Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.

Sammy-Jo Cervantes There are moments that feel comical, some horrific, and some downright inspiring but the tonal shifts hardly matter as the end results come to a film that's perfect for this time.

Billie Morin This movie feels like it was made purely to piss off people who want good shows

Skyler Great movie. Not sure what people expected but I found it highly entertaining.

Nick Dets Dagmar Hirtz's "Moondance" isn't the refreshing film about the tests of brotherhood that it should have been. It has the innocent tone of children's literature, but this becomes a problem when serious questions arise. The story follows brothers Dominic and Patrick. There is a considerable age difference between them. Their parents are vacant, and Dominic takes care of his younger brother- but makes sure they always have a good time in the process. There are amusing scenes following their adventures (don't miss the living-room shootout), and I loved that the perpetual cycle of pleasure rebelliously boxes out education and order. Eventually, Patrick is forced to be tutored by a beautiful young woman named Anya. The two brothers fall in love with her for their own reasons, and their strong bond becomes frail as she learns she can only love Dominic. Heavier subject matter is brought up with her arrival, and the problems arise in this section of the film. It is hard to be compelled by the dilemmas thrown at the boys when the atmosphere in the film is so kid-friendly. Also, there is a very gratuitous sex scene that throws "Moondance"s innocent feel completely off, tarnishing the film completely. There is of course the Van Morrison soundtrack that many will be attracted to. Listen to his CDs, or download his music, but do not rent "Moondance"!

km004a5534 This is a powerful and moving story which encaptulates everything that is good in movies. Good acting, beautiful scenery,sensational music, and a moving story which takes the viewer on a journey through the full gamut of emotions and wrenches at the very heart-strings. The close relationship between two fun-loving brothers comes under threat when a beautiful, sensitive girl arrives on the scene. As the younger brother comes of age, the inevitable jealousy, confusion, rivalry and lust place their brotherly love in jeopardy. The only certainty is that nothing can ever be the same again. With a strong touch of Irish good humour and an animal story thrown in for good measure, I, unhesitatingly, give this movie 10 out of 10.

marcbina This is truly a great movie. The not so original idea of two brothers falling in love with the same woman and a young boy's first encounter with the (delicious) complications of love and sex are very brightly shown in "Moondance". Add to this a very intense - but not aggressively explicit - sensual atmosphere that reaches its climax in the scene Dominic and Anya play with, er..., some blue ink (definitely one of the sexiest scenes I've ever seen!) and great Van Morrison music and you've got a movie that is really a wonderful experience. So my suggestion is: get a bottle of good wine, find good company and enjoy this movie!

Otfried I vote the 10 because of the intensive and deep emotional atmosphere, the acting of Marianne Faithful and most of the great music by Van Morrison.
