Most viewers seem to regard this film as bad, inane, ridiculous, unscientific and – fun, enjoyable, worth several more * that one would expect. So let’s see.

Though it starts with the death of an astronaut, it seems to be a comedy, a farce even. The moon’s orbit has shifted and it will probably crash into the Earth any day now, but the main conflict seems to be family squabbles.

Yupp. Bad, inane, ridiculous, unscientific (though, who knows?) and fun, enjoyable and the likeable actors make it worth 

3* of 5
