Review of Moon Man

Moon Man (2022)
8/10
Full of heart, fun and quite nice CGI

This movie is AMAZING! 😃 It's a Chinese production, so yeah, it's a bit "weird," but it's really humorous, sweet, and cute. And yet, it's a nice story, and the physics is not as exaggerated as in American productions (although there are still some nonsenses). It looks pretty good, and overall, you believe in those people and the kangaroo (yeah, the kangaroo is the second main character).

The story makes sense, the main characters have clear motivations, and even during heart-wrenching scenes, there are occasional jokes, but they are not forced like in Marvel productions, where they try to squeeze in a joke every two minutes to meet some quota (or whatever, I have no idea why).

As for the visuals and CGI, it's evident that someone with an eye for detail worked on the overall designs and aesthetics. The sets have a somewhat cartoonish feel, yet they remain believable and actually quite beautiful. They have a classic sci-fi look to them.

Overall, I definitely recommend the film. Overlook the fact that it's in Chinese and turn on the subtitles, it's worth it. 8/10.
