Episode 24: MOONRISE KINGDOM- Movie Review

  
      Moonrise Kingdom is directed by Wes Anderson and stars Jared Gilman, Kara Hayward, Bruce Willis, Edward Norton, and Bill Murray. In Moonrise Kingdom, a pair of young lovers flee their New England town,  which causes a search party to fan out and find them. I was pleasantly suprised by Moonrise Kingdom because of the acting. The two main leads are in their first film and they killed it. The boy, Jared Gilman was really good and the girl, Kara Hayward was also. Bruce Willis gave what was  probably my favorite performance in the movie. Bill Murray and Edward Norton were fantastic too. This movie is also very hilarious. There are some scenes that had me laughing like crazy.
    This movie is in limited release but if you have a chance to see it, you should because this is a great movie. However, there is one small problem that I had with Moonrise Kingdom. During the movie, you keep hearing about an upcoming storm and by the time the storm occurs, there are too many things going on. At the end, it get's a little hectic and it keeps cutting to different stories. Overall, I am going to give Moonrise Kingdom a 9/10.
