Moon Review : Magnulus Movie Minute 02

Moon is the exact polar opposite of Transformers: Super-low budget, ultra-high quality, top-tier acting, intelligent story and not a single explosion.

There are so many things to say about this film, but since I've decided to torture myself with a one-minute (kind of) format, and since I didn't write down any NOTES about what I wanted to include, I couldn't really fit much into it. Also, there's only so much I can discuss it without going into specifics about the plot. I have yet to meet anyone who didn't like Moon, and in Edinburgh, it has grown immensely popular despite being a small film with a non-existent marketing budget compared to films like Transformers.

Directed by Duncan Jones
Written by Jones & Nathan Parker
Starring: Sam Rockwell

Couldn't stand Rockwell until Choke. He is an amazing actor. Can't wait to see it

I guess where I first noticed Rockwell was in Green Mile, though at that point, I was too busy wooping over the fact that the weaselly new guard was Tooms from X-Files (and amazing, too) to mark his name down. Then, I think I saw him in Confessions of a Dangerous Mind, which is where I REALLY opened my eyes to him. He has a lot to offer, I think. Crash was amazing, too. Only saw that a few days ago. A lot more to it than I thought there would be.

Let me know what you think of Moon!

Cool review! Certainly makes me want to check it out. Now if only I could find the time to watch this Netflix movie that's been sitting around here for the last month, LOL.

[Magnulus]

Hahah, that can happen. I hope I'll be better at watching things when I get Lovefilm (UK Netflix, basically) in september. I can never get myself to go to the cinema these days.

It is indeed mindbending.

Loving your enthusiasm haha. Have to watch out for this, sounds cool :)

[Magnulus]

^_^ You definitely should. It's being rolled out in cinemas slowly but surely, so if you see it in your local cinema's lists, hop to it!

[LanaB2]
