Sam Rockwell is fantastic in an otherwise extremely boring movie

Rating: 3/10 (3 August 2009)

I've always respected Sam Rockwell as an actor. This is why I went to see Moon, a drama/thriller set in space. I've got to admit, Sam Rockwell is fantastic in this, but I was thoroughly bored throughout this whole movie. It was like a really, really boring movie. It kept doing the same thing. We get it already- Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) finds a clone of himself, and immediately freaks out. It also hurts that someone as big as Kevin Spacey voices the robot, Gerty. They could of used anyone's voice for that, and to use someone as famous as Spacey makes it feel like the people making this film tried to hard to create a movie with an all-star cast. It's a one-man show from Rockwell, who delivers a great performance, but there is too much repetition and it is too boring. I was expecting to love it. I personally think Sam Rockwell is a great actor. When you look at other films like Choke, Joshua, and Confessions Of A Dangerous Mind, he is great in all off them, and he makes them great movies. I, now, am very sad to inform Moon doesn't live up to its premise.
