As with all of his movies, Wes Anderson put an unmistakable authorial stamp on Moonrise Kingdom. With carefully composed shots and meticulous in-camera editing, Moonrise Kingdom exemplifies the changes that Anderson made to his live-action filmmaking after crossing over into stop-motion animation for Fantastic Mr. Fox. From symmetrical compositions...
Anderson’s young leads, Jared Gilman and Kara Hayward, managed to bring a relatable, naturalistic acting style to Moonrise Kingdom, despite their characters’ cartoonish Andersonian eccentricities.

Sweet, sentimental movies like this hold up to countless rewatches. With bright, saturated colors and idealized storytelling, Moonrise Kingdomfeels like a childhood memory. It takes place in 1965 to ...
In one of his many collaborations with Anderson, Alexandre Desplat created the score for Moonrise Kingdom. The classical sounds of Desplat’s score pair perfectly with the kooky characters and their whimsical narrative. Desplat’s music for the film is totally original, but it was heavily inspired by the work of English composer Benjamin Britten, and...
Anderson is often accused of favoring style over substance, but critics identified a number of poignant themes in Moonrise Kingdomthat are still relevant today. The main theme, of course, is young love. But the movie also deals with juvenile mental health. Sam and Suzy both suffer from mental health problems. They’re both filled with rage and anxie...
Anderson penned the script for Moonrise Kingdom with Darjeeling Limitedco-writer Roman Coppola.

Gilman and Hayward are the undeniable stars of Moonrise Kingdom, but they’re surrounded by beloved A-listers giving quirky, dryly hilarious, scene-stealing supporting turns. The ensemble of Moonrise Kingdomis rounded out by wonderfully deadpan performances by Bruce Willis as Captain Sharp, Edward Norton as Scout Master Randy Ward, Bill Murray and F...
At 94 minutes, Moonrise Kingdomhas a refreshingly lean runtime. Bloated three-hour movies hold up to fewer rewatches, because the unnecessary scenes and subplots start to stand out. Films in the 90-minute range tend to warrant more revisits. Not a second is wasted in Moonrise Kingdom. The character arcs are always moving forward, the stakes are alw...
Visual humor is timeless. Audiences still enjoy silent comedies from 100 years ago because the humor of human physicality has carried across every subsequent generation. The sight gags in Moonrise Kingdom – from Bill Murray ripping a tent out of the groundto Sam taking a scout troop on a wild goose chase around a field – are still just as hilarious...
A lot of Wes Anderson movies end in tragedy, which hurts their rewatchability because viewers don’t want to be depressed when the closing credits roll. Moonrise Kingdomteases a tragic ending, with a lightning bolt destroying a belltower containing three major characters, but Captain Sharp manages to save Sam and Suzy at the last second. After every...
