Audience Member Love it! Funny. Quirky. Solid characters. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/06/23 Full Review Audience Member a Very Canadian movie...but you can't help but watch it and laugh at the nonsense of it! Rated 3 out of 5 stars 01/20/23 Full Review Audience Member cute fam-friendly flick about a boy's childhood and his wild imagination. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 02/19/23 Full Review Audience Member "Once In A Blue Moon" is the epitome of childhood imagination and adventure! Yet the themes of growing up and discovering ones' self in a time of change for Canada, within a unique and sometimes strained family dynamic, are folded in amoungst the storyline to create a touching and thoughtful film beyond the simple fun of this imaginative story. Wonderfully shot with warm colors and creative camera work and editing; and fantastically cast with beautiful individuals who make each of the characters so special! Great. Rated 5 out of 5 stars 02/10/23 Full Review Audience Member A talented cast, with Cody Serpa, Deanna Milligan, and Cheryl Wilson's being the high points. The pop culture references and music also weave well into the Canadian material. Rated 1 out of 5 stars 02/20/23 Full Review Read all reviews
