Moonfall is a 2022 blockbuster monster disaster movie from the writer-director of Independence Day and 2012. It cost over a 100 million to make and it flopped badly at the box office, becoming yet another big budget hollywood movie to lose a bunch of money. And it's strange since the movie is very similar to 2012 which was a huge success, and it even features a new space worm monster on top. So home come it performed so much worse? It might be because it fails at being a disaster movie as well as a monster movie. In today's Anatomy of a Failure, let's tumble into Moonfall for a closer look.

Moonfall (2022)
In Moonfall, a mysterious force knocks the Moon from its orbit around Earth and sends it hurtling on a collision course with life as we know it. With mere weeks before impact and the world on the brink of annihilation, NASA executive and former astronaut Jo Fowler (Academy Award® winner Halle Berry) is convinced she has the key to saving us all - but only one astronaut from her past, Brian Harper (Patrick Wilson, “Midway”) and a conspiracy theorist K.C. Houseman (John Bradley, “Game of Thrones”) believes her. These unlikely heroes will mount an impossible last-ditch mission into space, leaving behind everyone they love, only to find out that our Moon is not what we think it is.

2012 (2009)
Disaster movie maven Roland Emmerich (Independence Day, The Day After Tomorrow) crafts this apocalyptic sci-fi thriller following the prophecy stated by the ancient Mayan calendar, which says that the world will come to an end on December 21, 2012.

@da.de.7915 2 года назад

That is actually consistent with the story, the nanobots hindered the energy source of the moon so it couldnt self correct its flight arround earth... after destroying the swarm it was able to fly again and could self correct back into orbot. That makes sense in the universe... What didnt make sense: The energy source was a white dwarf that thing has a mass between 0.15-1.2 of our suns. Therefore it has similar gravity, therefore the spaceshipmoon can change its mass, otherwise it would have broken earth into pieces Why does it not change its mass after nearing earth to avoid damaging it...

@Dampfaeus 2 года назад

No, no. The moon is not a moon, it's a giant spaceship that just looks like a moon. Once the super high-tech jabberwocky stopped hacking/sucking power from the core/interfering with its operation, the moon mini-AI could instantly start the big moon engine and move the moon back to the optimal position. And because the moon is a super-awesome spaceship, it could move really, really fast. Except when it's falling down to Earth. Also, the film forgets to mention that ~95% of humans, animals, and plants are probably dead already, and the interfering gravity might have ripped big slices into Earth, or might have started other tectonic-related super-disasters. The Yellowstone Caldera probably erupted. The economy and the energy grids are gone. Humanity is, if at all, back to the early dark ages. Okay, having control of the moon-ship might help recovery by a lot. Hopefully quick enough until main AI shows up. Which has probably taken over a few Galaxies and became a Kardashev 3.x Level Powerhouse. It wouldn't even need to come personally. It could just focus the power of a hundred suns into an intergalactic death beam.

Just like with how Geostorm failed, I think brining in a malicious entity as the primary cause of the disaster cheapens it. One of the horrifying aspects of these sorts of stories is that the disasters just happen as a part of nature. No evil villain or monster is making it happen. It's just the world screwing us over, and we can do very little to stop it. Making it the work of a villain or monster means that you can punch them in the face to solve the problem. You can't really punch nature in the face.

Contagion was definitely a great movie, but I feel like it’s not really fair to compare a movie like this to a movie like that. Yes, they’re both disaster movies, but they aren’t the same “genre” of disaster. Disaster via disease and disaster via monster/geo/space/event have vastly different requirements. Contagion didn’t show visual disasters like this movie because there literally weren’t any to show, not because they chose to. The only scenes you can show in disease disaster movies are human panic, there is no spectacle. Where-areas, event disaster movies like 2012 or Moonfall are required to have visual disaster and spectacle. Haha, doesn’t help this movies standing at all, just wanted to point that out.

You were WAY to nice on this failure. One of the other major failures, among many others, is that the science behind many of the moon's effect on earth are so painfully wrong that any high school educated person knows that it's bullshit. Example 1: Moon will rip away atmosphere in mountains: gravity doesn't discriminate between oxygen and the rest of the atmosphere. ALL of it would thin out, meaning you would need a space suit to survive. Example 2: Gravity from the moon is shown visibly lifting cars into the air, but if you run fast enough and hide in a wood barn you won't get lifted into the air?? Riiiiiight... (One thing Roland Emmerich has been consistently a failure at in all his films, successful or not, is basic Science. Luckily, in some of his past films this was so minor you could overlook it, but in this one it was much more important and his lack of understanding really showed.)

Okay but uh... it's called suspension of disbelief. I'm not saying the movie is good, but going after a film about evil aliens and the moon plummeting to earth for being unrealistic might not be the best idea. In films, there's this idea called suspension of disbelief, which is basically that you have to draw lines around where you're gonna obey real world logic, and where you expect the audience to understand you taking creative liberties with real world logic, such as the real world science of the moon falling to the earth. The movie expects the audience to be able to suspend their disbelief the same way star wars expects you to be able to believe that there could be laser swords and wizards who can make objects float because of little creatures in their blood. It's not a "major failure" of the movie, it's just an inherent part of filmmaking.

@TH_Zireael2077 2 года назад

Plus the fact that radio towers still work, plus a white dwarf being way too big to be able to fit in the moon, plus the mass of one, plus the fact that Dyson Spheres are significantly larger than that. Honestly, it's way more than you can count.

@DoctorBiobrain 2 года назад

@@apersonwhomayormaynotexist9868 That’s not how suspension of disbelief works. Movies need rules for people to care about what they’re seeing. In Star Wars, it’s established that light sabers work and the Force is real. In this movie, they’re using our rules of physics, yet apply them arbitrarily. People can accept magic in a Harry Potter movie because they have established rules. But if Harry Potter defeated Voldemort by pulling out a light saber and using Force powers, people would complain. Suspension of disbelief doesn’t mean turning off your brain. That sort of thinking is why so many movies are unwatchable. Just because a movie does something doesn’t make it ok.

In fact, when he sacrificed himself I went "hah good" because I didnt like him enough to want him to live- a little cold but the truth.

Whereas for me Greenland was soured by the focus on the family stuff, haha! I wanted more CGI schlock and sludge, less familial tears and fears especially since the characters were unlikeable (as are they often are in Emmerich flicks this side of 2000). Both Greenland and the movie of subject exemplify the same issue: Emmerich seems to have missed why we tune in to his disaster fests. McDonald's needs not serve steak. We want the paper-thin Big Mac and mystery meat nuggets with the cardboard fries.

I remember a novel called Moonfall. In that novel, the Moon actually finished falling (as large chunks, with widespread ruin), and it was not - as far as I know - anything to do with an alien AI or anything like that.
