In space, it seems, people go mad, kill each other or get devoured by aliens.
There are no aliens in Sunshine, so you can guess what happens...
Sunshine is about the Astronauts of Icarus 2 - the second mission to reignite the dying Sun after the crew of the Icarus 1 failed their mission.
The film starts as the Icarus 2 is approaching Mercury on the final phase of their mission.
And then the mission begins to go wrong...
Sunshine is a proper science fiction film - there is some action in it - but this is a film about Man and it is almost truly great.
The sound and visual effects are spectacular (even more so as this was a low budget film) and the tempo and scariness really draw you into the film, the ending is bizarre though as so many serious, adult sci-fi films are.
9/10
