Slow pace in the most part of the movie.

if their story seems completely bonkers, almost like a feverish work of fiction, you ain't heard nothing yet.

The acting in this movie is really good.

Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.

This story is such an interesting one as it does not focus on 'defeating a villain' or getting somewhere or even doing anything. No, this film follows Bonnie on her recovery from a traumatic event just trying to live her life. Not trying to capture the bad guy, just trying to deal with what happened as best she can.The subplot of the police trying to find the rapist is commonly brought up throughout but is dropped when they cannot id him. I genuinely thought the story would pursue this plot and it would turn out that Bonnie would already know her attacker but i am very glad it did not. If it had done, it would have taken some of the focus from Bonnie and her story. The conflict is very clearly at the start but the rest of the film holds it's own and tells a great story. A story of normal people living their normal lives, all whilst dealing with what has happened to Bonnie, most importantly Bonnie dealing with herself.Very well made film, great acting, writing and direction.

This film really moved me. It is an intense journey but well worth it. It has a naturalism and realism that is rare to find. The story is simple but not easy. A woman, Bonnie, is raped one night walking home from a bar early in the film and spends the rest of the film trying to find a way to move forward with her life. The director and writer, Jessica Thompson, brings her characters to life in such a way that you really want to walk down this road with them. The drive of the film is not from any gimmicks or tricks, just a clear eyed appraisal of real people having real struggles. Stephanie Beatriz brings the lead role, Bonnie, to life in a courageous and moving performance, layered and rich. Many of the supporting actors also did great work. I also really connected with Conrad Ricamora, who plays her best friend. This story is one that would resonate at any time, but given this moment in our history where a dark history of sexual assault is finally getting to be acknowledged, it could not have come out at a better time.

Light of the Moon is a unique film, approaching the subject of rape in a sobering, relatable way. The movie begins with a stylish architect who goes out for a typical Brooklyn-night-out with friends and is assaulted on her walk home. What's remarkable and most disturbing about this movie is how it pragmatic it presents the awful crime of rape. The residual events are rational and never over dramatic as the story follows Bonnie's psychology and that of her boyfriend's through the weeks the couple attempts at resolving the incident, sometimes through awkward moments, and sometimes through tearful fights. After all, the world continues to turn around Bonnie despite what happened to her. The dialogues are visceral as we understand the feelings of Bonnie as she accuses those around her for treating her like a victim, while simultaneously we empathize with her boyfriend and his point of view. This is an eye opening film.

A movie of passion, occupational conflicts and real contradiction. As a real life drama it is very good. It reflects every corner of human life. A life full of uncontrollable emotions..A mind with ups and downs..A thought without proper destination. This type of dramas need a good submerging plot and this movie has got it surely. It starts with the story of a female architect. Her successful carrier and her decorated life. But soon the life is doomed with her several conflicts..Conflicts regarding her work...her personal relations..her personal life...her struggles and frustations. All these makes it a complex form of daily life. The ultimate question arises about her survival against all odds..all these negativity of her life.Those who likes to see action and thriller movies will find a little interest in it. But those who like to see dramas and also like to explore the human expressions and emotions will enjoy it. It has no mystery or high voltage special effect to entertain you. But it can make you really nostalgic. It can touch your mind and can produce emotional outburst from you. Stephanie Beatriz has done well in the central role. I have never seen her before. But in this character she is quite well tolerable and her expressions, cry, dialogue delivery all make the film more attractive.Most of our life are full of success and struggle. This movie is also such type. So in a nut shell it can be said that it is a movie of our life..It is a movie made for us....
