PLEASE SEE THIS |
|
THE MOST UNDERRATED MOVIE OF THE YEAR!! THAT'S RIGHT ALL CAPS! This was great, I'm not a huge fan of 2001, which it has to be compared to, but I loved this. Sam Rockwell should've been nominated for an acting Oscar and the film should be nominated for Best Picture. If you want to see a film about a big corporation mining a real live thing (the moon) not some made up place, for resources and what happens to its lone inhabitant then I beg you all to see this beautiful piece of work. |

Marvelous Moon Madness |
|
"Moon" is essentially "Cast Away" in space and a rather impressive film to boot. "Moon" exceeds as a drama, mystery and a sci-fi film. With a 15 million dollar budget, "Moon" shows you get a lot of a little. ( Michael Bay...please take note). This indie sci-fi movie takes cues from classic sci-fi movies of the 80's such as "2001: A Space Oydessy" and "Slient Running", yet is able create something incredibly unique and original. The directing from Duncan Jones is one of the most strongest debuts from a director in a long time. He could honestly be the next great sci-fi director. In my opinion, Sam Rockwell is the most underrated actor working today, with such memorable turns in "Snow Angels", "Choke", "The Green Mile", and "Galaxy Quest". He does a remarkable job in a award cailber perfor... |

Solid as The Moon |
|
An interesting movie. It is good and I am really glad more and more movies are coming out like this. In fact, the best movie of 2009 so far. First we had "The Fountain" and then we had the amazing "Sunshine." Though this is not as good as either of these it is still a step up from the crappy space sci fi we usually are served with.
Moon is funny, interesting, and enjoyable. It is amazing what they did with the budget that they had. Sam Rockwell took a chance and I think it pays off well. Though I am not a fan of him, he does show that he is a good actor...and very funny.
The musical score is performed by Clint Mansel (sp) who does a great job (though one of his worst scores) at bringing life to a desolate area. Along with the acting and cinematography, this was one of the stro... |

Moon |
|
Moon is a story about a man, Sam Bell, who works on a moon base in absolute solitude; he only has a robot for company (voice by Kevin Spacey). Sam has been working there totally alone for almost three years and two weeks before his contract is ending and he is about leave back home to earth, weird things start happening. The movie itself looked amazing and unique, although it was made with a small budget. Sam Rockwell played the lead and he did a great job. He has done a lot of movies in his career, but it was very nice to see him in a leading role and he just nailed it. |

The trailer def hooked me. Gold Star to Alex for remembering silent running. Lump of coal for the "much better" comment. Silent Running is a true classic. |

Sam Rockwell is such a talented actor.Check out his wonderful proformance in "Snow Angels" if you dont believe me, I really hope this is the movie he shows people what he's made of. This role screams oscar but we all know this proformance doesnt have a shot of a nomination. |
