At certain times, it feels like something is missing and it doesn't have a pretty strong plot, but its greatly animated with beautiful visuals and a good message.

Thoroughly enjoyed this movie. The right amount of humor and emotion. Colorful and creative while teaching how to cope with loss. I enjoyed learning more about the culture and myths of others. 10/10

The positive detail and accuracy and of the Chinese culture in this movie is refreshing. And how the writer was writing this movie for her family before her death made it extra special

The story and theme offer nothing original or special, but the animation is absolutely gorgeous in the “real” world and stunningly psychedelic in Lunaria (which was inspired by Pink Floyd’s The Dark Side of the Moon and the paintings of Joan Miró). In addition, there’s a group of supporting characters that add fun personalities, especially the adorable rabbit. Toss in a few Frozen-style musical numbers and a loving family thru line for that warm sweet effect. Even if the audience is obviously kids, parents will have plenty to enjoy with the snappy pacing and dazzling visuals. Expand

Interesting visual and eye-catching storyline. A mixture of emotion and comedic moments. It is worth taking a look.

I almost didn't watch this movie based on their cynical, heartless reviews. This is a beautiful movie and a breath of fresh air amidst the heap of animated product placement, commercialized nostalgia and agenda that is forced upon the general public as of late (Disney, ah hem). This movie has heart, story, imagination, and beauty. Both my two girls (4 and 2 years old) were captivated. I was captivated. My wife was captivated. Are you a fan of animated movies? Watch it.

Sarò sincero, mi ha sorpreso.

Certo, la storia non sarà nulla di originale, ma le musiche, l'animazione, il ritmo: semplicemente impressionante. Onestamente il migliore tra i candidati all'Oscar per il miglior film animato che ho visto
Sarò sincero, mi ha sorpreso.

Certo, la storia non sarà nulla di originale, ma le musiche, l'animazione, il ritmo: semplicemente impressionante. Onestamente il migliore tra i candidati all'Oscar per il miglior film animato che ho visto finora (con la sola assenza di Wolfwalkers).

Consigliato? Assolutamente, soprattutto per i nostalgici Disney.

While the story is fairly simple and a lot of things are not explained well or at all, this movie is imaginative, colorful, heartwarming, and a ton of fun.

The songs are good for the movie, but they don't stick with you after the movie is over. But, to me, that is to this movies benefit. This movie is a musical in the truest sense of the word. Every song shapes this movies identity and if you were to take any of these songs out of the movie to have them stand on their own (with the exception of one) they wouldn't do well. This is a good movie that you can sit with the family and enjoy. This movie is the reason you should be on the lookout for Pearl studios. Expand

Very strong musical theatre vibes. No knockout earworms but I really enjoyed each song as they were happening. I like the heart of this, the characters are fun and endearing and the colours are bright!

If Flash Gordon and the citizens of Mongo travelled the Factory of Willy Wonka, with a grown-up Boo as a hero and the most heart-wrenching opening since UP, you’d have the bones for the visual lullaby that is Over the Moon. Over the MoonIf Flash Gordon and the citizens of Mongo travelled the Factory of Willy Wonka, with a grown-up Boo as a hero and the most heart-wrenching opening since UP, you’d have the bones for the visual lullaby that is Over the Moon. Over the Moon packs a dozen characters fueled by energy drinks with surreal, madcap action at times, and a surprisingly upbeat soundtrack, flowing within a gentle story, quiet as the heartbeat of a sleeping child. Over the Moon is written by Audrey Wells (George of the Jungle), Jennifer Yee McDevitt, and Alice Wu, and directed by Glen Keane (writer, Tarzan, Pocahontas) and John Kahrs (Joe’s Apartment). It stars the voice talents of Cathy Ang (Age of Sail) as Fei Fei, Robert G. Chiu (Albert) as Chin, and a wonderfully zany performance by Ken Jeong (The Hangover, Crazy Rich Asians) as Gobi. Phillipa Soo (Hamilton) plays Chang’e, with John Cho (Star Trek) as Father, and Margaret Cho and Sandra Oh playing members of Fei Fei’s family. Fei Fei is a young girl, part of a quirky, loving Asian family, suddenly faced with a loss insurmountable, and unexplainable for a child. As the world around her moves from grief to momentum, Fei Fei leans upon an old tale told to her by her mother, about a moon goddess waiting forever for her true love, their reunion the only hope for happiness. As only a child can logic, Fei Fei knows only by traveling to the moon and delivering proof of the moon goddess to her family can she hope to keep them stuck in their loss, as she is, where they belong. While there are an impressive amount of visually beautiful and even rapid sequences in this movie, it rarely feels chaotic, and flows like a fairy tale of old, with a simple message of love at its core. While the idea of a child building and flying a rocket to the moon is absurd, the writers give Fei Fei a scientific mind that uses sound engineering, yet explained in the words of children, in the creation of her space craft. The hero of this movie is actually a rocket scientist; and it’s a girl! The music, bookending a booty-shaker by the moon goddess, is beautifully and thoughtfully written, including a silly yet measured performance by the delirious Ken Jeong. The cast is well thought through, with beautiful vocals by Cathy Ang who also manages to deliver wonder, angst, and determination as the young Fei Fei. Her family is wonderfully realized by a number of well recognized actors including John Cho, Margaret Cho, and Sandra Oh. Ken Jeong reels in his ridiculously zany persona to deliver a bizarre yet profound performance as Gobi, a lost space alien, who is often the soul of the film. In addition, Robert Chiu as the young Chin reminds us that the idea of new family, new happiness, and new love, is something to celebrate and cherish. I give Over the Moon 4/5 Stars and recommend it to literally everyone. Expand

A beautiful movie with a great message, but you can't join together the seriousness with the fantasy of this movie.
