Bob Mondello
Start calculating the costs to Lunar Industries of its singular form of devaluing, and Moon's central premise stops making sense.
Duane Byrge
A well-assembled sci-fi thriller.
Dennis Harvey
Moon actually gets a little dull in the later reels, just when it should be peaking in mystery and tension.
Ruth Hessey
An eccentric sci-fi which cleverly deconstructs the mythology of the Star Treks and Star Wars which have colonised the future of our imaginations with their glamour, self-importance and operatic sound tracks.
Dave Calhoun
The film is not entirely logical, but it raises pleasing questions and looks beautiful.
Rene Rodriguez
Most contemporary sci-fi movies come on with all CGI-guns blazing, trying to blow the roof off the theater. Moon settles for trying to blow your mind instead.

This eerie drama harks back to sci-fi movies of the late 60s and early 70s that explored inner as well as outer space.
User reviews

Sam Rockwell. Enough said. This movie cuts the crap and places you right down into it. Sam Rockwell is amazing and really makes you feel like the environment he is in is on the desolate barren moon. And there's always something to be said for Kevin Spacey playing a robot. Overall, one of my favorite sci-fi's of all time.
