Negative Positive
Title: Eh.
Review: I love Sam Rockwell, and I was sure that I'd love the movie based on the reviews and the trailer...I didn't. This movie has an excellent idea, but though Sam Rockwell is a fantastic actor, he wasn't electrifying to watch. His performance was genuine and incredible, but boring. There would be periods when it would feel like the movie would pick up and take me somewhere exciting, but then it wouldn't deliver. I wasn't looking for Michael Bay 'splosions and Roland Emerich-level apocalypses, but this seemed more like a novel playing out on screen than a movie. A novel that didn't translate well to images.Moon has a lot of potential. A really fantastic idea, an interesting group of actors, an interesting ending and a thoroughly developed lead character are all things that the movie has going for it. The movie just failed to deliver on all of its promise. It could have been so much more than it was... but it just wasn't.
Is the review positive or negative?
