I had it all figured out even before the movie started, but I realized the big twist that I had envisioned actually occurs 30 minutes into the movie. So while I saw that coming, the great part of the movie is that it in now way hinges on that twist. There was still an hour left.

I thought it was pretty emotional, and Rockwell was pretty amazing.

I'm a big fan.<!--QuoteEnd--><!--QuoteEEnd-->
It's funny, I was just thinking about this movie again tonight. I actually wanted to watch it again just to see what I may have missed the first time. The more I think about, the more it's grown on me for sure.

I think I've been very consistent in my opinion about this film.

And Mikey, I will destroy you.

Watched this on Friday. I love cerebral Sci-Fi movies like this -- and Rockwell is one of my favorite actors. He was outstanding. Lots of really good ideas in this one -- and very well executed. I kept excepting the Kevin Spacey computer to turn sinister like HAL from 2001 -- it was clearly an homage. But I'm glad it didn't take that obvious turn. It was also surprisingly emotional and sad -- which I loved.


***SPOILER BELOW***

When the decaying Sam gets a live feed and is able to call his home and his teenage daughter answers...man. That was heartbreaking.

4.5/5 stars

Just watched this...man was it good. 4.5/5 stars.

I guessed what was going on pretty early, and it was interesting to see how it would play out. I guess he's making 2 more movies after this within the same "universe" that Moon was in.

Watched this last night. I think this has to be one of the most depressing movies ever. Rockwell really made me care about his character like few actors have. I enjoyed it quite a bit.
