Moonstruck Ratings & Reviews
Ty Leet
March 17, 2025
Need more of Nic Cage as a wolf.
Chicago Sun-Times
Roger Ebert
Reviews of the movie tend to make it sound like a madcap ethnic comedy, and that it is. But there is something more here, a certain bittersweet yearning that comes across as ineffably romantic, and a certain magical quality.
Philadelphia Inquirer
Carrie Rickey
Charming if erratic, Moonstruck is the unlikely marriage of undershirt-in- kitchen naturalism and urbane drawing-room farce.
New York Daily News
Chris Chase
This is a movie that makes you want to sing "Boheme" and walk in the moonlight and move to Brooklyn.
Chicago Tribune
Dave Kehr
It isn't great art -- it`s too closely concentrated on immediate emotional effect for that -- but it is highly sophisticated craftsmanship.
Chicago Tribune
Gene Siskel
You will not easily forget this incredibly robust family.
Entertainment Weekly
Chris Nashawaty
Norman Jewison's tiramisu-sweet romantic comedy is passionate and profound.
Reel Talk Online
Candice Frederick
At times funny and clever, Moonstruck asks the questions: what does it mean to be in love? and is it ever okay to settle?
Chicago Reader
Joel Siegel
Charmingly executed and hopeful, Moonstruck is a spun-sugar movie. It doesn't nourish the mind, but for those who aren't terribly demanding about their movie fare, it's a sweet treat.
Los Angeles Times
Sheila Benson
An American movie with foreign-film sensibilities, Moonstruck's depths come from their perfect balance of writing and direction.
Orlando Sentinel
Jay Boyar
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.
Variety
Variety Staff
Norman Jewison's film is a mostly appetizing blend of comedy and drama carried by snappy dialog and a wonderful ensemble full of familiar faces.
Video Review
Leonard Maltin
Moonstruck made me laugh, as any good comedy should. But this rare and wonderful movie did something more: It also made me smile. That's because, unlike most contemporary comedies, Moonstruck isn't a collection of gags. It's a picture of genuine humor.
New York Times
Janet Maslin
The title refers to one relative's theory that the full moon can make people wildly romantic, make them behave in wonderful, unpredictably crazy ways. Not crazy enough.
Washington Post
Rita Kempley
They're an irresistibly offbeat couple -- Cage playing on the edge, where he likes it; Cher creating a fairy-tale realist, captivating yet cautious.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
Most of the show belongs to Cher and Cage, both of whom are at their energetic best.
Associated Press
Linda Deutsch
Here, at last, is the kind of warm adult comedy that often eludes Hollywood an offbeat exploration of family, fidelity and the foibles of the human heart.
The New Yorker
Pauline Kael
Moonstruck isn't heartfelt; it's an honest contrivance -- the mockery is a giddy homage to our, desire for grand passion. With its own special lushness, it's a rose-tinted black comedy.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
Nutty ethnic romantic drama about an Italian-American family.
TIME Magazine
John Patrick Shanley's witty, shapely script puts an octet of New Yorkers under a lunar-tuney spell one romantic night. Cher shines brightest of all.
