It shows a respect on the filmвЂ™s part, and certainly makes you feel good about yourself.

The best plot twists allow the viewer to arrive at conclusions themselves. This isnвЂ™t to say that they are predictable, but that these story beats could have been handled more elegantly. The twists in this film arenвЂ™t as shocking as they are underwhelming. Michael C Hall in a still from In the Shadow of the Moon. Or you could continue reading at the risk of learning (minor) spoilers. You could, like me, watch the film cold - no trailers, nothing - and read about it later. Which leaves us both in an odd situation. It was at this point that the film revealed the first of its many twists, and it will be difficult to discuss it further without talking about the plot, but it would be unfair to reveal any more details. The prime suspect is a young black woman the only identifying mark is an injury on her hand. With a shiny new detectiveвЂ™s badge egging him on, Tom conducts a couple of clandestine inquiries and learns that the deaths are connected. Tom Lockhart, played by the always reliable Boyd Holbrook, sees it as an opportunity to get a promotion - his wife is due any day, and they could always use some more money. Interestingly though now that IвЂ™m a mom I wouldnвЂ™t let my pre-teens touch this film even with the highest filters because of the content! A movie that teenagers and Reese Witherspoon fans will adore, the rest of us might find a bit grueling.It begins in 1988, when a handful of people die under mysterious circumstances, and an enterprising police officer finds himself in the middle of the investigation. ItвЂ™s not twilight whiny, no worries there, but the character Dani really digs through some heavy emotional drama: first love, physical abuse, death, family drama, all in 90 minutes! It isnвЂ™t a fast moving movie either, just one that for me brings an onslaught of nostalgia as I used to watch this film at every slumber party I think I ever went to as a pre-teen. I canвЂ™t say that I actually know what the Little Boy BlueвЂ™s movie preferences are but for him to enjoy this film heвЂ™ll have to like the innermost thoughts of the average pre-teen girl. Will even Little Boy Blue enjoy The Man In The Moon? The Man In the Moon is a film that involves oodles of love-centered dialogue, and some death so I may seem prudish in my recommendation but I think this film would be suitable for ages 16+. ClearPlay also does itвЂ™s part in cutting a very disturbing scene involving one of the main characters all cut up from a tractor accident. Lastly there is one scene in particular where a boy is trying to force himself on DaniвЂ™s older sister. Since this is a coming of age movie, IвЂ™ll begin with the birds and the beeвЂ™s area! There are two scenes where youвЂ™ll see DaniвЂ™s older sister in her bra and underwear, some skinny-dipping scenes and a sex scene, both of which are shot from a far off distance so you canвЂ™t make out body parts, but still you know what is happening. ItвЂ™s only when tragedy strikes, that sheвЂ™ll learn what it truly means to have loved and lost. Then old family friends move into the farm next door including 17 year old Court, ((Jason London) and Dani finds her world and heart flipped up-side-down. She spends her lazy summer days swimming and helping out on her familyвЂ™s farm. 14 year-old Dani (Reese Witherspoon) is not a girl, and not yet a woman.
