Sunshine appears to be an amalgam of Alien, 2001 and Event Horizon (at least, if Event Horizon's previews adequately communicate the film's content, not having seen it). There are Alien references abound, a handful of 2001 ones, and no Event Horizon ones I'm aware of... I imagine they'd try to hide those as well as possible. It also owes more than a little to Solaris--both versions. And for the majority of Sunshine, it's a frequent disappointment. Danny Boyle and Alex Garland--after 28 Days Later...--doing sci-fi doesn't make much sense, especially since the resulting Sunshine is a standard science fiction movie, as opposed to Days doing something different, both in terms of story and technology.

Contiene un par de escenas bellas gracias a unos trabajados efectos especiales, pero sucumben ante la incoherencia general, el aburrimiento, la saturación, el exceso y la agresión de unos atronadores efectos de sonido que solo invitan a sa | | By: EL ESCONDITE DE IVAN | | |
