This movie is the proof that the world is becoming a sick and dumb place

Just so...so bad

Excellent, Without a doubt!!

It's an amazing and heartbreaking story.

I loved that movie and I really mean it. I saw it several times - really worthy. Very kind, hopeful, funny one. It's like manual: how to act in the modern world to reach your dream-relationship. Real woman, real little problems: whether to answer the phone or pretend to be independent. Nothing that we didn't know but the story is very well done with details, humor and that feeling "i've been through it already". When one knows that everything could be another way if he only listened carefully... Acting are wonderful and I especially liked the operator jobI rated it 8 out of ten because of my "life experience", it didn't work for me. It's still the contemporary fairy tale - and if one follows "free rules" one would fail. But probably that's why we love cinema )))And I'm still waiting for the us release - to watch it in English

Well, after having seen the Metropolis and Cabinet of Doctor Caligari, I thought the Germans cannot surprise me further with great films (and those movies are ooold). Der Mondscheintarif is much newer, has nothing to do with crazy doctors, like Caligari. There is a doctor, but young and handsome, and there is Cora, fittingly surnamed Huebsch (meaning "pretty" in German). She is looking for love, she finds it and then normal rules of dating come into play. This movie is remarkable for its plot. Finally, a movie about relationships from a true woman's point of view. This woman likes single life, likes sex, fun, friends, and in light of a new relationship is dumb-founded. And this truthfulness (wonderful feature of only German films today) adds spice, flavor, chic, whatever you call it that makes a good movie great. Watch it. This IS Oscar material, but trust me, it'll never get one.

The filming is remarkably well-done. The actors are good and the story is interesting, but the camera work deserves special mention. Normally, I would say it is bad when one notices the camera work, because it must be distracting. And on the surface there are some very distracting techniques: flashes, out-of-focus areas, jitters. But I don't think that the cinematography is detrimental here. Instead it adds visual interest without interfering with the storytelling. Indeed, it even contributes to the story.

You want to know how up-to-date people live, the clothes they wear, how there flats look like? Watch "Mondscheintarif" and you will also learn how these people are caught in the rituals of their modern life, their "must"s and "mustn't"s."You must never call a man after your first night together! He has to call you!" - Young photographer Cora obeys and almost goes mad waiting. These people, so trendy, so much on top of society, cannot deal with such things as just talking to each other honestly. I find it really sad to think that there might be people who really live all these lies. So watch this movie and learn something about "How-not-to"...
