Add a CommentOne of my all-time favourites, this sci-fi thriller reminded me that I'm actually into sci-fi thrillers when they are done right!
great hard core sci-fi with a heart. same rockwell is absolutely terrific and actually very funny in this movie. highest recommendation.
EXCELLENT story that leaves you scratching your head 'til the end trying to figure out if the main character is crazy or not with great attention to detail to make it believable, at least until the end where the story falls apart if you think too hard about it, but the robot companion is nice touch.
An astronaut about to return home is suddenly haunted by a mysterious turn of events, along with a younger version of himself. 'Moon' has an intriguingĀ concept and a minimalistic execution. However, there are some parts that don't make much sense. The film received mostly good reviews from critics and bears many similaritiesĀ with 2001 A Space Odyssey.

A very interesting science-fiction, clever and well constructed, that boasts a solid performance by Sam Rockwell and a noteworthy debut direction by David Bowie's son, Duncan Jones.
Cool sci-fi.
Definitely different. A bit bizarre, but interesting idea.
Well done, sans the completely unnecessary 'PC/Greenie propaganda BS' during the voice over in the first minute of the film.
Interesting film--if you like your entertainment grim and misanthropic.
Clever, low-budget sci-fi psychological drama. Despite the low budget, the effects are pretty good. Worth a look.
Good science fiction film- it's one of the more successful movies to evoke a Philip K. Dickian type plot/ atmosphere. If you're into more intelligent science fiction this film should hold some appeal for you.
