Movie Reviews

Slate - 9/10 by David EdelsteinThe elements in A Walk on the Moon, which is directed by the actor Tony Goldwyn (the bad guy in "Ghost") and written by Pamela Gray, feel miraculously right.
The New York Times - 9/10 by Elvis MitchellEven when it turns turbulent, the film sustains its warm summer glow, and makes itself a conversation piece about the moral issues it means to raise.
Newsweek - 9/10 by Laura ShinA Walk on the Moon not only effectively captures the emotional development of all its characters, but it also neatly encapsulates the tumult of the 60s.
Kalamazoo Gazette - 9/10 by James Sanfordwould make a fine companion piece to Ang Lee's 'The Ice Storm,' another tale of unhappy people trying to find themselves -- or lose themselves -- in other people's beds.
Rolling Stone - 8/10 by Peter TraversWhenever the drama drifts into soap opera, the actors restore the balance.
The New Yorker - 8/10 by David DenbyThe actor Tony Goldwyn, directing his first movie, and working from a fine screenplay by Pamela Gray, beautifully captures a moment in which the straitened moral world of the lower-middle-class Jewish characters is beginning to open up -- with necessarily painful results.
San Francisco Chronicle - 8/10 by Ruthe SteinFirst-time director Tony Goldwyn (scion of the family that started MGM) brings a freshness to an old story.
Chicago Tribune - 8/10 by Michael WilmingtonA nostalgia movie that doesn't get sticky with false sentiment.
ReelViews - 8/10 by James BerardinelliMoments of light comedy keeps the tone from becoming too heavy without sabotaging the movie's dramatic underpinning.
Village Voice - 8/10 by Abby McGanney NolanTony Goldwyn, making his directorial debut, lets his cast do the work for him, and they hold up well.
