A Trip to the Moon mostly reminded me of watching a filmed play rather than a movie. It was still amazing though that for the time period they were able to include basic special effects. The scenes were designed to create a false sense of depth. I could imagine how the audience would have been wowed at the time, with relatively smooth transitions and effects where the film was cut and something on stage changed looked somewhat believable. I think this, for the time, is very whimsical and forward thinking film for science fiction.
