Duncan Jones Moon: Do clones dream of uncopyrighted sheep?

Abstract

Moon (Duncan Jones, 2009) quietly and silently bursts into a sci-fi dominated by F/X and the thrilling action by means of a visual treatment that prevents spectacular computer generated images from stepping up the narrative pulse. On the contrary, the film is based on a crafty man-made aesthetic that send the spectator back to the classics of science fiction. However, some of the main topics are also typical to late science fiction, especially cyberpunk, by the role played by corporations on the exploitation of men (or of beings that are in the dim limits of humane) through technology.
