Damn, it's really that bad? I was planning on seeing this too. Haven't even seen it on listing in my theater yet.

Saturday Update: A $10M movie based on a 22 year old reality TV series is decimating a $146M production based on a fatigued disaster movie genre this weekend. More to the point, Paramount’s Jackass Forever is rallying to a $20.7M No. 1 weekend win, well ahead of Lionsgate/Centropolis’ Roland Emmerich movie Moonfall which is earthbound at $9.1M.
I wouldn't say the genre is fatigued, but you need good execution to have a fun time. There's a seed of a fun, interesting idea in Moonfall but the execution is poor.
shareWW gross is $45m. But it just opened in China and they love bad sci fi.
