MODERATORS
Moon - really good psychological element and great acting.
Pandorum - fun (and a bit hammy) action horror romp.
Twelve Monkeys - really tight and suspenseful plot with great acting.
Being John Malcovich - not sure if this fits in, but a great mind-bender of a sci-fi movie.
Man, Moon is such a good movie. Sam Rockwell absolutely killed it which I was quite impressed by considering the last thing I saw him in was as Zaphod Beeblebrox in Hitchhikers. Quite a different set of acting chops he exercised.
Pandorum was a damn good film, a little goofy sure, but a really interesting idea based around what would happen if someone in that situation really did go off the rails and turn a colony ship into their own personal fantasy/hell for everyone else.
Yeah I watched it several times and it's so cheesy and silly but also... yeah people huddling up to the nuclear reactors for warmth seems about the way that would go looking at human activity today
I mean it's a fusion plant, it's not radioactive like the uranium fission we use today. They mutated because of the drug they were given in stasis.
Wellllll.... guess it's time to rewatch Dennis Quaid ham it up in an empty room again cause I forgot some of the plot points.
I love that Shepard from flight team 3 is played by a somewhat before he got big Norman Reedus.
Kung fu stuff? Did we watch the same movie?
