Review of Moonlight (2016) by Imthenoob — 19 Feb 2017

All hype imo. I expected so much more from such a critically acclaimed film. I thought the whole adult section was a disappointment. He becomes his harden criminal and yet he is so easy to forgive his mother, a junkie who treated him like garbage, and rekindle the love he had with his friend, whom he had a one off encounter with before going to jail. It just doesn't really feel satisfying to me.

Also, I think it would have been more interesting seeing him in his Teen/Adult years. To see how he got into the world of drugs and how he became the man he is today. That would have been really interesting to see. This film has easily been the most overrated film I've seen since Avatar.
