I’m a huge space nerd. I worked at Space Camp and I’ve talked to dozens of astronauts. Obviously, I was looking forward to this movie, but with a little trepidation because I was curious how they would approach the fake moon landing angle. After seeing the movie, I can say that space nerds like me shouldn’t be concerned. They did it the right way.
Honestly, I wouldn’t be at all surprised if it happened just like this. I don’t believe it did, because they didn’t need to fake anything, but this fits with what we would expect of that administration.

The romance plot was fairly dull, but I see why it had to be in the story. And there was practically no humor in the movie other than the absurdity of the fake landing idea. But still, it managed to be a decent movie in unexpected ways.
I love how they weaved the fake moon landing story into the history of what happened. I wouldn’t suggest th at anyone rush out and see this movie, but if you’re a fan of either Scarlett Johansson or Channing Tatum then you won’t hate this movie. And Woody Harrelson plays a role that is just perfect for him.
What people are saying
about the RunPee app.
This is a great app. I wish more people would support it
This app provides info about movies, reviews, ratings from people who have seen it before and after viewing. It has links to info about the movies. It let's you know when there will be a lull in the action and how long it will last. If you want to know what happens during that time, you can check the brief synopsis (you have to click a link, so no accidental spoilers). It has a timer you can set (silent) to alert you to a break. It also tells you whether there is anything extra during or after the credits. It's really a wonderful app. I've subscribed for a couple of years to support the developers, but I noticed some of the links to provide feedback didn't seem to work today. They also made it free, with voluntary donations to see the pee-times. If you haven't tried it, I encourage you to do so, and subscribe if you like it. I really hope the app is supported so it can continue to be maintained!
Developers note: RunPee doesn't make much money but it supports itself nicely. Donations are appreciated, but not required. We'll add as many movies to the database as we can until there are no more movie theaters.

Grade: C
About The Peetimes: I tried to find a Peetime before the 30-minute mark of a movie, but it just wasn’t possible this time. I did manage to find one around 33 minutes. (Close enough for government work, right?) I think the first and second Peetimes are best. The third Peetime is the last break before the climax of the movie.
There are extra scenes during, or after, the end credits of Fly Me to the Moon.

Plot
Marketing maven Kelly Jones wreaks havoc on launch director Cole Davis’s already difficult task. When the White House deems the mission too important to fail, Jones is directed to stage a fake moon landing as back-up.
Creator and developer of the RunPee app. When something doesn’t work right in the app it’s pretty much his fault. 🙂
Aspiring author. Would like to finish his “Zombie Revelations” trilogy if he could break away for working on RunPee and the cottage he’s building for RunPee Mom.
