Fred G @RT22374547 Oct 18, 2026 I love epic sci-fi films, so I wonder how this one snuck by me in 2007... "Sunshine" is a tight, suspenseful -- even harrowing -- adventure in which a crew of scientists head to the sun, which is dying, to recharge it with some kind of atomic blast or similar. In fact, "Sunshine" reminds me of "Gravity" or "The Martian," in which the protagonists must contend with one deadly catastrophe after another. Anchored by a good cast, as well as fine special effects and an enveloping surround-sound audio track. Good stuff!

Loved the casting choices and the actors and actresses portrayed their characters well. Like others though, the final acts didn't quite deliver like the rest of the movie. I actually got confused at the end, and to consult chat gpt then go back and watch the last sequence again. But that was probably me rather than the film makers.

Realistisch ist der Film nur grade so viel um ein ungefähres gefühl zu erzeugen und einen Rahmen zu geben in welchem die Handlung stattfinden kann. "Sonnenlicht braucht für die Distanz von Sonne bis Erde ca. 7min, Sonne sehr heiß, Sauerstoff wichtig." Alles darüber hinaus hat mit sci-fi wirklich nur noch im namen etwas zu tun. Was nichts negatives ist. Der film schafft es so, sehr gut mit "Vibes" emotionen zu vermitteln. Z.b. "In den verkohlten Überresten des sauerstoffgarten sitzend stirbt corazon, in den Händen den letzten setzling auf den ihr blut tropft." Kein Shakespeare aber ich finde auch kein Klischee, simplicity in tone, sound, image and image. Mit dem Eigenen Tod als Gewissheit dennoch Hoffnung zu verspüren, ist als finales, von den Bildern vermitteltes Gefühl etwas seltenes, etwas unbequemes und etwas sehenswertes. See more George H @George107 Jul 30, 2026 Sunshine’s stunning visuals conceal a fantastic comedy feast. Everyone’s a total stereotypical character, depending on the drama unfolding. Watch for the props, the magical technology and the crews deadpan response to everything. Boyle’s tribute to Kubrick maybe? See more Nate D @MamdanisDomMommy Jul 23, 2026 The production design was thoroughly enjoyable to behold. That's about the only good thing I can say about this film. The characters are about what you'd expect from a 7th grade creative writing class and are all impossible to believe or care about in any way. Why is only one crew member trained in the operation of the tool the mission's success depends upon? Why do they have absolutely no operational plan in place for repairing failed shield tiles? Why can't the otherwise omniscient ship's computer double check proposed course changes? Why is the weirdo meat captain they stole from Event Horizon trying to sabotage everything? Who cares.
