Moon

Love it. Best Sci-fi movie ever!!.

This movie was recommended through Trakt. No high expectations, but a very good flick! Highly recommended!

Love it!
Superb acting performance mixed with a brillant plot, nice pictures and an amazing soundtrack, result in a great science-fiction movie, absolutely worth watching.
It's quite brainy, so nothing for the brain-dead out there.

@dunpealhunter totally agree.

Watching this again for the 4th time - I had forgotten how truly devastating this Clint Mansell soundtrack is - it really does so much to intensify how you feel in the moment. There are some truly emotional scenes in this movie that are magnified x10 just due to the soundtrack. I'm glad I watched this again, also because - not that I would forget - it was such a treat seeing Sam Rockwell give such a performance when only playing with himself (for lack of a better term). This is sci-fi slow-burn drama & it's got that political edge. I never even knew who the director was before, either. Very interesting. 🤘

This is an outstanding prodution, well parced, composition and plot just perfect. This is a top movie, despite in a simple script/scenario. Put in discussion the clonation, future and the moral behind it. Just 5 stars 10 from 10/10

A great movie on a limited budget. One of my favorite sci-fi movies.

Science fiction is a unique genre; it examines themes through predictive extrapolation. I like to think of it as being more intellectually engaging that way, prompting for serious evaluation of the issues presented. Moon, directed by Duncan Jones, is a harder type of science fiction than the mainstream audience is used to. The entire story is told on the surface of the moon, where a new natural resource is being harvested for energy back home on Earth. We follow the station's only human employee, Sam Bell, played by Sam Rockwell, as he wraps up his painfully lonely three year contract. Before he gets to return to his family on Earth however, he notices things that aren't supposed to be noticed.

The movie was exceptionally well written, the plot panned out just right, and conversations were natural and realistic. The visuals were down to earth (on the moon), and felt futuristic without being exaggerative. The music, written by Clint Mansell was a definite beauty, setting a poignant audio landscape for the film.

While presenting itself firmly as a psychological sci-fi tale, Moon touches upon environmental, corporate, and technological themes, all in remarkably cohesive manner. Here's hoping to see more films like Moon in the future.

9.3 helium-3 canisters out of 10.

Has undoubtably become one of my all-time favourites.

Agreed. Very much enjoyed this movie when I saw it. Didn't know really what to expect either, just a friend's recommendation (this was before trakt after all!) to give it a shot.
