In the cold vacuum of space Moon is a breath of fresh air! At last, what fans of intelligent science fiction have been waiting for. A film with a proper plot. Ideas. Atmosphere.
Duncan Jones, known to some as Zowie Bowie, to others as David Bowie's son, directs his first major motion picture. A modest budget of 5 million dollars enables him to bring us a tale with believable subjects and brooding menace.
Sam Bell is a miner working on the moon in the near future for the resource Helium-3 which now powers Earth. Quarries on the lunar surface provide the cargo which is periodically shuttled back to Sam's home planet during his contract. This is 3 years.
The film joins Sam as he is nearing the termination of this period. He is feeling lonely - unsurprising as his only companion is GERTY, Lunar Industry's maintenance computer. As ...

WHAT IS IT:
Moon is the directorial debut from Duncan Jones (David Bowie's son!) and stars Sam Rockwell as Sam Bell. Sam is the sole human inhabitant of a lunar base and he is charged with overseeing the machines which harvest Helium3 to send back to Earth. His only company is a robot named GERTY - voiced by Kevin Spacey - whose purpose is to help Sam in any way it can. As Sam is nearing the end of his 3 year contract on the moon base, he begins to see unsettling visions and one of these visions leads him to crash a lunar buggy into one of the harvesters ...

An irreverent and raunchy foray into the world of late-night television spoofing such media phenomena as infomercials, charity drives, tabloid shockers, late-night porn, and sci-fi movies from the 1950s, AMAZON WOMEN ON THE MOON is a riotous collection of sight gags, double entendres, and general wackiness in the tradition of KENTUCKY FRIED MOVIE and THE GROOVE TUBE. Nothing is sacred in this star-studded vehicle that pokes fun at many of these television wonders. Anyone who has spent an evening channel surfing can relate to the hysterical formatting of these skits. The crazy sketches include Mondo Condo, starring Arsenio Hall as a victim of his own apartment; and Blacks Without Soul, with B.B. King making an outrageous plea to help the black people in the U.S.A born without soul. Infomercials for hair looming and Silly Pate, Tastes Great! Bounces High! are interspersed between the main feature, the late-night movie Amazon Women on the Moon, a hilarious spoof of cheap 1950s sci-fi movies featuring outrageous sets and costumes. This hysterical farce is packed with celebrity performances and in-your-face satire that mocks a wide variety of pop-culture entertainment.
