Jeff G To be fair this is my favorite movie of all time. Which is a fun "i'm pretty sure i'm the only one with this opinion" thing to bust out at parties. The first two acts are different genres than the last, and most people with issues hate that third act. It was weird for me at first but the more I watch it the more I feel that is redeemed by its ending. The cast is STACKED. The visuals are INSANE. It basically is every generic disaster movie but (spoiler) every time a character dies it's done in a way that makes you emotional. It's also a quick watch, with multiple Oscar winners both in front of and behind the camera. Love this one!

Rated 1.5/5 Stars •  Rated 1.5 out of 5 stars 02/05/25 Full Review Nex0n ! The scenario was so boring that they had to make it a psychological horror half way through Rated 2.5/5 Stars •  Rated 2.5 out of 5 stars 01/19/25 Full Review Rosana B Um ótimo filme de ficção cientifica espacial, ótimos efeitos, os debates filosóficos são agradáveis e curtos, bons diálogos, ótimos atores, surrealista, algumas imagens distorcidas incomodam, dilacerações e cristalizações humanas adoráveis, as questões religiosas um tanto quanto exagerada, mas interessante, Darwin versus Deus, desanda um pouco, mas nada que prejudique o saldo final, criticado pela imprecisão cientifica, mas quem liga? Grande maioria dos cinéfilos são leigos… Adorável... Rated 4/5 Stars •  Rated 4 out of 5 stars 01/06/25 Full Review Orlando C Wow,what an over-hyped, overrated turkey. Science fiction? Send a bomb to the sun to restart it. That's it. The rest is angry people arguing with each other and a Jason/Michael Myers 3rd degree burn victim philosophy undergrad student espousing esoterical nonsense. Rated 0.5/5 Stars •  Rated 0.5 out of 5 stars 12/09/24 Full Review Esther K A mind-boggling and perfect eye candy, Sunshine (2007) is a very immersive take on the sci-fi genre which quickly placed all my five senses in its hot, sizzling and suspenseful world. This is my first sci-fi movie ever and thank goodness this was my first, because it has honestly given me a largely favorable impression of the genre. Evidently, Sunshine was more of a dilemma narrative based on science vs ethics, etc. It could have easily become a really bitter pill to swallow, but it didn't. As much as I do wish that it had avoided the whole Pinbacker "monster" as the crazed antagonist(which was very appalling though) and instead imo taken a more psychological route, rather than in-my-face horror, Sunshine is still a highly recommended film as well as a highly underrated masterpiece. The cast was spiffing and so dedicated to their multi-layered roles that I really must hand it to them, as much the characters did kick the bucket, some much earlier than others. I'm really glad that Chris Evans took up this film; as much as he is an established actor at the moment, it was really films like Sunshine and Snowpiercer that really portrayed his versatility. I do agree that there would have(realistically) been some form of protocol directing the crew on the decisions that they're expected to make in unexpected scenarios and emergencies(of course, I don't know if that protocol would include "how to handle a murderous monster which wants to sabotage the mission" or "In case of oxygen shortages, kill lower priority crewmembers"). Maybe the creators intentionally chose to omit the protocol so as to display the crewmembers' varied reactions to high-risk reactions(hence helping us understand their personalities better)? Idk I'm not a filmmaker or an astronaut, but this didn't really matter to me more than a fleeting thought, since I just came to eat my popcorn while only engaging my mind, eyes and ears.
