Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon, directed by Ana Lily Amirpour, is a 2021 fantasy drama film that introduces us to a young girl named Mona Lisa (Jeon Jong-seo), born with an unusual ability - she can see and communicate with ghosts. Due to her gift, Mona Lisa's parents lock her up in a psychiatric institution, fearing she's mentally ill. One night, with the help of a ghost, Mona Lisa manages to escape her confinement and embarks on a dangerous journey to find her mother.

The journey leads Mona Lisa to New Orleans, where she encounters a group of outcasts, including a jazz musician named Leo (played by Ed Skrein), and the charismatic but mysterious Bonnie (Kate Hudson). Bonnie, a tattoo artist, takes Mona Lisa under her wing and offers her refuge in her art studio, where she can use her gift to bring Bonnie's tattoos to life.

However, everything takes a turn when the Blood Moon rises, and Mona Lisa's gift becomes enhanced, causing her to attract not only ghosts but also supernatural creatures. To make matters worse, Bonnie is hunted by ruthless criminals, and Mona Lisa must use her gift to protect herself and her newfound family.

As the plot unravels, the movie explores themes of self-discovery, friendship, and the supernatural. Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon creates an eerie yet captivating atmosphere with a mixture of dark lighting, haunting imagery, and a mesmerizing soundtrack by Mica Levi.

The movie's standout performance undoubtedly belongs to Jeon Jong-seo, who gives a convincing portrayal of Mona Lisa's innocence, naivety, and curiosity. Her chemistry with Kate Hudson's Bonnie brings a refreshing dynamic to the film, as the two women navigate their differences and learn from each other.

Craig Robinson's character, Charlie, adds an element of humor to the film with his quirky behavior and offbeat personality. However, his sub-plot feels underdeveloped and disconnected from the main narrative, which is a shame since Robinson is a versatile actor who deserves more screen-time.

Overall, Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon is a unique and mesmerizing film that explores the intersection between the supernatural and human nature. Ana Lily Amirpour's direction and the exceptional performances by the cast make this movie worth watching, especially for those who appreciate the fantasy genre.

Mona Lisa and the Blood Moon is a 2022 mystery with a runtime of 1 hour and 46 minutes. It has received mostly positive reviews from critics and viewers, who have given it an IMDb score of 6.2 and a MetaScore of 69.
