Sunshine

Gist of it: it's 2057, sun's going dark and the crew of the Icarus II has to deliver a payload of all of Earth's remaining nuclear-capable material into the core of the sun to re-ignite it. Everything else is major spoilers, so I won't tell you even if they are obvious, the twists are one of the best parts of the movie.


Wow this movie has left me speechless. I was told ahead of time that the science in this movie is iffy if not outright bogus, so I focused exclusively on the cast side of things.

The acting blew my mind, unlike 28 Days/Weeks later it was humans not fighting for their own survival, but that of all humanity. Seeing how they act almost all altruistically was a refreshing change and seeing Chris Evans (Mace) in this movie makes up for Fantastic Four (maybe). The idea of giving all the cast a near equal emphasis was brilliant and helped make it feel more human, a team effort.

It's like an inverse of Alien, you know what's going to happen in the end, but you have an opposite feeling about it.

Jam it back in, in the dark.

What?
There's already a thread?

...


Wait one second! I did a search for "sunshine" (http://www.gamingforce.org/forums/se...archid=1232916) and the closest thing I came up to it was the promo soundtrack.

But I digress, now I don't have anything left to say that already hasn't been said.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

The best part is after reading a few articles about Sunshine, it was stated that Cilian Murphy converted to atheism after finishing the film.

Was the captain of Icarus I that much of a fundamentalist douche have him arrive at that decision?

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

But if you convert to atheism, isn't the concept of condemning yourself to Hell not even a factor?

Either way, I liked Sunshine. Not Boyle's best, but I still found it entertaining.
On a similar note is Trainspotting any good?

I am a dolphin, do you want me on your body?
