Sunshine

This was a really good one.

The biggest thing about this was how small this thing was domestically. This seems like a movie that should have found an audience but never did. Maybe after the success of 'Slumdog Millionaire'it wil find a DVD audience.

I thought it reminded me a lot of 2001, Alien, and Event Horizon. I hear it's a lot like Solaris, but I haven't seen that.

It plays on a really big scale but its actually not a very big budget. Just the thought of saving the dying sun was enough to make this movie seem big. the computer effects were nothing more than establishing shots.

This movie is really enjoyable if you like "hard" sci-fi.



by the way, got to see watchmen for the second time. I'm writing my thoughts now. Should be up soon.
