Movie Description
In this glowingly atmospheric comedy, a young Italian-American woman, bitter after having been widowed by a speeding bus, makes a practical decision to marry a longtime friend for stability and security, even though her feelings for him are tepid at best. But when she falls in love with her fiance's estranged one-handed younger brother, screwball sparks fly. Great, subtle performances and a warm regard for the film's Bronx milieu highlight the film.

New York Times - p.C22 - Janet Maslin

"...Cher and Nicolas Cage are both solid and appealing....[The film has] an endearing spirit..."
Variety - Camb.

"...MOONSTRUCK is such nourishing comedy. It satisfies every hunger..."
Los Angeles Times - Sheila Benson (12/16/1987)

"...A romantic comedy founded on emotional abandon and poignant truth..."
Chicago Sun-Times - Roger Ebert (06/22/2003)

"Cher was at her Oscar-winning best as an Italian-American widow resigned to a sensible second marriage, who ends up falling hard for her fiance's pointedly unsensible brother." -- Grade: B+
Entertainment Weekly - Entertainment Weekly Staff (04/21/2006)

"MOONSTRUCK is a charming film in which a mischievous moon enlightens the lives of many in New York City's Little Italy district."
