Fly Me To The Moon

Our nomination for an Academy Award!

Starring Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum, Fly Me To The Moon is a sharp, stylish romantic comedy set against the high-stakes backdrop of NASA’s historic Apollo 11 moon landing.

Brought in to fix NASA’s public image, sparks fly in all directions as marketing maven Kelly Jones (Johansson) wreaks havoc on launch director Cole Davis’s (Tatum) already difficult task.

When the White House deems the mission too important to fail, the countdown truly begins….

Sustained by Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum’s screwball chemistry even when its plotting strains credulity, this throwback romance is a pleasant enough trip to the moon and back.

Berlanti proves himself in comedy and embraces with conviction the themes of the sixties romcom: a sugary and colorful war of the sexes a la Rock Hudson and Doris Day sieved through the ‘Mad Men’ filter…

Fly Me To The Moon is silly and sassy, snappy and jazzy. It plays hard and fast with the truth, but somehow manages to squeeze some heart in among its paint-by-numbers characters
