Cher and Nicolas Cage have a ball in this ethnic comedy of manners, and there are moments of pure magic when moonlight does its romantic work.

You will not easily forget this incredibly robust family.

Charming if erratic, Moonstruck is the unlikely marriage of undershirt-in- kitchen naturalism and urbane drawing-room farce.
February 07, 2014
This charming comedy show [Cher] at her warm and supple best.
February 07, 2014
Cher is simply wonderful, and the teaming with Cage an inspiration. The rest of the cast couldn't be better.

This is a movie that makes you want to sing "Boheme" and walk in the moonlight and move to Brooklyn.

An American movie with foreign-film sensibilities, Moonstruck's depths come from their perfect balance of writing and direction.
February 07, 2014
No resistance could overcome the overfamiliarity of the situations in Moonstruck, the corniness of its dramaturgy or the banality of its message.

There's an old-fashioned romanticism about the picture, a sweet, gentle approach to love and family life. But this is kept from seeming sappy by the picture's tough-minded, almost abrasive sense of humor.
October 14, 2013
It's sweet and harmless and very well meaning.

It isn't great art -- it`s too closely concentrated on immediate emotional effect for that -- but it is highly sophisticated craftsmanship.
