movie review - "Moon"

Over the weekend and after burning ourselves out with moving the last of my stuff and cleaning out my apartment and all, The Boy and I went to see "Moon." And it was pretty darned awesome. Overall, it reminded me most of the collections of 1960's/70's era sci-fi short stories that I've read - something that would have fit in well in an Analog collection. It was tight, suspenseful and tense, it was beautiful without focusing too much on spectacle, and it was very human - the people (well, person in this case - there's really only one main character) were the center of the story.

If you like the real classics in sci-fi, I can't recommend this one highly enough. Beautiful cinematography, too, and some very nice art direction to go with the fabulous acting from the lead.
