I’d flat out refuse to see that version.

YMMV, but I saw it and would gladly see it again. There are TONS of AMERICAN flags in the movie. The lunar surface scene was mainly about Armstrong personally, so IMHO the flag was not glaringly missing. Seems to me just a way to attack the movie.

I highly recommend it... the beginning X15 scene was worth admission all by itself.

Good point. I remember thinking when I saw it that they gave the lunar landing short shrift. Thinking about it. however, you realize the movie was about Armstrong himself, how he got there and not so much about any one event.

I wish they had done a little more on his post-Apollo 11 career, though, which was equally phenomenal, in my opinion.
