The first movie I plan on reviewing on here is one I watch a while ago, which unfortunately is no longer on Netflix to watch instantly (which I realize completely deletes the purpose of making a site about movies you can watch instantly). None the less, I think it proves how amazing I though this movie was, so let's get on with it.
Moon is a movie about Astronaut Sam Bell, played by Sam Rockwell, who's employer has posted him on the moon to harvest rocks which are shipped to earth and processed to create fuel. His only friend is the company robot GERTY voiced by Kevin Spacey.
While on the moon, Sam lives a boring life filled with day to day chores doing things such as monitoring harvesting equipment, exercising, cleaning, and so on. While on a routine inspection to fix a problem with some of the harvesting equipment, Sam wrecks and is presumed to be dead. He awakens inside his moon base to find everything a little out of place. Sam starts to begin wondering what his company's real intentions are for him and if he is ever going to make it home to see his family.
The movie really focuses on the thought of being alone in a place where no one can reach you, and the terror that can ensue when your all by yourself, roughly 250,000 miles from home. The movie features remarkable acting and intense plot twists. Sam Rockwell really pushes you into feeling the psychosis his character is falling into, and makes you wonder what is really going on outside of your own little world you live in.
I greatly recommend this movie to anyone who is interested in watching an amazing Thriller/Drama that will keep you guessing and hold your intention until the very end. The movie is rated R for adult situations, language, and if I remember correctly, some brief nudity. I leave you with an official trailer for Moon and hope you watch and enjoy this movie as much as I did.
