Woooo! I only vaguely knew what the movie was about...I wasn't prepared for the wave of emotions! Beautifully done, and very REAL.

Moonlight is a film that will leave you entertained and satisfied by the end. A look into what it means to be gay when your world asks you to be hard.

Definitely one of the realist films I have seen since I could remember. The acting was superb, nothing was over exaggerated. A must see!

Over all pretty boring. Not worth seeing. Watch Logan or King Kong instead. I could not relate to the reviews at all because everyone seems to think this is the best movie ever when really the movie is just a statement piece

Original story but could of used the 3rd person narrative treatment to make up for lack of dialogue.

Moonlight is gorgeous and yet bleak, uplifting and yet sobering, exhilarating but also grounded in some unshakable realities.

Moonlight is magic. So intimate you feel like you're trespassing on its characters souls, so transcendent it's made visual and emotional poetry out of intensely painful experience, it's a film that manages to be both achingly familiar and unlike anything we've seen before.

Moonlight is hypnotic not just as a character study, or as a coming-of-age story. It's hypnotic as a performance piece, full of flawless portrayals of a kid figuring out who he is, not just in relation to other people, but in relation to himself.
