I've been perusing the long list of interesting-looking movies scheduled for this year's Tribeca Film Festival, which starts this week. Some of them, like Moon, are already earning buzz, and I'm anxious to find out what festivalgoers think once they've screened.
Starring Sam Rockwell, Moon is the directorial debut of David Bowie's son, Duncan Jones. The movie has already built some momentum from this year's Sundance Film Festival and now there's a trailer for it. And the trailer is creepy.
The movie takes place in the not-so-distant future and follows astronaut Sam Bell (Rockwell) who is completing a three-year stint on the moon where his only company has been a computer (voiced by Kevin Spacey) named GERTY. From the looks of the trailer, all that time alone on the moon starts to seriously affect Sam's emotional state. Most of the reviews so far say that this is a pretty terrific entry to the sci-fi/horror genre that's buoyed by a great performance from Rockwell.

It's rated at like 5.5. on IMDB but I can't figure out why because it's not due out for a while. I really want to see this though, mostly for Kaya.
1I can't wait to see this!
2i'm going to see this at the tribeca film festival next week, so excited!
3I missed seeing this at Sundance. There wasn't a lot of buzz on the movie there, but Sam Rockwell always turns in an amazing performance.
4Holy Cow this looks great! I cannot wait to hunt it down and see it. Reminds me of Danny Boyle's Sunshine or Solaris. Total mind fu-k in space.
5Sunshine was so good except for the end!
6looks great. & i agree that sam always turns in an amazing performance.
7looks good; looks a lot like both Sunshine (which I thought was good) and Solaris (which I haven't seen but heard is great); and I love Sam Rockwell...
