"Few would claim there are no flies on this one, but at least the outstanding 3D effects are some compensation for the dumbed-down inanity of everything else."
Channel 4 Film
Anton Bitel
1.5/5
"this celebration of a giant leap for mankind is really just a small, insignificant step for film fans."

"While it's hard to recommend it on purely creative merit, I suppose it would be a wonderful thing if these silly flies ended up pushing kids to investigate space travel and the legacy of NASA. Unlikely, but it's more comforting than fart and burp jokes."

2.5/4
"An immersive experience, perhaps the most impressive and least flawed use of the 3-D format, to date."

"These flies are meant to be one of a kind but they're just pop-culture magpies."
Village Voice

"Dull dialogue, a dull story, and dull animation. What's left?"

"If
Fly Me to the Moon
were not in 3D, it'd hardly be worth the effort."
Film School Rejects

"
Fly Me to the Moon's
idea of high hilarity is to have Nat's mom fret 'Oh my lord of the flies,' then feel the need to repeat the 'joke.'"
Reeling Reviews
Laura Clifford
"My eyes are still burning from... the horrible racial, cultural, and gender stereotypes of the 1960s [and the] weirdly, disturbingly human-ish flies..."
Flick Filosopher

"If they can put a man on the moon, why can't they tell a better story about sending some flies along for the ride?"
Chicago Sun-Times
Nell Minow
1/4
"
Fly Me to the Moon
is in 3D because, without the glasses-required effects, not even a three-year-old would sit through it."
Slant Magazine
Nick Schager
1/5
"A disgracefully vapid and horrendously ugly work that makes the likes of "Doogal" or "Happily N'Ever After" look like "Pinocchio" and "WALL-E" by comparison."
eFilmCritic.com
Peter Sobczynski
2/5
"Despite some astonishing visual sequences, a flimsy script and frankly awful character design ground this film before it can blast off."
Shadows on the Wall
