• Just okay
  I love a good sci-fi flick (it's been a while since we had one) and had heard good things about this movie.

  A science fiction film is hard to come by these days. Because mainly we as a society have ran out of good futuristic ideas. Though this plots seems a little used they completely reinvent the idea. Even using sci/fi to create an eerie mood with a disturbing character added to the cast of astronauts. The plot-The sun has exstinguished and therefore we have sent a ship into outer space with nuclear bombs attached to it that will ram into the sun and hopefully reignite it. Along the way many problems occur and... more info
