Pełna erotycznego napięcia opowieść o narodzinach kobiecej zmysłowości i strachu przed namiętną siłą, która kusi, zniewala i podstępnie pozbawia życia młode mieszkanki internatu. Zafascynowana gotyckimi powieściami Rebecca zauważa, że skrycie adorowana przez nią przyjaciółka Lucy darzy coraz gorętszym uczuciem świeżo przybyłą, tajemniczą koleżankę Ernessę. Zazdrosna Rebecca zaczyna obserwować nową uczennicę. Tymczasem pracownicy i mieszkanki internatu zaczynają ginąć w tajemniczych okolicznościach. (Kino Świat)

Empty crap that relies on the gothic vampire mythology (the film says that every vampire story has three attributes: sex, blood and death, but here the sex is only insinuated, the blood is everywhere in only one dream sequence and there aren’t too many deaths, either) and that wants to be self-aware psychological horror (describing the relationship between two friends who become estranged due to a supernatural creature that controls one of them), but that in the end only causes the indifference of the viewer, at best, and laughter, at worst. Moth Diaries doesn’t work on any level, the dialogues are toe curling, the actors are wooden and there’s no atmosphere. I expected something slightly above-par, what I got was conceited crap that I will try to forget soon (which, I believe, won’t be much trouble). PS: The only interesting thing in the film is the look of the main “moth”, it’s really nasty. ()
At first, it seems like it could be a horror set in an intriguing environment, with emphasis on atmosphere, but in the end, it turns out to be just a pseudo-young adult romance, which also didn't quite work out. The characters are seemingly interesting at first glance but are otherwise boring and flat, just like the story, which quickly becomes tedious. ()
