Quite Brilliant.

Rating: 9/10 (26 September 2012)

Beautiful, Cute and boasting of very good and mature performances from the young duo of Jared Gilman and Kaya Hayward along with great supporting roles by the remaining cast, stunning visual scenery's and extremely good cinematography and a brilliant background score by Alexandre Desplat, Moonrise Kingdom is an extreme pleasing and enjoyable watch which is what it is due to the hard work and dedication of Director-Writer, Wes Anderson who has shown this unique movie brilliantly.
The Story which is written by Anderson and Roman Coppola, is about two young lovers Sam(Jared) and Suzy(Kara) who are neglected and mis-treated by their families and decide to run away from their relatives and live a life of their own together and how their adventures begin after they run away and a search party is put to find them and bring them back.
The Young duo of Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward have given really impressive and mature performances as the young lovers who decide to run away, and their expressions,dialogue delivery everything is quite perfect and they learnt very well from a very good director. The Supporting Cast of Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, Bill Murray and Frances McDormand who are the recognised actors in the movie also do a very good job in their respective roles and Tilda Swinton also did a great job for her little role in the movie. Overall, the ensemble cast have really done brilliantly here and all of the actors have portrayed their characters really well.
Wes Anderson is a real different and unique director who really makes a movie which are brilliant in all sections, and again has done the same here by showing the audience a adolescence romantic movie mixed with drama and comedy which really pleases all audiences and he has utilized the brilliant cast which was given to him to its most potential and also has organized all the other sections of the movie perfectly and by writing the movie he utilized and showed the story perfectly to the audience. He really used his crew perfectly and made a movie which can be enjoyed by everyone.
Now I don't really like Romantic stories or movies for that matter but this one was quite cleverly written and is also quite unique and you don't have a choice but to be pleased by its ability to keep you stuck in the movie and Anderson has done a brilliant job in written this very original story with a tinge of comedy and good dialogues which are delivered well by the actors. The Movie was'nt much of a drag either and was to the point, so the editing was done quite nicely.
The Cinematography in this is really brilliant and the island is shown so superbly even in the storm sequences that you can't help but get mesmerized by the beauty of the nature, the cinematographer Robert Yeoman really has done well with the lighting and camera-shot from high places. The Music which was given by well known Music Director Alexandre Desplat was absolutely brilliant and beautiful, the back-ground score was amazing and every sequence is backed up with brilliant classical music and other type of music which really fits in with the sequences. Desplat may as well get an Oscar for this, he has really done an admirable job.
Well Moonrise Kingdom is definitely a must-watch for anyone who likes to watch good movie and all audiences are bound to enjoy it and get pleased by it.
