Moon - 10 stars out of 10
"Moon" is a hidden gem within the science fiction genre. Sam Rockwell puts forth the greatest performance(s) of his career in this mindbending film. Moon starts out as a typical sci-fi movie but after the first major twist 30 minutes in, your attention will not waver for a second. This movie takes a concept that is typically received with skepticism but presents it in a way that makes it completely believable. I won't reveal what this concept is, but I will say that the only thing missing from this movie is the explanation of "how?" I feel that GERTY had to be a tribute to "2001: A Space Odyssey" and Kevin Spacey was the perfect choice for the voice. He really brought life to that computer. Overall, this is an incredible one-man show as Rockwell lights up the screen with drama and intrigue.
