I really enjoyed MOON as well. I have to say, even though I had seen the trailer, I was still surprised in how the particular twist was revealed - which I'm sure would be more surprising if I wasn't aware of the twist. But, I'm one of those people that goes to the movies more for the journey, than for the plot. (Which might be why I tend to enjoy a lot of movies, that would be considered bad - Transformers 1, for example; although I disliked 2 a lot.)<br><br>While I did like the way that they worked with the one actor/two roles, thing, there were a few moments that didn't seem that believable. (I actually thought that the ping-pong part wasn't that great. Fun, but not great.)<br><br>Also, the countdown clock seemed to be either really slow, or Sam Rockwell can move really fast? (ie. searching the whole complex and/or driving all over the moon.)<br><br>But, I agree. Great movie, even better as a low-budget, science fiction movie. I liked the show.
