Moon Child (English Subtitles)

This movie is it's own world. It is part of "Moon Project", by Gackt. It was released several albums, one novel and this movie around the story and concept which has own timeline long many centuries. Could be inspired or influenced or trying to show some connection with royal families? Story is about what looks like being vampire, being human, maturing and growing up. As you grow, you change. A bit social movie as well. Everyone who wants to get the point and concept behind the movie should watch it at least two or three times. There's plenty of things to think about it, characters, moments, words, find any relation to history, occultism, mysticism and such. Actually, there's a strange and mystic atmosphere all around "Moon Saga". On the 2005 Diabolos tour final performance dancers costumes had a resemblance to aliens. Acting by three musical acts and three main characters Gackt, Hyde and Leehom Wang was medicore, a bit pushed. Because filmography is about acting than this movie is not that great, actually Kanata Hongo who played the role of young Sho done better his job then anyone. There moments of every actor, for some not, but it is as it is. Who obviously like and is interested to Gackts work "Moon Saga", or not, must know that this movie is medicore, while concept a bit difficult to understand at first, or second time, perhaps even further.

Why is it a strange movie? Well, there are vampires, yakuza, matrix-style action, yada, yada... But what makes this film great is GACKT! and HYDE! The musical score, namely orenji no taiyou... And well, there is also Lee Hom. And the story is kind of strange for those who don't live in Gackt's world... But it is definitely interesting and I like the brotherhood portrayed in the story.

I watched this when it first came out and needless to say, I fell in love. This was the biggest stepping stone for me leading to complete submersion in the Jrock world. So forever, this movie is close to my heart. I love it!!! Everyone should see it!
