Underneath the Same Moon

Thus was a decent story , but the female lead was just not likeable enough to sell the part.

The characters just didn't match or flow together.

The male lead needed a stronger actor and more compatible female actor to make the story believable.

I din't expect much from this when I first started watching it. Sara Ball is far too cutesy almost like a teen. Meg Cashel is too riveting by far as the kooky but lovable sister, and Anderson Davies is far too handsome and clean cut to have any depth. As the film progressed it leaked corny and oozed cheesy and yet the great dialogue and the intense chemistry between Ball and Anderson kept me watching. The score was amazing because it did not overwhelm like most recent films, the story was about the people and what they had to say and not about loud music playing. The direction and editing was excellent so the film played out smoothly and exactly as you'd expect it to, keeping a fast pace but without missing anything out. At the end it actually moved me to tears by the sheer force and excellence of the acting in the final scenes. All in all a beautiful film, beautifully done and left me with a beautiful feeling.

This is a well made "chick-flick" romance drama! It's a plot that may be familiar to some which is welcome. One of the biggest strengths of this film is it's acting which was stellar.

This movie is heart wrenching but mixes in my kind of silly humor. Not your typical rom com that sticks to a predetermined formula for success but rather breaks the rules and grounds itself in reality. Life (and love) is messy and I appreciate when filmmakers showcase the good, bad and ugly. Watch and enjoy!

The movie between the two main characters which were married, is good chemistry. However, the lowbrow relief comedy by the sister is uncomfortable and destroys the film. Farting in a dressing room and Pickering her nose at a traffic light, were misplaced and disgusting lowbrow humor. Remove the sister from the movie or replace all her lines and this could of been a winner, instead it was a real B movie.
