It is ultimately a $100m triumph of period production design that feels at least two script drafts away from balancing its frankly weird assortment of reference points, ideas and emotions.

| Original Score: 2/5 | Jan 16, 2025

Fans of the genre will appreciate the chemistry between the stars, and the skill with which the plot connects them personally and tests them professionally.

A surprise-filled rom-com for the fake news era. A surprise-filled rom-com for the fake news era.

Abort mission!

It’s that thing you want and think we can’t have: entertainment with brains, a comedy with surprise, a love story with guts.

| Original Score: A- | Nov 29, 2024

‘…a very old-fashioned film, but all the better for keeping things light…plays out in an endearingly silly way, but it’s chipper, personable quality says something good about Johansson and the way she sees her responsibility to entertain her audience…’

| Original Score: 3/5 | Nov 19, 2024

Much of its innate charm and goodwill gets whittled down the longer it goes.

| Original Score: B- | Nov 18, 2024

The movie’s production values are outstanding, especially the cars and costumes. To top it all off, there’s an enjoyable alley cat that has a key role to play in this historical adventure. “Fly Me To The Moon” is a pleasant, summer moviegoing diversion.

The chemistry between the leads needs a little work, especially on Tatum’s side.

| Original Score: 4/10 | Oct 8, 2024

Overall, Fly Me to the Moon is far from being the best movie of the year. However, it is still enjoyable, especially for those in the audience who have a particular interest in the Space Race.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Sep 14, 2024

Special nod to Greg Berlanti for injecting the film with a lot of heart. I wasn’t surprised by how good Johansson and Tatum were. I wasn’t surprised by how witty and light the jokes were. It’s the film being so moving that hit me sideways.

Its premise about a staged moon landing often benefits from palpable chemistry between Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, but its uneven pace stumbles into platitudes that suspend the romantic comedy in predictable situations. [Full review in Spanish]

| Original Score: 6/10 | Aug 19, 2024

Sweet and charming.

Berlanti proves himself in comedy and embraces with conviction the themes of the sixties romcom: a sugary and colorful war of the sexes a la Rock Hudson and Doris Day sieved through the 'Mad Men' filter... [Full review in Spansih]

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 8, 2024

While it's unable to steer its romantically predetermined components into any real semblance of authenticity, Fly Me to the Moon finds Scarlett Johansson in top form as a fascinating woman deserving of a more satisfying outcome.

| Original Score: 3.5/5 | Aug 7, 2024

It's not a great movie...it’s half-baked both as a breezy romantic comedy and as a stirring patriotic ode...but I appreciate how it understands the fundamental distrust toward manipulation that sits at the heart of conspiracy thinking.

Despite leaving its love affair on the launch pad, this sassy NASA romcom fulfils its mission to entertain.

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 5, 2024

No work of art exists separate to the zeitgeist, but Fly Me to the Moon is hoping its romantic escapism will do the trick. Unfortunately, Rose Gilroy’s... script and Greg Berlanti’s solid directorial work are faded relics of a faded empire.

| Aug 5, 2024

Fly Me To The Moon is silly and sassy, snappy and jazzy. It plays hard and fast with the truth, but somehow manages to squeeze some heart in among its paint-by-numbers characters

| Original Score: 3/5 | Aug 4, 2024

The space rom-com with Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum doesn’t know what it wants to be.
