I don't think this film looks at really complex themes, but they're resonant, heartfelt themes nonetheless, and coming from a Mexican film it's rare that it looks at the issues that it does. The main cast are all pretty great, some more than others. Some of the stories resonated with me more than others, and some were overall more effective than others. They're simple, but effective. It's great that Mexico is at least letting films like these be made, and I really appreciate its ambition. I hope it's able to be seen by more people because it really deserves it. Overall, very resonant and very well-made. Definitely recommended for anyone interested.
Four gay themed plots with attractive, competent actors, and a decent script. OMG....none of the characters smoked....thank the lord. No drug fests either. But there were nude frontals and a bathhouse orgy. Nice to see masculine men displaying some hardcore emotional breakdowns, which tends to happen for two reasons....death of loved ones or the death of a romance. We find a bit of both, but mostly the latter in this film. Can't believe this was made in Mexico. Thank you.....this was free on Youtube in the USA.

This film approaches the topics in a great way. It's fantastic that a Mexican film is finally taking this topic seriously. I think reducing the story from four moons to the 2 sides of the moon it would have been better. Two stories well developed would have been great.
Acting was good and the way it was film was nice too. It tried to avoid clichés but it fell in a few. The stories are believable and feel real. You can identify even if you are not gay.
Totally recommended to watch, I hope more film like this keep coming.
We need positive portrayal of gay people especially in Latin American films

in fact, not only for the stories . but for science to transform each in universal message. in the most delicate/inspired manner. for the acting. and for the feeling to discover every day cases just from the next street. for the web of ages, options and wise solutions. for the image of vulnerability of characters who transforms the film not in a pledge/ portrait /lesson /manifesto but in scenes from reality. a film who seduces. for the rare and admirable manner to be more than a film about a community. for the courage to be different. and to not looking a precise target. because, more than love stories, each level is a sketch of self definition. out of rules. out of ambition to give the right way. and that transforms Four Moons in a real special movie.
It amazes me with all the talent and money in Hollywood that Gay films are generally so lousy. Except for a couple of films like GBF and The Geography Club there have been almost no good gay films in the past year or so. There are big director pretentious movies like Philadelphia or Broke Back Mountain in the past, but we need something more real and less hysterically depressing. This film is sweetly wonderful and true to life. Watching is like hearing the stories of people I have known. The well chosen actors give beautiful performances. The story telling is almost perfect. Chemistry between the leads is excellent and believable. When someone starts talking up an American gay director who makes a lot of product that isn't very good and acts like people should settle for it, I would rather read subtitles and see a movie of this caliber instead. Some of the very best Gay films are coming from outside of our borders where gifted directors are making very good films without huge budgets or overpaid actors. I have seen some excellent Gay films this year, none of them come from Hollywood.
