I don't know if your like me, but it has been a while since I saw a trailer that really got me geeked up about a movie. Well, today was a slow news day, so I started poking my nose around the Internet, trying to sniff out a story or two to post before the weekend.
As a matter of luck, I stumbled across the trailer for a new sci fi movie called "Moon" and it really grabbed my attention. The film looks a lot like the old sci fi films from the late 60s and early 70s that I grew up with. It has the feeling of a "2001" and "Silent Running" type of film, in fact that's all I could think about, while I was watching the trailer.
To kinda map out the story, from what I saw in the trailer, the film centers on an astronaut named Sam, played by Sam Rockwell (Carlie's Angels, Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy) who is the sole caretaker of a large mining operation on the Moon. Everything is going fine, until about a couple of weeks before he is set to return to Earth, strange things begin to happen. For starters, the astronaut finds an exact double of himself in a crashed pod. From that point on, good old Sam starts to come unraveled, wondering if he is part of some strange plot, or if he is going out of his mind from being isolated for such a long period of time.
It looks like a great sci fi film that will cause you to have to use your mind a lot, and how long has it been since we were treated to a film like that?
"Moon" is scheduled for a limited release June 12th, and I for one am going to seek this one out.
