Poor script lets down visually stunning ‘Fly Me To The Moon 3D’

Cert U

Family/Comedy/Action

In the summer of ‘69, intrepid housefly Nat (voiced by Trevor Gagnon) and his best friends Scooter (David Gore) and IQ (Philip Daniel Bolden) yearn for excitement.

Unfortunately, Nat’s mother (Kelly Ripa) tends to smother him. Inspired by the antics of his globetrotting grandpa (Christopher Lloyd), Nat encourages Scooter and IQ to join him on the voyage of a lifetime by hitching a ride inside the helmets of Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins.

‘Fly Me To The Moon’ is the first ever computer animated feature film designed, created and produced exclusively for 3D.

Director Ben Stassen and his team take us on an incredible journey through photo-realistic environments with the tiny flies as they swoop through gargantuan blades of grass or buzz around discarded toys.

While time and effort have clearly been lavished on the visuals, the same cannot be said for the dreadful script.

Star Rating: 2/5
