Moon (2009)

[Tom]

Has anyone watched this? Its a film which I saw the trailer for some time ago, but completely forgot about. It seems to have slipped under the radar, which is a shame because its actually quite a good study of solitude.

If you fancy something which makes you think, and which will surprise you, I heartily recommend it.

I have it on blu-ray sitting on the couch, I know what you mean about it being under the radar, never really heard much about it. My sister got it for Christmas and gave it to me to watch over the new year, so I will get it watched this weekend .

Good film, good acting; I fear that general scorings may however be quite low for it (hence being under the radar) because it's quite a slow mood piece... not exactly a mass audience type of film.

Definitely recommended.

 

[Jeros]

I bet at the end it was all in his head

 

[old.Tohtori]

It was ok, had a few moments which i didn't like, but it's an opinion.

Worth a watch.

 

[ECA]

It seemed very Gattacaesque to me.

Good film though, worth a watch.

Didn't like the ending that much though

 

[Ch3tan]

Really great movie, it was mentioned a few times in the top movies of 2009 thread.

I agree with ECA that the ending wasn't the best. But sometimes happy is good.

 

[caLLous]

I thought it was great too, captivating from start to finish. Loved the music too.

First thing I did after watching it was get the soundtrack. Its very emotive.

 

[fettoken]

Movie has a nice mood and a slow but steady pace which gives you time to get into it. Very much liked it!

 

[milou]

The sound track is worth a listen/borrow/purchase too.

 

[Roo Stercogburn]

This is one of my favourite films of 2009. Its got some very subtle touches in it.

I agree regarding the soundtrack. One of the things I loved about it is that its very serene and melodic with just an occasional bit off-key... a hint that perfectly reflects the rest of the film.

 

[Damini]

One of my favourite films of 2009. It's one of those rare films that perfectly carries a mood - it soaks through everything, the music, the colours, the acting, the dialogue.

 

[Vasconcelos]

Gerty = HAL 9000 good machine version

I enjoyed the movie but wont be in my fav ever list.

 

[Scouse]

Best film of last year tbfh. The only thing I enjoyed as much was Gran Torino.

 

[Fast]

Watched this last year, was something different. Good film

 

[Edmond]

Had it for months and finally watched it last night, thought it was amazing. Sam Rockwell played the parts(s) very well

Spoiler

I'm assuming we are lead to believe that the clones only have a life span of 3 years, therefore will the Sam that went back to earth die, and also why didnt they kill him as soon as he got home. We hear soundbites at the end of him exposing stuff, wht didnt they just shut him up?

 

[Chilly]

great film, loved it all the way. The fact that one man can effectively carry the whole film speaks volumes to his acting ability.
