like Wall-E.  There’s not a ton of drama or tension save for a couple moments and for that reason it’s not necessarily the most compelling watch. But as someone that loves to marvel at the wonders of space exploration, this was pretty good.
