Trăng Rơi Moonfall (2022)

Roland Emmerich's 'Moonfall' solidifies his reputation as the "master of disaster" with an audacious, albeit polarizing, visual spectacle. The film fearlessly pushes the boundaries of science fiction into the realm of the utterly preposterous, positing the Moon not merely as Earth’s natural satellite but a repository of cataclysmic secrets. Emmerich’s signature cinematic techniques are on full display: massive destruction sequences, breathtaking visual effects (VFX) that dominate the screen, and immersive sound design, creating a purely visceral cinematic experience.

Despite their valiant efforts, the performances from an ensemble cast, notably Halle Berry and Patrick Wilson, struggle to ground the increasingly fantastical narrative, often overshadowed by the relentless CGI and plot mechanics. John Bradley provides much-needed comic relief. 'Moonfall' positions itself squarely within the cosmic disaster genre, where narrative serves largely as a vehicle for grand-scale set pieces. It offers neither profound philosophical insights nor genre-redefining innovations, instead prioritizing maximum thrill delivery and a unique, Hollywood-esque exploration of the hollow moon theory. The film stands as pure entertainment, a visually stunning yet narratively outlandish blockbuster tailored for audiences seeking relentless on-screen destruction and audacious concepts.
