Juandi Jul 6 Finally got around to watching this for the first time & wow what a story. Great acting performances & such a heartfelt storyline. It definitely leaves you wanting more of it by the end. I hope everyone involved with this film is very proud of their work. See more Angie Jun 23 literally ive seen this movie 5 times and finally for the 6th time I got to see it on screen. this movie will never not make me emotional and I mean when I say this is the perfect movie. One of the few times I see a movie handle a subject like this one so tenderly but with so much passion and do it correctly. watch it immediately. See more Lucas H 06/19/2021 this was an interesting experience, the movie was good and very sad sometimes, I expected something different but it was good never the less, the ending is very abrupt tho See more Lucile F @lucile_fl 3d The film tells the story of Chiron, a young black man growing up amongst violence and substance abuse and attempting to find his way through life despite the hardships that it puts him through. Moonlight is a slow, cinematic piece in the sense that it is not overdramatised and does not necessarily reach a climax. Instead, it’s strength lie in the themes that it touches upon with extreme sensitivity: identity and belonging, masculinity, homosexuality amongst the black American community, morality, addiction… The film does contain some very poignant moments - Chiron’s heartfelt relationship with Kevin or when his most authentic, vulnerable self seeps through his newfound « hard » identity - but it remains somewhat unsatisfying nevertheless; it feels like the director spreads himself too thin, introducing a surplus of concepts and ideas with a lot of potential but failing to explore them to their full extent, therefore lacking depth and a sense of closure. See more Matteo D @Xmattew 6d I really don't get the hype. i understand the character arc and it's cool i guess but surely nothing new. the movie is very boring at parts, the relashionship with his mother is interesting but not strong enough to save the hole film. The visuals are nice, good camera work See more Johannes S @RT64416087 Aug 6 Great story, great acting, good camera work with some artistic shots. It is on the slower side and takes it's time to develop. See more Read all reviews
