Sam Rockwell great

Rating: 7/10 (19 September 2014)

Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) is near the end of a 3 year contract to mine He-3 on the far side of the moon for Lunar Industries. He is the only person on the base with no direct link to Earth. His only companion is the computer GERTY. He gets recorded messages from his wife Tess (Dominique McElligott). He fears that he's hallucinating. Then he crashes one of the harvester. When he wakes up, GERTY is keeping him from leaving. He finally goes to the crashed harvester and finds another him. The first Sam Bell wakes up frustrated at finding out that he's a clone.
The movie has a bit of eerie mystery at the beginning, but the movie isn't necessarily trying to hide anything. Everything from the clones to the end is obvious. The good part of this movie is the performance of Sam Rockwell. He's great as always. In this, he's playing two distinct characters. However without a big mystery, the drive for the movie is diminished. It's just a matter of watching Rockwell acting against himself.
