Opening in theaters June 12th, the film stars Sam Rockwell, Kaya Scodelario, Benedict Wong, Matt Berry, Malcolm Stewart and Dominique McElligott.
The film revolves around Sam Bell, who is nearing the end of his contract with Lunar. He's been a faithful employee for 3 long years. His home has been Selene, a moon base where he has spent his days alone, mining Helium 3. The precious gas holds the key to reversing the Earth's energy crisis.
Isolated, determined and steadfast, Sam has followed the rulebook obediently and his time on the moon has been enlightening, but uneventful. The solitude has given him time to reflect on the mistakes of his past and work on his raging temper. He does his job mechanically, and spends most of his available time dreaming of his imminent return to Earth, to his wife, young daughter and an early retirement.
Moon was released June 12th, 2009 and stars Sam Rockwell, Kevin Spacey, Dominique McElligott, Rosie Shaw, Adrienne Shaw, Kaya Scodelario, Benedict Wong, Matt Berry. The film is directed by Duncan Jones.

at first it looks like Castaway in space, with Wilson played by a computer with an emoticon for a face. then it changes directions. problem is, many independents like this have great story concepts that are poorly executed. probably wait till BluRay. we'll see...

Structure (ONSTRA)
damn. this looks like a very very big winner to me. crazy, twisting and just the type of movies I'll enjoy. finally, a good movie that occurs off the earth's surface that would/could surface in my all time list.

Looks like an oscar movoie, especially in the acting department. Sam Rockwell gets overlooked for pretty much everything hes in. This movie looks confusing but really good at the same time.
