Moonlight Sonata

Moonlight Sonata is a brilliantly intriguing film that will captivate and grip you through its entirety. The writing, directing, casting, cinematography, sound, and acting are superb. It is extremely evident that a lot of thought, detail, and hard work were put into the making of this film, yet it appears effortless and seamless. I found myself connecting with and feeling for the characters and their predicaments, particularly Vicky, who is so much more than what she seems. The film has visually breathtaking moments that boast its overall distinctive expression throughout. While the movie sends you on a dark and twisty ride, it leaves you feeling a glimmer of hope and satisfaction. Moonlight Sonata is a high quality film that certainly deserves the recognition it has received (and then some). A suspenseful, mysterious, sexy, psychological, thriller that is a must see!

I have seen this movie in a film festival and I strongly believe that it deserves to be seen by the public. The unexpected twists in the plot that challenge you are enough to make this thriller a classic. What turns it into a lovely gem is the refined sense of humor of the director/screenwriter/editor (same person) that crops up occasionally. Discovering the subtle pieces of irony and black humor along the movie is a pleasure. The low profile music enhances the movie. This film shows that genius is enough to produce a low budget film that beats the zillion dollar Hollywood films embarrassingly. Hollywood may learn a few things from this unknown director.

You're at the edge of your seat watching a thriller. Once the film is over you realize it's also a philosophical statement that you want to discuss with friends and neighbours. Moonlight Sonata is a film to watch, once seen also to talk about Not an account of what happened,but what the director said. In spite of the fact that the actors one by one go deep into our soul, they all come across as characters that we might come across in every day life. Looking very much forward to Kayalar's next film. He seems to have the extraordinary knack of making the unusual seem very much a part of the behaviour of the man on the street,your ordinary individual. I thought the camera work was especially brilliantly done. Just the right amount of focus and background- not overly emphasizing the individual but placing the actor in context

I recently had the opportunity to see "Moonlight Sonata" and have to say that this film did everything to satisfy my artistic expectations of an indie film while at the same time taking me on a psychological thrill ride. But as a thriller, this film is so much more interesting, more satisfying and more authentic than its Hollywood equivalent. In this story, there are no clear goodies and baddies. Instead, the characters' moral struggles seem to mirror the ambiguities and ironies of our own moral codes. Individual scenes were filmed in a way that was so beautiful and surreal that they seemed to be painted right out of the characters' own imagination. There were moments during the film when the filmmaker seemed to be paying homage to his own favorite filmmakers, like Hitchcock and Lynch, suggesting a genealogy of filmmakers. Like all of my favorite films, I found myself thinking about the film long after it ended. Now I am trying to find out where I can see it again.

Bravo, This movie is a proof of: You do not need a big budget to make a big movie. Such a well thought story, so many fine details with a lot of room for audience intelligence. A very good mixture of screenplay, music and camera. It will keep you thinking long after the movie and might add another view of looking to people you think you know. We have seen the movie in a film festival a month ago and we still find our self with my wife discussing about it. This movie came like a feast of intelligence where it gave me room and freedom to take it further, which I missed a lot lately.

Must see...
