Storyline
What if Apollo 11 never actually made it? What if, in reality, Stanley Kubrick secretly shot the famous images of the moon landing in a studio, working for the US administration? This is the premise of a totally plausible conspiracy theory that takes us to swinging sixties London, where a stubborn CIA agent will never find Kubrick but instead is forced to team up with a lousy manager of a seedy rock band to develop the biggest con of all time, in this riotous, high-tempo action-comedy.

Rating: 8/10
Seen at the Etrange Festival where it won the Audience Award. One of
the coolest stoner comedy with a - as always - fantastic Ron Perlman
and a Rupert Grint who obviously wanted to exit from the Harry Potter
era. Regardless of the subject, this movie was for me an enormous laugh
from the opening credits to the very end. It was even better because I
didn't know anything about it, in particular that it was a comedy. Ron
Perlman is sent by the CIA to England to shoot a fake movie of the moon
landing directed by Stanley Kubrick in case of failure of the Apollo 11
mission. Of course, nothing happens as expected. Don't expect Citizen
Kane, but I hope you will enjoy it as much as I did.
