Fifty years from now, the sun is dying, and mankind is dying with it. Our last hope: a spaceship and a crew of eight men and women. They carry a device which will breathe new life into the star. But deep into their voyage, out of radio contact with Earth, their mission is starting to unravel. There is an accident, a fatal mistake, and a distress beacon from a spaceship that disappeared seven years earlier. Soon the crew is fighting not only for their lives, but their sanity.

MOVIE REVIEW

Director Danny Boyle has taken on druggies (Trainspotting), beautiful beaches (The Beach), the living dead (28 Days Later) and creepy, psycho children (Millions, which I didn't like but other critics did), and now he has taken on another realm altogether, that of the sci-fi thriller. Sunshine is not your ordinary science fiction film, in that it does not feature aliens, the military or massive destruction - instead, it will go down among hard core fans as one of the best sci-fi films of recent memory, and it still has plenty of suspense and action to keep the rest of us thoroughly entertained.
