“Don’t Come Back From The Moon” (** out of four) was a hazy and distant adaptation of Dean Bakopoulos’ 2005 novel about a young boy (Jeffrey Wahlberg) who lives with his mom (Rashida Jones) and little brother (Zackary Arthur) and they try to keep it together when their father walks out on them and find that fathers abandoning their families has become a recurring trend in their small desert town. Director Bruce Thierry Cheung shows some flair for mood and pretty imagery but film unfortunately has little plot and never gathers any significant momentum as it plods along. James Franco has a small but key role as the boy’s father.
