I like movies with a good character-centered plot and this certainly qualifies. So many Hollywood movies have a distinctly evil antagonist and a pure protagonist. There is no "bad guy" in this movie. All of the people have a side that I could relate to, but they make mistakes along the way.In all a very good film

This movie is about a woman who has second thoughts about her married life when she meets a handsome t-shirt salesman. A Walk on the Moon is a great movie which touches a lot of morality subjects that are super relevant to our society today.Today there are too many adult people acting like teenagers and letting themselves get sucked in to the vortex of the irresponsible and untied life. A part of maturing is realizing that you can't do whatever you want whenever you feel like it, you have to consider the people around you when you're making important decisions and you must not be reckless.I think this movie teaches some great lessons about immaturity and loyalty. It teaches about responsibilities and what happens if you abuse the responsibility you have. I love Liev Schreiber and Viggo Mortensen, and they're really bringing the best to this movie.
'Sentiment: Positive 🙂'
A film combining moving story, authentic accents, characters, and plot, along with a true feeling for the people involved and their situation. As a Jewish housewife on vacation with her family in the Catskills in 1969, Diane Lane gives the best performance of her career. Ditto, her husband Liev Schrieber. These excellent performances are complemented by an outstanding ensemble cast consisting of the mother-in-law, the two children and Pearl's lover,What could have been a syrupy, predictable situation involving the stereotyped bored housewife is beautifully rendered with Neil Armstrong's walk on the moon in 1969 as a backdrop for Pearl's(Lane)emotional and spiritual crisis. Highly recommended.
