Sunshine (R)

I treated my brit to a bit of science fiction the other night with Sunshine at the Fox Tower. It started out a little low-key, almost like watching sci-fi on teevee, but sped up halfway through and was pretty cool! It's the future (of course) and a group of scientists (of course) are on their way to deliver a bomb at the sun to kick-start it so it'll warm up again. There's a bit of science, a bit of psychology, a bit of religion and "who's running this show anyway?" I'll give it 3.8 payloads out of 5 and that's generous for this non-sci-fi girl.
