Moonfall (2022)
2/10
100% Diabolical
14 May 2022
What on 'earth' did I just watch? Something about the moon? An absolutely diabolical concept in which everything we know about our orbiting satellite is hogwash, and a group of disregarded hacks happen to own the keys to the future of mankind? The longer you watch, the more it plays out like idiots led by even bigger idiots that happen to know even better.

It does have some lovely special effects - but big deal on movie-house budgets these days - and some of the most appalling scriptwriting you could never hope to see. What in God's name are these people doing these days and how can they get it so wrong? Sitting in front of computers thinking how can we create the next gob-smackingly-bad epic, and with absolutely no idea how to write a believable or plausible story. The cheese is laid on as thick and haphazardly as veritable moon dust.

And dear Halle Berry, please read some proper scripts and get back to the real acting we know you are capable of. And don't get me started on the wobbly bad-acting jerk from Game of Thrones.

An awfully hole-ridden and very corny concoction that plays out like a tepid kids movie at best. It makes recent Star Trek movies seem half decent by comparison, and at least if this was scripted as an action comedy with jokes and self-deprecating humor it could have been serviceable, maybe.

A movie made by wallies for supposedly even bigger ones like us.
