Moon

I liked Moon which is a scifi film with a very interesting and spooky twist (not ghosts or scary but thought provoking). Sam Bell is two weeks away from completing his 3 year solo assignment on the moon running a mining station. He is very lonely, missing his wife and daughter and annoyed that the live comm link to earth is down so that he can only view videos of his family. He is beginning to exhibit some bizarre behaviour under the stress of his loneliness.

Bell's only "companion" is the station's computer Gerty which is there to care for Bell and monitor his well being. Gerty is a bit concerned. On a trip to check on one of the mining machines, Bell crashes his moon vehicle. Next we see someone who appears to be Bell waking up in the station's sick bay under Gerty's care. But is it Bell or ???

Movie is very good...sort of like a simpler 21st century version of 2001 but with a well intentioned computer system and maybe an inhuman mining company. I certainly enjoyed this one!

See this one!
