There are no signs of intelligent life in "Moonfall," a preposterous disaster movie that casts the moon — as in the actual moon in the sky, the one man landed on in 1969 — in the role of the villain.
"Oh (expletive), the moon is rising!" That tasty nugget of dialogue comes near the climax of the film, but let's not get ahead of ourselves. There are so many more deliciously bad lines to chew on, many of them delivered by a completely checked-out Halle Berry, who serves them up with the same inflection she might dictate a lunch order.
"Everything we thought we knew about the nature of our existence has just been thrown out the window," says Jo Fowler (Berry), like it's just another Tuesday at the office. She's an astronaut who is part of a discovery that the moon's orbit has shifted and it's now on a collision course with Earth in T-minus three weeks.
