Moon

And no, I'm not talking about New Moon (there's already a thread for that). I'm talking about the Duncan Jones film starring Sam Rockwell and Kevin Spacey. I just saw it today, and I thought it was fantastic. Normally I don't get a chance to see too many independent films, but I heard some good things about this one and decided to give it a shot. Easily one of my favorite films of the year so far.

I've never heard of this movie...

What's it about?

Auron · 08-15-2009, 11:14 PM

To sum it up without giving anything away, it's about a man who is working on a station on the moon to harvest helium-3. He has been there for 3 years and is two weeks from going home when he starts to break down mentally and physically. There's more to than that, but I'd rather not give anything away to anyone who hasn't seen it yet, unless you want me to put it all in spoiler tags.

Hm, sounds like a movie I'd be interested in.
I'll have to look into it.

Sounds like Christmas on Mars, but on the moon instead of Mars.

And remember, "I'm-a Luigi, number one!"

^I can assure you it's not like that at all.
