Duncan Jones (David Bowie's son) will soon be one to remember after his extraordinary sci-fi thriller Moon (review) hits limited theaters on June 12 from Sony Pictures Classics. Months after we brought you five clips, the first trailer has finally found its way online and can be viewed inside. In the film astronaut Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell) has a quintessentially personal encounter while stranded on the moon for a three-year period.
Sam Bell is nearing the end of his contract with Lunar. He's been a faithful employee for 3 long years. His home has been Selene, a moon base where he has spent his days alone, mining Helium 3. The precious gas holds the key to reversing the Earth's energy crisis. Isolated, determined and steadfast, Sam has followed the rulebook obediently and his time on the moon has been enlightening, but uneventful. The solitude has given him time to reflect on the mistakes of his past and work on his raging temper. He does his job mechanically, and spends most of his available time dreaming of his imminent return to Earth, to his wife, young daughter and an early retirement. But 2 weeks shy of his departure from Selene, Sam starts seeing things, hearing things and feeling strange. And when a routine extraction goes horribly wrong, he discovers that Lunar have their own plans for replacing him... and the new recruit is eerily familiar. Before he can return to Earth, Sam has to confront himself and the discovery that the life he has created, may not be his own. It's more than his contract that is set to expire.

looks good! But it seems a little too close to 2001....
However, I see it as being less abstract and psychadelic, so that at least is a change of tone. :-) |
YAY!! I've wanted to see this since you guys posted the synopsis last year! |
darn i was hopin to see Matt Berry in the trailer, i really wanna see this |
Looks good, also count me in. |
That looks AMAZING!! I've always loved Sam Rockwell's performances but...WOW!! This looks like he's swinging for the Oscars with this one. I really want to see this one. |
So what, is this a clone film? Seems that way from the clip and brief synopsis. |
Looks great. Anyone see Joshua? |
Phenomenal. Sam Rockwell is a brilliant actor. |
Really high hopes for this one... Really hope Rockwell finally gets the praise and recognition he has deserved for so damn long. |
Looks like he took a hint or two from Solaris and 2001. That being said, I can't wait to see this. |
Finally, Sam Rockwell has been on a slow simmer heating up... he's now bringing it to the boil! hopefully this wont be too close to 2001 and Hal meets Silent Running.. and if it does, what a fantastic LoveChild!! :) |
Looks awesome, a must see when it hits dvd. I kept thinking that the computer sounded alot like kevin spacey for some strange reason, guess its just me. |
Love Sam Rockwell, and the film looks pretty good. Can't wait. |
And yeah, I saw Joshua. Creepy as fuck kid, I thought Sam did a great job in it. |
wow didn't expect it to look so good |
