It's always a pleasure to see Mark Strong in a lead role -- too often he's wasted as baddies and bosses. In Closer to the Moon he gets his most interesting part in a while. November 12, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

There are a lot of moving moments in this film, and it's to writer-director Nae Caranfil's credit that he's able to tease out the logic in this mostly enjoyable, if a little all-over-the-place, dark comedy. April 17, 2015 | Rating: 3/5 | Full Review…

"Closer to the Moon" draws on many of the same facts that appear in "The Great Communist Bank Robbery," but in the service of a less adventurous movie with familiar Western actors, English-language dialogue and badly strained uplift. April 16, 2015 | Full Review…

From Romania, of all places, comes a breath of fresh air, far above the usual action film Hollywood keeps churning out with pointless abandon. April 15, 2015 | Rating: 3/4 | Full Review…

All the major facts of Moon are historically accurate, but the reasons behind the events remain a bit murky. However, Caranfil's speculations are more than persuasive. May 20, 2016 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

The story is so quintessentially Romanian, it had better been made in Romanian, with Romanian actors. November 12, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Caranfil's unlikely, odd little film is quietly moving - all the more so because it is true. November 12, 2015 | Rating: 4/5 | Full Review…

It has some moments that effectively convey the weirdness with which it deals; but for the most part it's a missed opportunity, marred by a lack of narrative conviction and tonal cohesion. November 9, 2015 | Rating: 2/5 | Full Review…

Although based on a true story, 'Closer to the Moon' comes across on screen as artificial and befuddling. However, quality production values make it easy on the eyes. April 19, 2015 | Full Review…
