The Cat and the Moon

When it first started I didn't know what to expect. The emotional depth explored in this movie is magical. It has hints of some of the best New York directors. There were so many great parts of this movie I could rewatch a thousand times. I highly recommend you watch it and experience something absolutely unique. Spectacular.

I didn't really like this movie, it's not a bad movie but there are movies that do it a lot better.

The movie is about love and loss but you never really feel empathy for nick and the situation he is in. A main reason I feel this way is because there are no consequences for his actions he effects other with no sense of consideration for others and their well being maybe that was intentional but still it could have been portrayed a lot better.

What I liked -The characters weren't all predictable -The actors and actresses in this film did fine overall ( it wasn't great acting just decent)

Alex wolf did a good job with the character nick's self destructiveness and violent behaviour.

But at the end of the day I feel like the movie takes too long to get there and by the end you are just unsatisfied and some people may not care.

I certainly wouldn't give this movie a 10 no it's not great and I agree with another reviewer it's horribly paced and I do think some of these reviews are fake but it's fine I've seen worse would I watch it again ? No I wouldn't the movie is forgettable to put it nicely.

4/10

This movie was absolutely amazing. I enjoyed the story so much, it made me both happy&sad, made me laugh& cry and also feel so many different emotions/connections with each character. Alex WROTE AND DIRECTED this movie and he did a damn good job. He's a convincing and captivating storyteller. Definitely a fun movie to watch and most definitely worth every penny. You won't be disappointed, in fact you'll want to see it again and again.

Was this movie perfect? No. Great films are rarely perfect, and yes this movie is great. It is a bit of a roller coaster ride,but one that keeps you interested from one scene to the next. There are all too familiar situations of reckless youth -and the terrible anger and despair of manic depression that often goes with it. I often thought of my own youth during this film,and how lucky i was to live through the more foolish times -when making stupid mistakes was a daily occurence. Performances are brilliant and inspired and the screenplay is excellent. Yes this is a film about a bunch of rich,selfish New York City kids, who are finding out who they really are; warts and all. IMO it should at the very least have a critic rating of 7.5, you should see it for yourself- you might agree.

Let menjustvstart hy saying Alex Wolff is the brightest upcoming star working today.

There are several fake reviews on here trying to raise the overall rating of this movie but there is no need for this. This is what will turn more people off than on to what turned out to be one of the most amazing directorial debuts I have ever seen. "The Cat and the Moon" is a passion project if I ever saw one. Actor Alex Wolff treks into unfamiliar territory as writer/director AND actor to give us the truest and his most visionary take on his "back pocket" script. A great cast, great music, good locations and design, good direction..this movie is near perfect.. I am 29 years old but if I saw this movie when I was 18 it would have changed my life... Like the director, I am also a Scorpio and was born on Nov 2nd so I can fully feel where Wolff is coming from. It's like this movie was catered to me..His character reminds me of myself at that age. I can feeel his passion seeping through the screen. This is a deeply felt film from the heart and it made me, A grown man, cry through out. I have never quite seen anything like it. I grew up in a similar way to Nick.. I can relate with some of his emotions.. I had a very similar type of friend group and just so much of it hit home for me. I give Alex Wolff a lot of credit for stepping up and making this movie happen. He is young but clearly has the drive. He is handsome, very talented and fun to watch and he is going to blossom into an even more unique artist as time goes on. This movie isn't for everyone but once it truly finds its audience it will shine bright like the city lights.
