Every week, comedians Andrew Jupin, Stephen Sajdak, Eric Szyszka, and Chris Cabin pick a movie from the near-past to discuss and joke around about in all its positive and negative glory.

“Fly Me to the Moon” Movie Review

Kevin says Fly Me to the Moon kinda rocks!
A new movie in theaters is shooting for the moon.
FLY ME TO THE MOON stars Scarlett Johansson as a marketing genius hired to put NASA on the front page. There, she butts heads with Launch Commander Channing Tatum and of course, there’s a romance brewing. Oh, and there’s also a controversial back-up plan.
On its surface, this is a harmless film, which leans heavily into rom com tropes and lighthearted humor. Though I can’t shake the feeling in this day and age of flat Earthers and QAnon that making a film with a fake moon landing might not be the best choice right now.
If anything, FLY ME TO THE MOON bites off more than it can chew – from the love story to the securing funding for NASA to the nostalgia of the space race to the characters coming to terms with their past – and that drains some energy with an overlong running time.
Still, it’s enjoyable, and the stars have pleasant chemistry. Ultimately, it’s a lark and a light slice of entertainment you can enjoy with a glass of Tang.
FLY ME TO THE MOON gets three rockets out of five. I’m Kevin Carr, and that’s the way I see it.
