On the review aggregator website Rotten Tomatoes, 22% of 37 critics' reviews are positive, with an average rating of 3.9/10. The website's consensus reads: " Serious Moonlight jumbles a comic tone with tragic circumstances and the result is confused performances from its stars."
The similarities are minimal. The references (perhaps unintentional) are quite amusing but it must be said that 'Serious Moonlight' is no romantic comedy. It's more of a black comedy about a couple going through a stale marriage that is on the brink of breaking point.

The story is one of Louise (Meg Ryan) and Ian (Timothy Hutton), an unhappily married couple who have sort of an odd weekend.

Dec 4, 2009 · “Serious Moonlight” suggests an unholy, watered-down hybrid of “The Ref” and “Funny Games,” played as a chirpy screwball comedy, if you can imagine something so bizarre.
