Fly Me to the Moon starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum will make its streaming debut on Apple TV+ subsequent month.
Fly Me to the Moon, the romantic comedy starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, is lastly making its streaming debut. Apple Authentic Movies introduced as we speak that the movie will likely be obtainable to stream on Apple TV+ on December sixth.
Fly Me to the Moon was initially slated to debut on Apple TV+, however after optimistic check screenings, it was given a theatrical launch in July. Sadly, the movie grossed simply $42.2 million in opposition to a finances of $100 million. It additionally obtained combined opinions from critics and audiences. That’s usually a recipe for a studio to instantly dump the movie on streaming, so it’s shocking that Apple has waited so lengthy.

When the President deems the mission too essential to fail, Jones is directed to stage a faux moon touchdown as back-up and the countdown really begins…“
Our personal Tyler Nichols discovered the movie to be a “very light and fun experience” however discovered that the romantic comedy features generally clashed with the conspiracy concept components. “The romance between Kelly and Cole makes this feel very ‘rom-comy’ at times. Their chemistry helps make it charming but it’s hard not to feel like it’s a bit cliche,” Nichols wrote. “Unfortunately, in trying to tell a romance story along with this very conspiracy-laden space mission, the film can feel a bit disjointed. The movie’s first half is essentially about funding the project and making the general public care. Then the second half is about the conspiracy theory regarding filming a fake moon landing. Because of this, it feels like the main plot doesn’t actually start progressing until almost an hour in. There are merits in both halves of the film, but the crux of the story resides in the second half, so I’m not sure why it wasn’t more built around that. At times, it feels like it could have had 30 minutes cut, while also having enough going on that this could have easily been a miniseries.” You’ll be able to take a look at the remainder of Nichols’ evaluate proper right here.
