What to Know

Critics Consensus

Flatly animated and indifferently scripted, Fly Me To the Moon offers little for audiences not comprised of very young children.

David Fear Time Out Rated: 1/5 Nov 16, 2011 Full Review Lisa Schwarzbaum Entertainment Weekly Rated: B- Sep 7, 2011 Full Review Walter V. Addiego San Francisco Chronicle It's clear that animators can now achieve levels of visual depth that were previously impossible. Rated: 3/4 Oct 18, 2008 Full Review Debbie Lynn Elias Behind The Lens [W]e can all take our own trip to the moon right now with Fly Me To The Moon. It's out of this world! Nov 8, 2019 Full Review Brandy McDonnell The Oklahoman Best suited for younger children, "Fly Me to the Moon" will give little ones an appealing, eye-catching first look at 3-D movies, provided they can be persuaded to keep their goggles on.

Dinos K we never went to the moon, you idiots!! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 08/21/24 Full Review Holly C Such a good movie! Lots of laughter throughout the movie. The cinatography was impeccable and loved all the characters. I definitely would watch it again. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 07/07/24 Full Review Carey B Worthless. We went to moon more than once you idiots! Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 06/21/24 Full Review WESLEY G This movie was a weird fever dream, can't put my finger on it Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/26/24 Full Review Chris M Everyone knows that houseflies didn't go to the moon, considering these are anthropomorphic flies that had space suits for crying out loud. But for some strange reason the movie decided to have a live action Buzz Aldrin show up saying it never happened. It has early 2000s cheaper animation style and minor character issues. This is a kid's movie made for kids, how does it make it bad? Sure there's nothing for adults that aren't kids at heart and there is nothing close to real fly facts or historical facts but it is funny, the cast does great and well written. Overall, a flawed but fun kid's flick. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/14/23 Full Review Audience Member 10/10 loved it, fantastic movie, cinematic masterpiece, dare I say the reason theatre was made? Yes I dare because it do Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/25/23 Full Review Read all reviews
