Vashirdfel Simply A Masterpiece

MamaGravity good back-story, and good acting

Glimmerubro It is not deep, but it is fun to watch. It does have a bit more of an edge to it than other similar films.

Gutsycurene Fanciful, disturbing, and wildly original, it announces the arrival of a fresh, bold voice in American cinema.

amandurson I don't care if this seems to "stage play", who cares. Just because a movie can go all over and have many different settings doesn't mean it has to. This reads very well on screen and I love the dark comedy-ness of it. The acting is amazing, I love all four of the actors in this especially Meg Ryan and Kristen Bell. The only thing I didn't like was the last 2-4 minutes, it could have ended in a more clever way or a more interesting way or something. But all in all this was a great movie and I laughed and it made me think and just wonderful. I will be putting this on my list of favourite Meg Ryan movies and would watch it again and also recommend other people to watch it. I can't stress how much I loved the acting, it was cast very well and the monologue Timothy Hutton has was done so well he should be/have been nominated for an award for that monologue alone. I love how character driven the plot is, it doesn't try to put on a flashy show it just is words and characters.

napierslogs "Serious Moonlight" deserves to be seen for a number of reasons.First, it is written by the late Adrienne Shelly (best known for "Waitress" (2007)). After her death, her husband set up the Adrienne Shelly Foundation to help women pursue their film-making dreams. Money earned from her films goes towards this foundation.Second, there are a lot of elements in this film that are pretty original which seems to be a hard feat to accomplish for most films today.Third, the interesting casting choices, which give us the pleasure of seeing Meg Ryan and Timothy Hutton in mature, grown up roles but acting childishly-stupid with glimmers of maturity and wisdom. After seeing this movie, I believe they are the only actors who could pull it off so beautifully. Add to this, Justin Long in a funny and very surprising role, and then the adorable Kristin Bell who for once is actually playing a character less-accomplished than the average woman her age."Serious Moonlight" is a romantic comedy of sorts where we have a husband divorcing his wife so he can be with his younger mistress. Include a couple criminal activities and all plans get thrown out the window. Every turn in this movie is funny, original, thoughtful, and romantic - in its own weird way.I recommend spending your money on "Serious Moonlight". Rest in Peace, Adrienne.

witster18 Nothing more than a dull rehash of their relationship in 'French Kiss'. Same movie without the hot locales and the sense of a purpose/climax that was present in that much earlier, and far more enjoyable film starring Meg And Tim.Every single relationship issue turns into one cliché' after another - and I hate to use the word 'cliche' in a review. Serious Moonlight fails in every attempt to be serious and every attempt to be funny. This is an awful film.Avoid at all costs.May qualify for the years ten worst... I mean we're only half way through the year, but this is one strong candidate. Save your money!25/100

Julio Assis Poor story, characters helplessly shallow. OK, my dear selfish insecure psychotic wife, I'll keep this marriage because I'm deeply sorry for you and, by the way and all of a sudden, I love you again. And keep throwing vases at me, because my head doesn't get hurt, it doesn't bleed'as well. When the story was tied, a thief comes from out of nowhere driving a little tractor, and he wants to know the poor man's history and he is not in a hurry to run away with the stolen objects, and the silly mistress, the tied women quarreling, the thorough police investigation...The strange and stereotyped happy ending suggests that the movie ran out of budget so that they had to finish it, although it was really about time...A huge waste of time.
