Big Screen: Sunshine

Very much in the tradition of the Alien movies…except for there not being an alien. Or not really. More about how you don’t NEED for there to be an alien for everything to fall apart; that long journeys and close quarters and just being human can be enough to make things go bad. That’s mostly what the movie is about. Although there was a bit at the end that I really had to wonder why it was even there. Didn’t seem like it helped the storyline / may even have hurt it.

Cillian Murphy always freaks me out, no less here; he’s got a weird Albino-esque-ness to him for a darkhaired dude, doesn’t he? The main girl from 28 Weeks Later is here also, as well as “Flame on!” from the Fantastic 4, Michelle Yeoh, and a couple other sort-of recognizable but I can’t really place them dudes.

Good acting, pretty enjoyable stuff. Except for the bit I mentioned before.
