75Will probably pass muster with very young viewers, but their parents may grit their teeth at its saccharine quality.
-
67Brisk and sweet, even if the script veers toward fussy and lame.
-
The animation IS great and absolutely so fantastic you'll want to reach out and touch the creatures - or swat them off your uncomfortable 3-D glasses.
-
63Fly Me to the Moon is a crummy movie for kids, yet it still holds out the prospect of past wonders and future marvels. It's one small step for a housefly, one giant leap for 3-D.
-
58Would be totally unexceptional if not for its visual telling of the Apollo 11 flight and the fact that the movie is impressively shot - the first animated feature film in 3-D.
-
50An awkward mix of proficient 3-D animation, detailed technical recreation and strained storytelling that stalls on takeoff.
-
50What saves Fly Me to the Moon from being a total wash is the actual mission itself.
-
50The script appears to have been designed, created and produced entirely in 1-D: a mishmash of kidcentric antics, follow-your-dream cliches, and innocuously icky humor.
-
50Go to enjoy the technical expertise, and take a first-grader (and not a particularly savvy one) along to find something of value in everything else.
-
50It’s a wingless exercise, despite a rather heartening attitude toward space travel that will introduce young auds to the glory that was NASA in the '60s.
-
50Despite some Cold War humor, the formulaic film is aimed squarely at the youngest of young children.
-
This sketchily conceived and executed space yarn is one missed opportunity after another.
-
This oddly paced kids' entertainment displays flashes of intelligence -- then misspells terms on NASA control panels.
-
38All of this is interesting, but not all that entertaining.
-
30One of the most undermotivated plots in many a moon, the zero-wit, zero-gravity misadventures of Nat, I.Q. and Scooter are embarked on merely because they're bored on their garbage dump.
-
30The little heroes and their families are surprisingly ugly, with faces resembling skulls, and the colors are so faded and muddy the movie feels tired and bungled.
-
25The vocal characterizations aren't the problem here; the script and the animation are the problems, and in feature animation, you can't arrange more significant problems than those.
-
25A tribute to a giant leap for mankind feels like a clumsy shuffle backward for animation.
-
25The film still suffers from cheap plasticky design, a klutzy overall look, dim preschooler humor, and a nearly impact-free story that thinks it's clever when it steals cues from 2001.
-
20Forgive us for being demanding, but shouldn't an animated kids movie like this one be, at the very least, fun? Cute? Watchable?
-
20Adding to weirdness is a tacked-on, live-action appearance from the real Aldrin, who reassures kids and terrified X-Files fans that there weren't, in fact, any houseflies on board Apollo 11.
