Moonshot (2022. D: Winterbauer) S: Lana Condor, Dylan Sprouse



Moonshot follows Walt (Cole Sprouse) and Sophie (Lana Condor) as they join forces in order to be reunited with their significant others. The two embark upon a lively journey that winds up taking them both wildly and unexpectedly off course. A romantic comedy with a twist from director Christopher Winterbauer. Moonshot premieres on HBO Max beginning March 31, 2022.

Moonshot, directed by Christopher Winterbauer, stars Cole Sprouse, Lana Condor, Mason Gooding, Emily Rudd, and Zach Braff. It was written by Max Taxe with Greg Berlanti, Sarah Schechter, Jill McElroy, and Jenna Sarkin producing and Mike McGrath, Richard Brener, Nikki Ramey, Paulina Sussman, Dana Fox, and Michelle Morrissey executive producing.

Hey Dan ... this is from the director of Wyrm. Why didn't that ever get a release??

I wish I knew! He's been super vague about answering that question on Twitter. Looks like it just never got picked up by the 'right' distributor, so it may be destined to that life. Such a damn shame, because I STILL consider it one of my favorite films.

I was lucky enough to see it in a cinema twice (Fantastic Fest as well as a local secret screening), as well as online (Seattle film fest, I think it was).

As for Moonshot, I'll watch it...
But I think he said it was a work-for-hire situation at one point.
We'll see if it has some of the charm from Wyrm, but this looks more like something for the YA crowd...

So, Moonshot wasn't bad!
It kind of falls into some of the typical young adult rom com tropes, but I actually found some/most of the humor to be pretty good, with a lot less eyeroll/groan moments than I expected for the genre.
Recommended. 3.5 robot baristas out of 5.
