On the dark side of the Moon, man has found the answer to all his energy needs – mining an essential element to generate clean, sustainable power for earth. Such an easy solution – until the one man stationed there on a three year contract, is suddenly face-to-face with a younger, more angry version of himself.
Moon is the directorial debut for Duncan Jones – the son of David Bowie, and this movie is great testament to the fact that science fiction can be made on a low budget – but with high style. Visually the film is quite similar to 2001:A Space Odyssey – with GERTY (played by a disembodied Kevin Spacey) playing the part of the protective robot minder.
I really enjoyed this – the story is very clever and the part of Sam Bell (almost single handed through the film) is played admirably by Sam Rockwell. It won’t be headlining your local Odeon – but it is worth seeking out and enjoying.
