5 stars out of 5 -- [I]t’s a superbly crafted piece of work that frequently takes a sledgehammer to the stereotypes too easily associated with African-American cinema.

Rating: 5/5 -- Moonlight is one of those films that play out like a huge build up towards an emotionally taut final act. Some will find the climax too understated but that's exactly what makes it feel real and powerful, just like the rest of the story. Full Review

[I]n its quietly radical grace, it’s a cultural watershed -- a work that dismantles all the ways our media view young black men and puts in their place a series of intimate truths.

MOONLIGHT is an astonishingly accomplished work -- rich, sensuous and tactile, by turns heartbreaking and uplifting.

MOONLIGHT is magic. So intimate you feel like you're trespassing on its characters’ souls, so transcendent it's made visual and emotional poetry out of intensely painful experience, it's a film that manages to be both achingly familiar and unlike anything we've seen before.

It will forever live as one of the most profoundly touching and mesmerizing films with a fantastic, diverse cast that demonstrated the power of intersectionality. Full Review

Product Description:

This drama charts the life of a black gay youth named Chiron as he grows up in a rough neighborhood in Miami. In the first segment, Chiron is a ten-year-old nicknamed "Little" (Alex Hibbert) who is taken in by a kindhearted Cuban drug dealer (Mahershala Ali) and his girlfriend (Janelle Monáe). In the middle installment, a teenage Chiron (Ashton Sanders) explores his sexuality as he falls in love with a close friend. The final chapter follows Chiron in his twenties (Trevante Rhodes) as he reconnects with faces from his past. Directed by Barry Jenkins, MOONLIGHT was adapted from a short play called In Moonlight Black Boys Look Blue by Tarell Alvin McCraney.
