Erica and I watched the film Moon tonight. This is a good little movie that chooses an interesting thoughtful plot over flash and special effects. It is good hard SF and will be the movies that I nominate for a Hugo award. The only problem was that there were long periods of time where the pacing was a little slow. I particularly liked the use of models instead of computer graphics. CGI effects still look fake compared to a well done model.

A movie about clones is a real risk because the popular idea of clone and the scientific reality are totally different. But, Moon pulls it off and makes you care about the way a plucky clone analyzes his situation and copes.
