Fly Me To The Moon
by James Harper
This is a movie for the young folk. The plot of Fly Me to the Moon incorporates the true story of Apollo 11 as a backdrop for this story about three young houseflies that want to go to the moon. So of course they just hitch a ride on Apollo 11, all the way to the moon and back, returning to an insect tickertape parade. The movie is billed as being the "first ever animated movie created for 3D", and I would take that with a big pinch of salt.
The movie was directed by Ben Stassen, who has made 3D movies in the past (though I haven't seen any of them). The voice talent used included Tim Curry, Ed Begley Jr, Adrienne Barbeau, Robert Patrick and Buzz Aldrin appears at the conclusion of the film as himself. None of the voice talent made a big impression on me, though it didn't really detract. I just heard Ed Begley Jr. in a radio "Twilight Zone" one spooky night not too long ago, and he really didn't register there either. It wasn't all that spooky.
