Rating: 8/10 (10 August 2009)

Synopsis: mining station on the dark side of the moon. Lone astronaut/operative nearing end of 3 year contract overseeing the exploitation of the moon's surface for clean energy for Earth.
What a great surprise! I came to see this film because of Sam Rockwell, but feared another Polaris. How unfounded these fears were. Intelligent script, superb lead protagonist, and kudos to Kevin Spacey's 'Gerty'. Forget all the fancy CGI, monsters, explosions etc that you usually find with Sci-Fi. It Felt authentic, and that made it more personal.
Go to see this if you want to immerse yourself in a film. Not a switch your brain off movie in the slightest. It made me think, and feel. Great.
