- Synopsis:
- From Michel Gondry's acclaimed producer comes 'Moonwalkers', a hilarious, high-concept action comedy, that asks the question, 'what if Apollo 11 never actually made it?' What if, instead, the legendary Stanley Kubrick secretly shot the famous images of the moon landing in a studio, working for the US government? This is the premise of a perfectly plausible conspiracy theory that takes us to swinging sixties London, where a stubborn CIA agent (Ron Perlman) is forced to team up with the lousy manager of a seedy rock band (Rupert Grint) to develop the biggest con of all time, in this riotous, high-tempo action-comedy!

I've seen some turkeys in my time, but... - Moonwalkers review by RT
This is terrible. I mean, I'm a fan of "good" bad movies, but this is a "bad" bad movie. It has absolutely nothing to recommend it. It fails the first rule of comedies, which is "It must be funny". This isn't even unintentionally funny. The entire cast must be spending their time denying they were ever in it. I stromgly suspect the directors and writers were consuming far too many illegal substances during the whole affair.
Pros: the plot actually isn't a bad concept. The cast includes good people who do their best but the whole thing is completely inadequate to their talents.
Cons: It's crap. The characters are unconvincing. The writing is terrible. As "comedies" go, you'd laugh more at somebody strangling kittens. The whole thing feels like it's been conceived as an effort for the directors to go back to their drug-addled 1960's memories.
Conclusion: avoid at all costs.
