Strange plot, interesting characters... 5

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.

The beginning... 5

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!

Moon Child 5

Moon Child is a vampire/gangster movie. HYDE and GACKT are the main actors in the film. If you are into action, gangsters, and vampires, then Moon Child is the perfect movie.

What can you say... 5

Well, what can be said about Moon Child that hasn't already been said. Fantastic movie, in that cult kind of way. Gackt & Hyde both perform well, particularly in the more dramatic moments of the movie. It's impossible not to be moved by some of their performances, particularly in the second half of the movie. The direction is perhaps the only weak point, but that can be forgiven. Moon Child really is a great movie, and I'm glad I finally own my own copy instead of borrowing others ^_^

Wow! 5

Ready your credit cards, everyone! This is Gackt and HYDE's first movie debut, and they're doing it together, on one screen! Why not? This movie is a true gem, and any fan of either (or both, like myself) of these amazing musicians should buy it as soon as they can. Their acting is also surprisingly good, so don't worry about stale acting or less-than-enthusiastic lines.

MOON CHILD 5

This movie, in short, is EXCELLENT. Not just because of the main actors being Gackt and Hyde (L'Arc~en~Ciel) are in it, but it has a beautifuly story to it as well. It may seem cliched to some. But for me, I haven't seen many movies like this, so I enjoyed it. During the movie, they speak Japanese AND Mandarin, which is good for learning purposes as well. :)

They can act too! What can't they do? 5

Gackt and HYDE are musical geniuses, but this movie showed that they are great actors as well! This movie was very enjoyable and had lots of drama as well as some comedy. It was also translated very well! I really cannot say enough about this DVD! Buy it! Trust me, you won't be sorry!

I love this movie 5

Amazing movie, of course! In my opinion, the subtitles seemed a bit "jumpy," but it was translated very well.

Love it! 5

The story of love and friendship on the harsh streets of Mallepa in 2014 is not an ordinary vampire movie where the theme is usually the lust for the flesh. Yet, it's neither an action gun firing movie where the hero defeats the vilain. I think Moon Child is a very unique movie in many ways. Both Gackt and Hyde are fantastic muscians; however, some of their behavior and appearances (especially Gackt's) can be a little confusing to those not aware of their personalities. It's not neccessary to be a fan of theirs to enjoy this excellent movie, but it certainly can help. On the other hand, every single Gackt and Hyde fan would love to have this DVD!

HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 5

the plot wasn't as good as it could've been, but overall, it was very well-done, and even if you don't like the story line, who can say no to two hours of oogling two of the hottest men ever to set foot in japan in tight leather pants XP

With this purchase you cannot lose. Gackt, HYDE, great acting, perfect English subtitles, and basically a STEAL at this price. Great movie, highly recommended.
