Moonstruck

Yes... that Moonstruck... with Cher and Nick Cage. As an Oscar nominated best picture film, this was amazing... in that it was comically over the top. I know that Nick Cage has a type, but go back and watch this and you see a caricature of himself. The story is of Cher getting engaged and then falling in love with the brother of her fiancé. It is stereotype Italian family, stereotype Brooklyn, stereotype 90's rom-com. And because of that, it is quite fun. It would never even get a viewing today, much less a nomination, but as flashback fodder, I loved it.
4 stars (out of 5)
