Great special effects, and I thought the back story was good too.… Expand

It's far-fetched but science fiction often is. Overall a decent and entertaining movie. SFX range from fair to great. I wish I had ignored the critics and seen this in theaters. No worse or less entertaining than most of Emmerich's earlier films.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Es cierto que la temática y la estructura es muy típica, pero los efectos especiales son muy satisfactorios visualmente. No dejan nada qué desear. El ambiente me introdujo a la tensión y el terror; fue emocionante. La historia creativa fue muy impredecible. Se manejaron temas innovadores que en lo personal no me hubiera imaginado como lo fue la megaestructura de la Luna o el tema de los ancestros súper avanzados. Y el elenco estuvo magnífico. Actuaciones de calidad, al menos para mí como el consumidor.… Expand

Pure entertainment. I wasn't expecting anything else and I wasn't disappointed. If you like disaster movies, you're going to love this movie. Exciting, full of action and a lot of destruction. Fabulous!

I think this was a great movie. It seems movies like this always get bad reviews when there is an element of truth to them that the powers that be don't want people to know.

Sure, there were bad acting, cheesy scenes and was perhaps 30 mins too long - but I thoroughly enjoyed the journey. If you can suspend your need to be rooted to realism and instead entertain an alternative reality offered by Roland Emmerich for 2 hours - I am convinced you would enjoy the movie. The plot is just wild and you will not see it coming : just the kind of escapism one looks for when you walk in the theatre. Sometimes you just want to check out of every day reality and sink into a viable alternative universe. This is that kind of movie. And it is a win for me.… Expand

Conflict of interests disclosure ~ This reviewer has seen every Roland Emmerich movie and likes most of them.

The best balls-out sci-fi movie since the Chinese hit, Wandering Earth (2019) (Netflix, YouTube). Like Wandering Earth, MoonfallConflict of interests disclosure ~ This reviewer has seen every Roland Emmerich movie and likes most of them.

The best balls-out sci-fi movie since the Chinese hit, Wandering Earth (2019) (Netflix, YouTube). Like Wandering Earth, Moonfall IS A MOVIE ABOUT IMAGINATION. If you dislike artful expressions of visual imagination, stay away and don't carp about the dialogue until you have written a better script and can show it to me. If you didn't like the last 2-3 Roland movies, this one has a much faster pacing. Everything's compressed into three weeks. The story has all the characters improvising again and again, giving the whole narrative a slightly manic improv-like tone. This be-fits a story racing thru the most OUT-SIZED ideas imaginable, one after the other, lickety-split.

With both Moonfall and Wandering Earth (a Chinese homage to Emmerich disaster movies) and James Bond Movies, you don't walk into the theater expecting much more than spectacle and excitement. It's pointless to take such fare too seriously. Exercises in imagination live or die on execution, not on how well they stand up to deconstruction by critics. This is a 100% sci-fi epic at the Marvel-level. It succeeds for the same reasons. When you congregate CGI and VFX directors from three or more of the best special effects houses in the world, an unintended beneficial side-effect occurs. You end up with an astonishing brain trust of experience and creative talent in the multiple technical directors working off each other. This creates an unofficial directorial team where new ideas are welcomed and can be integrated. The result? The script on-set keeps evolving and improving daily. In post, the final edit keeps evolving and improving, right up to the the zero hour before printing copies for theaters. Cheers to Variety reviewer, Pete Debruge for this snappy summary: "Hollywood’s leading disaster artist, Emmerich knows how to blow things up real good. ... in [his] latest eye-roller, “Moonfall,” the joke is pretty much flipped: Everybody’s favorite satellite is set to collide with Earth in, oh, a day or so. This is just enough time for two space jockeys to suit up, shuttle out and set things right."… Expand

Underrated Sci-Fi movie. I wouldn't call it a Blockbuster film but it's better than most of the rubbish that has came out on film in the last 10 years.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. I had fun. Will it get awards? No. Will you think about it the day after? No. But it’s a solid, enjoyable, yet mindless popcorn flic. Let’s face it, any movie that resurrects the Space Shuttle AND gives us graffiti on it, out-launching a giant tidal wave has GOT to have a place in any 80s and 90s heart! So: Big screen. Sound to max. Enjoy the ride.… Expand

Adoro las películas donde hay invasiones alienígenas, desastres y todo este rollo, la peli cumple de sobra, la premisa que muestra con "los aliens" es prometedora, he leído que se pensaba hacer trilogía, pero lo dudo, ya que no ha triunfado en taquilla, aún así dejan un final abierto para una continuación.

En resumen: Si te molan los aliens, las explosiones, catástrofes y todas estas fumada vas a gozar de lo lindo con la peli.… Expand

This movie is among the best of the Hollywood Disaster movies. SFX are fantastic and the twist is great. Really fun adventure. Some of the physics are questionable but it’s a thrilling ride. Would happily watch again.

This is one of the more decent disaster movie in recent years. There are more destruction and action than 2012 or Independence Day. Definitely a must see for sci-fi nerds.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. Il film è da 7.5 ma Ragazzi qua sto film ha delle potenzialità assurde, la storia ha un colpo di scena che va oltre i soliti film di disastro naturale.Patrik Wilson fa il suo ottimo lavoro,ma a mio parere può salire a livelli ancora più alti.
SIGLIORI DATE I SOLDI A CHI DOVETE E FATEME USCIRE FUORI UN SECONDO PERCHÉ LO MERITA…

Una mia visione de secondo:
Tirare fuori la storia degli antichi umani,tirare in ballo questa intelligenza artificiale benigna e insieme agli umani combattere quella malignità in una battaglia terrestre e spaziale. Cioè tutta umanità che si allea passando sopra a li conflitti tra di loro, salendo proprio di un livello mentale dopo aver conosciuto la vera storia dell umanità e non commettere gli stessi errori.

Um filme muito bom enredo ótimo aborda um assunto novo e é difícil ver algo novo que preste hoje em dia parabéns e eu gostaria muito de uma sequência até por que eles já deixaram um final que pode ter continuação.

This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. en lo personal considerandome un cinefilo y amante del genero sci-fi siento que es una gran pelicula que cumple con su objetivo, contiene una creatividad inimaginable, me gusta como trato el tema de las esferas de dyson y de las megaestructuras, en mi opinion no se podrian haber descrito mejor, quizas a mucha gente le paresca una tematica muy repetitiva y es que si, nos presentan la tipica premisa de que la tierra esta destruyendose con fenomenos naturales y magicamente logra salvarse, pero logran ocultarla tan bien que pasa desapercibida.
me gustaron las actuaciones y los efectos estuvieron realistas y de buena calidad.
la trama de la pelicula me lleva a teorizar sobre las civilizaciones antiguas y de que nos depara el futuro y por ende, la vida en el espacio, pero mas halla de esto la recomiendo
8.50/10… Expand
