Moonrise Kingdom | Ratings & Reviews

"Represents a sort of non-magical Neverland -- that momentous instant when the world can seem so small and a naive crush can feel all-consuming."

VarietyVariety

"Non-fans might call it over-familiar comfort cinema but with the craft so loving and new elements so well-integrated, his singular pitch remains a thing to cherish."

Total FilmTotal Film

"Anderson's romantic fantasia is after something much more complicated and profound-an ever-renewing balance between the hopes of youth and the disappointments of age."

Time OutTime Out

"Breezes along with a beautifully coordinated admixture of droll humor, deadpan and slapstick."

The New York TimesThe New York Times

"A very charming, beautifully wrought, if somehow depthless film - eccentric but heartfelt, and thought through to the tiniest, quirkiest detail in the classic Anderson style."

The GuardianThe Guardian

"The success of "Moonrise Kingdom" depends on its understated gravity. None of the actors ever play for laughs or put sardonic spins on their material."

Roger EbertRoger Ebert

"Primarily, this is a film to be savoured for it’s hyper-ornate visual schemes: each one more splendid and breathtaking than the previous."

Little White LiesLittle White Lies

"This is a Wes Anderson film -- more lightweight than some, possessing a stronger emotional undertow than others -- that will strike the uninitiated as conspicuously arch."

Hollywood ReporterHollywood Reporter

"As funny, bittersweet and as distinct as you’d expect from Wes Anderson, a director who helps you know you are not alone. Terrific performances from sprogs to stars and a lovely sense of the sorrow and joy of growing up."
