Moonrise Kingdom



Tali: Moonrise Kingdom is the latest by acclaimed filmmaker Wes Anderson. The movie follows two young teens as they run away together on a small island, and all of the mischief and chaos that surrounds him. I have fallen completely head-over-heels in love with this film; There is so much I can say about this film I don't even know where to begin. Wes Anderson's movies always have a very beautiful feel to them - every frame is like a photograph, all of the music is carefully and perfectly selected, and the depth of the characters adds to the aesthetic beauty of the film. That aside, the story is brilliantly executed, a perfect balance of hilarity and sadness, and an amazing message. Simply divine.

Leo: Moonrise Kingdom is one of those movies that feels like a children's film but simply is not. It takes all of the usual restrictions out of a children's film and replaces them with even more exciting perspectives. The way the movie was filmed basically summarizes all of the movies Wes Anderson has done. The zooming in and out to take the awkward scenes to a new level is typical of Wes Anderson. The story is feel-good and at the same time interesting and really fun to watch. One of the best movies I've seen in a long time. Please see it.
