If you were expecting a deep dive into moon landing conspiracies, Fly Me to the Moon will surprise you—in the best way possible. Despite the misleading trailers, this film is not a conspiracy thriller but an endearing romantic comedy that delivers plenty of laughs and clever period jokes.
Scarlett Johansson shines, bringing a delightful charm to her role that adds layers to the film. Her performance is the movie's heartbeat, making the romantic and humorous moments equally compelling.
Woody Harrelson gives a chillingly sinister performance, leaving viewers on edge. But what might be even more unsettling is Channing Tatum’s wardrobe choice—a vest under a knitted shirt—that will surely stick in your memory.
However, it’s disappointing to see Ray Romano relegated to a minor role that feels more like his character from Everybody Loves Raymond rather than showcasing the depth he displayed in The Irishman. His talent seems underutilised in a part that doesn’t match the film’s overall tone.
Overall, Fly Me to the Moon is an enjoyable romp filled with good humour and fun.
