Movie Reviews

Chicago Sun-Times - 9/10 by Roger EbertDespite its flaws, despite its gaps, despite two key scenes that are dreadfully wrong, Shoot the Moon contains a raw emotional power of the sort we rarely see in domestic dramas.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC) - 9/10 by Ken HankeNot Parker's best, but done with uncanny precision.
Washington Post - 8/10 by Gary ArnoldEven Parker's direction, with its unerring sense of pace, cannot disguise an awkwardly episodic narrative which just cannot find a sense of an ending.
Slant Magazine - 8/10 by Dan CallahanParker and Goldman seem to want this battling couple to represent a sort of romantic '60s point of view, and they show up the younger lovers as shallow, '70s-style hedonists.
Video-Reviewmaster.com - 8/10 by Steve CrumHigh drama, albeit depressing, with Keaton and Finney in strong leads.
Christian Science Monitor - 8/10 by David SterrittAt its best, Shoot the Moon is as spare and as sharp in its detail as fine prose and as continuously surprising.
Ozus' World Movie Reviews - 7/10 by Dennis SchwartzAdds nothing much to the genre of family dramas.
Boston Globe - 7/10 by Bruce McCabeDivorce and separation are subjects too important to be treated in the bizarre way Alan Parker treats them in Shoot the Moon which is a film with lots of emotion but no heart.
Washington Post - 5/10 by Judith MartinFinney and Keaton each have their heavy dramatic moments, but there is nothing in writer Bo Goldman's script that hasn't been seen and heard in a thousand other films.
User Review - 10/10 by Kayla EThe best movie ever. Life, love, loss. But strength throughout.
