"A pair of young lovers flee their New England town, which causes a local search party to fan out and find them."

Moonrise Kingdom is a movie directed by Wes Anderson. Sets in 1965, in a remote coastal city, this movie tells a story about two 12 years old chilren. Sam, a talented khaki scout who has a very distinguished personality than the others. Suzy, a troubled child who is not happy with her own family. They meet accidentaly in a chruch and they have been writting letters to each other since then. Dissatisfied with life they're living, and looking for adventures, they begin a journey through the wilderness together. Their missing put everyone in chaos, and so the hunting begins.

This movie is really beautiful, it's just briliant. The story is simple, and is told very straightfully.

The main characters are potrayed as two naive children who are looking for something bigger that what they know. Their love story is also really interesting, although these two may don't seem to match each other and there seems to be lack of interaction at the beginning, you can't help but be drawn to their relationship.
It's just really sweet.

The movie captures the naivity, the magical and adventurous side of children and it also shows the awkwardness of being a pre-teenager. But they're not the only stars in the story, the other supporting characters also build a considerable amount of the main story.

I won't say it's a funny movie, but there surely some great scenes that will make you laugh and smile throughout the movie.

It has great casts, beautiful cinematic shots, arousing soundtrack, and magical atmosphere.
It's a briliant movie indeed :)

4/5 stars
