The upcoming sci-fi/horror film SUNSHINE -- directed by Danny Boyle of 28 DAYS LATER and TRAINSPOTTING fame -- received a fabulous review from Dark Horizons. You can access that article can be accessed directly here.
Some noteworthy quotes from Drew Turney's article below:
- "The best science fiction film for a very long time. As realistic as it is thrilling, awe-inspiring and psychological, Boyle and screenwriter Alex Garland have taken some very accepted space movie conventions and breathed fresh life into every one."
- "Space travel is a perilous thing but oddly beautiful, like a dance, and Boyle gets it pitch perfect."
- "The real kudos for emotional resonance goes to Alex Garland’s lean, razor-sharp script, which leaves out as much as it includes."
- "For a movie so strongly grounded in scientific and engineering reality, Sunshine also has a high emotional intelligence quotient, and the climax also veers into metaphysics and a little symbolism. But don’t let that deter you if it sounds a little too cerebral. Rarely do we get to enjoy such complex, adult characters, realistic dialogue and stunning imagery in the fantastic genres."
