Moon (Duncan Jones, 2009)
IMDB
Couldn't find a thread on this. From Bloody-Disgusting. Synopsis has spoilers, so I used tags on that section.
One of my favorite actors of the '90s (K-PAX, why?!), Kevin Spacey (pictured inside), has joined the cast of Moon, which will be directed by David Bowie's son Duncan Jones, according to io9. He will be starring alongside Sam Rockwell, Kaya Scodelario, Benedict Wong, Matt Berry, Malcolm Stewart and Dominique McElligott. Astronaut Sam Bell has a quintessentially personal encounter while stranded on the moon for a three-year period. Read on for a longer synopsis.

Variety review:
In the sci-fi drama "Moon," the apparently sole human inhabitant of a mining base begins experiencing odd phenomena just as he's about to finish his very lonely stint and return home. U.K.-produced debut feature for advertising whiz Duncan Jones and scenarist Nathan Parker recalls such brainy sci-fiers as "2001: A Space Odyssey" and "Solaris." But despite its handsome look and good thesping workout for Sam Rockwell, the story stretches a bit thin over feature length. Fantasy fans who don't require monsters or laser battles will want a look, though overall modest impact suggests wider smallscreen exposure after brief theatrical play.

Bloody-Disgusting review:
MOON, a sincere and heartfelt feature debut from director Duncan Jones, may not take home the box office cheddar, but mark my words, is a movie that will be worshipped by science fiction lovers for years to come.

I thought this film was very good, got a chance to see it a couple of weeks ago at the philly film fest and really enjoyed it and thought that this was what sunshine could have been.
