Moon (2009)

When one thinks of sci-fi films, usually images of super hi-tech CGI, weak plot lines and equally feeble acting. But Moon is of a different breed and having Sam Rockwell as the centre piece makes all the difference.

Sam is the solitary inhabitant of the moon and is completing his third and final year in a mining contract. He begins to see things that don't make sense and his health begins to deteriorate. A mystery and adventure begins on the monochrome surface of Earth's moon.

The simple fact that the film is original makes this film terrific to watch. But the sentiment is startling does not abandon the viewer quickly.
