The Cat and the Moon

No idea what all the hating is all about with these reviews. People offended by real life stuff?

None of these characters felt fake or contrived. The writing was good as well as some excellent performances. Watch it. It is very good work.

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.

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.

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.

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.
