Moon Rock for Monday

The two main actors are amazing. The music really adds to the film, very unique. The ending is gut wrenching. Wish there was more films out there like this.

Such an enjoyable Australian film. I fell in love with the main characters and enjoyed watching their relationship build.

Such a sweet movie. Full of laughs and tears. Great to see some new talent. The lead characters, George and Ashlyn definitely share something special that resonates on screen. I definitely want to see more of these guys!

Finally a refreshing Australian feel good film. I saw it at the Adelaide film festival and was gripped by it. The storyline is refreshingly feel good and teaches the audience the importance of life and how we need each other in this world. Would recommend that everyone see this film.

The movie was very well done, telling a story about two tragic figures in life. One tragic tale by choice and one by nature. Oddly enough the story-line that ultimately led to the young kidnappers / friends final outcome of the film felt not well thought out and forced. And, the dialogue reflected that. Pace of the movie goes along nicely then during the Police scenes something seems off on each one of them. Acting between the young and old friend are the hit of this film. Somewhere between a 6-7 on this film for me.

A friend invited me to a special screening of the film so I had no expectations. Look, the film is obviously not perfect and clearly low budget.... but the story is very beautiful and I was thoroughly engaged for the entire film. Also the two actors who play the leads are phenomenal. So for an Indie film it punches well above it's weight and it left me with a provocative thought - what is life really about. Not without flaws but I highly recommend people see this film as it has a very powerful theme that resonates.

This was an absolute pleasure. It was a story that truly took you on a journey and hit all the right spots. Some of the messages and moments in this film are what we all need right now. Aussie filmmaking at its finest.

Great little film, a blend of 'The tree of life' and 'little miss sunshine.' A story about how we fit within our world and the legacy we leave. Moonrock is about what it means to have quality of life, we're here for such a short period and it's only until most of us become elderly that the thoughts about mortality and time really come into play. Tyler and Monday are wicks that burn bright but way too quickly. Monday struggles with the tight rein her father has on her for fear of losing her after the death of his wife. Tyler lives in the shadow of his mothers death and his longing to reconnect and make sense of his loss. Tyler has had to provide for himself and answer to no one. Monday lives in a cotton ball that slowly suffocates her. As a father, how do you respond to the thought that you could lose your child to an illness or accident? What does it mean to be alive and to live life, Monday is in her fathers prison, Tyler is headed for prison. Both will search for answers to their future, need each other not to survive but to live and learn.

Best aussie film I've seen in the longest film! The on screen chemistry between George and Ashlyn is very special. Unpredictable, heart warming, and a showcase of our beautiful homeland! This is a film that really takes you on an adventure! I laughed and cried and all the feels between. A must see film! Kimberley

Kurt Martin (Writer & Director) you are brilliant! The movie is amazing and the story is so well told. Beautiful cinematography and some great locations. Lots of laughs and lots of tears. Ashlyn and George are an amazing duo with so much natural talent - no doubt both have bright futures ahead. A fantastic Australian film!
