Moonstruck

CriticsCritics: 87
AudienceAudience: 7.3

A pragmatic widow accepts a marriage proposal without feeling truly in love. While her fiancé is away, she becomes unexpectedly drawn to his passionate, estranged brother, forcing her to reconsider her choices as romantic complications ripple through her lively Italian-American family.

My take

You’ll enjoy this if you like passionate, eccentric romantic comedies with lively family dynamics, such as While You Were Sleeping or Terms of Endearment; Not for you if you prefer understated romance or straightforward plots.
