Duncan Jones's quietly mesmerizing 2009 movie follows Sam Bell (Sam Rockwell), an astronaut who is almost at the end of a three-year stint working solo on the moon, accompanied by the robot GERTY (Kevin Spacey). However, he soon begins having what seem to be hallucinations as his departure date draws near. The plot setup echoes the paranoia of movies like "Alien" and "2001: A Space Odyssey," but Jones's story is full of surprises that sets it apart. Can you guess the twist?
Jones told ComingSoon.net that he wrote the movie specifically for Rockwell.
