In Moonfall, a mysterious force knocks the Moon from its orbit around Earth and sends it hurtling on a collision course with life as we know it. With mere weeks before impact and the world on the brink of annihilation, NASA executive and former astronaut Jo Fowler (Academy Award® winner Halle Berry) is convinced she has the key to saving us all -- but only one astronaut from her past, Brian Harper (Patrick Wilson, "Midway") and a conspiracy theorist K.C. Houseman (John Bradley, "Game of Thrones") believe her. These unlikely heroes will mount an impossible last-ditch mission into space, leaving behind everyone they love, only to find out that our Moon is not what we think it is.

Critics Consensus

Whether Moonfall is so bad it's good or simply bad will depend on your tolerance for B-movie cheese -- but either way, this is an Emmerich disaster thriller through and through.

It's like someone went 'Alexa write a really, really bad science fiction script'.

Consequence

In the credits for Moonfall, theres at least one astronaut consultant listed, but most of the film feels like a sustained dare to create the least realistic space movie ever made.

This film is totally stupid, but perhaps not stupid enough.

The film is far too self-important to qualify as a proper spoof but also far too ridiculous to take remotely seriously.

Rated: 2/5

Moonfall is the best kind of disaster, it distracts the brain just long enough to remind us it could be a lot worse.

Rated: C

I really enjoyed this. The Moon may not be what you think it is was a pretty awesome twist. Halle Berry & Patrick Wilson deliver good performances. Could it have been better, yes definitely. But it was a very good movie.

I didn't know much about this movie but my wife wanted to see it so we went. It's like 12 sci-fi movies rolled into one. Great cgi and a good pace. Overall it was entertaining.

This is quintessential Roland Emmerich film, not skipping any of his usual beats. Not his best but also not his worst. Fast moving film, not much filler. A better build up of its major Sci-fi concept would have been nice. Dumb fun but fun none the less.

Rated 3.5 out of 5 stars
