Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
As for the space stuff, well, George Lucas need not lose any sleep.
A tougher endurance test than anything NASA could cook up.
And while it may not teach sprogs anything about insects - these ones have human eyes and four limbs - director Ben Stassen has made a fair fist of portraying the Apollo mission with some accuracy.
Fly Me to the Moon bills itself as the first animated feature created expressly for 3-D. Too bad it wasn't created expressly for, you know, pleasure or art.
