*Don't read this post if you haven't watched the movie and you're as anal as I am about it.
When we haunted the movie theatres in London in June, we were intrigued by the trailers to Moon. We couldn't wait to watch the movie.
MOON: Movie Trailer - Watch more amazing videos here
It took alot of effort to restrain from googling or reading any sort of reviews about the movie. So one fine morning, I had to flip through Life!. It left me fuming. I had accidentally flipped to Life!'s review of Moon. I instinctively averted my eyes, but not before I saw the word 'clone'. WAH LAU. Damn effing brilliant lor. I was damn pissed off man.
Thank goodness that it's still worth watching. I like it. It borrowed many ideas and paid homage to Blade Runner and Ghost in A Shell. Moon has a nice air of mystery, but it doesn't go too deep into the emotions of the clones when they finally realize what has been happening. You heard that song on the alarm clock? It's Chesney Hawkes' 'The One and Only'. So ironic!
It's still a good choice at the cinema and doesn't waste your 97 minutes.
