The title refers to one relative's theory that the full moon can make people wildly romantic, make them behave in wonderful, unpredictably crazy ways. Not crazy enough.

Top Criticspends so much time reminding us what a quaint and cute little movie we're watching that our interest isn't required

Stronger on mores than amore, a half smile for a summer night.

John Patrick Shanley's witty, shapely script puts an octet of New Yorkers under a lunar-tuney spell one romantic night. Cher shines brightest of all.

Simply stated, it is difficult not to be swept up by this charming picture.

The Haley's Comet of Romantic Comedies - sparkling gems like this don't come along very often. One large supreme with extra spice.

...perfectly beautiful, thoughtful, poignant, funny, and fun. Like the full moon, it is enchanting to look at time and again.

Most of the show belongs to Cher and Cage, both of whom are at their energetic best.

Top CriticOkay romantic comedy, but I never got what the fuss was about.

This Oscar-winning comedy could be described as an Italian Woody Allen film, only less neurotic and more warm-hearted.
