      I liked it. Sam Rockwell is too good.

        Agreed. Everyone should watch Heist if they haven't seen it.

      Loved that movie. He should have gotten an Oscar nom for it but Sony buried it.

      Also is there a specific reason why the first sam got ill? was it because of moon flu? or because he was a clone (something to do with clones having a dramatically shorter life span)

      my only complaint was I figured it out when the new sam rockwell woke up too early but otherwise yes, highly recommended.

          no, grandmasterlee. I understood the story all too well so that I figured out how the story would end before it played out. I'm not slamming the movie at all - quite the contrary - I loved it.

            I think he's saying that your complaint is irrelevant as it wasn't intended to be a surprise or twist in the plot

        I was too busy explaining to the girlfriend why there was two Sam's.

          I like to think of the movie as a new perspective on blade runner - but this time from the replicant's POV, and the replicant's situation

            Bladerunner is from the replicants POV as well

              oh snap, I always forget that since it's really only relatively recently recently that this came out. I still have the theatrical version etched in my brain because I saw it release day back in 1982 (yes with the shitty voice-overs).

            except that Deckard was a replicant, he just didn't know it for much more of his movie than Sam's character did in Moon!

              that is still open for debate

                no, Ridley Scott ended the debate a few years back before the "ultimate" blu-ray release and confirmed that deckard was a replicant

                I'm pretty sure they came out and said yes he was with the director's cut and ultimate cut.

      Now go play the NASA Moon base game and spam "I want to go home!" over and over.
