Reviews
Critics have mixed opinions about 'The Moonlighter'. While some appreciate the chemistry between Barbara Stanwyck and Fred MacMurray, others find the plot predictable and lacking originality. According to Rotten Tomatoes, the film has received a 55% rating based on 14 reviews. Variety praised Stanwyck's performance, stating 'Stanwyck shines as the bold and audacious Rela.' However, IMDb gives the movie a modest rating of 5.8/10. The Hollywood Reporter mentioned that 'The Moonlighter' struggles to bring anything new to the western genre, feeling like a recycled story with little innovation. Despite the criticisms, fans of classic westerns may still find enjoyment in the action-packed sequences and dynamic leads.
