In this climate of cinema 2024, original IP has been constantly challenged to find an audience, so I’m happy to come upon films that don’t rely on instant franchise recognition or long-established IP. 

In this climate of cinema 2024, original IP has been constantly challenged to find an audience, so I’m happy to come upon films that don’t rely on instant franchise recognition or long-established IP. This new rom-com from director Greg Berlanti features Scarlett Johansson and Channing Tatum in a cast that is set in the era of the American-Soviet space race of the 1960s.

The film's premise is a fictitious retelling of the events leading up to the historic Apollo 11 moon mission, when Armstrong, Aldrin, and Collins cemented how the US would come from behind, trump the space race, be the first to put someone on the moon and televise the historic moment. Playing strong support are Henry , who works with Cole in the launch operations, and Lance , an advertising director with an over-inflated ego and is consistently hilarious - go-to of Kelly when she needs a director.

There’s witty repartee and gentle but effective humor carrying the first half of the film. The chemistry between Johansson and Tatum works, but not in a Stop the World magnitude. Just right, and that’s fortunate, as some might have questioned if these two are still that popular - or if the pairing made more sense five to seven years ago.
