mblasio I have never been so appalled by anything ever. This movie made me wish I had never been born, just it would never have assaulted my eyes. There was no plot, the characters were strange and confusing, and the whole film was strange and atrocious. If I could complete one thing in life, and service mankind in one way, it would be to save anyone else from this true horror of an experience.

Charbel Elaro Moonrise Kingdom is directed by Wes Anderson and follows the journey of two children in 1965 on an island off the coast of New England. Anderson's unique style works incredibly well in this film, and that's thanks to perfect casting. The two leads being Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward give such captivating performances through their impressive line delivery. It would be very easy for this story to feel slow and disinteresting, but each cast member truly brings the script to life in the most entertaining way. As usual, this Wes Anderson film contains stunning cinematography and striking visuals through his use of pastel colours and artistic sets. The film also utilises music in such a great way, specifically in one iconic scene which contains a fantastic French song. For a risky style which is very prone to the notion of hit or miss, I truly believe Moonrise Kingdom hits the mark in every area. From plot to film making I cannot fault this quirky masterpiece. Moonrise Kingdom ticks every box for me so therefore I give it a 10.

thedarkknight-99999 Moonrise Kingdom is undeniably sweet, smart and charming, and the most whimsical and quirky Wes Anderson film before The Grand Budapest Hotel, but it's not his best film.(8/10)

Reinier De Vlaam This brilliant movie about a pre-teen boy and girl that fall in love and run away, leaving the people of the bourgeois island in hysteric panic (after they noticed the kids were gone and started to care), requires an odd sense of humor. If you do not have that, if you're as bourgeois as the islanders, it will be wasted on you. Otherwise you will be in for an amazing treat, full of absurd situations, relations, households, events and dialogues. And with people desperately trying to cope with their lives,in contrast with the young love of two outcasts.The whole movie from begin to end gets you of your feet, it is all close to normal, but just not that. The tree-house on the top of a thin stripped tree (commented as: "isn't that dangerous?") represents the whole atmosphere of the movie.Highly recommended
