    It has such a horrible anti-climax that the rest of the movie is awful. The ending also sucks. Big hairy balls.

    A film about the future? Some things were interesting and actually it was exciting, but i didnīt think it was so real. I great movie are supposed to be that. The more like reality, the better. But here they didnīt succeed. The acting and plot...ok!

    I bought this in a double pack with Danny Boyle's Sunshine. I don't think there could have been two completely different movies. While Sunshine was detailed and thrilling. Supernova was generic and uninspiring. It takes about a hour for anything to happen and when it does there's 20 minutes left in the movie.

    My DVD copy of Sunshine came with this movie for free. Wal Mart has a habit of selling new movies on DVD with free copies of crappy movies. Why? Who knows.
    I think this was a Sci Fi channel original that somehow got the big budget theatrical treatment. It's just really really dumb. One or two nifty sci fi concepts are introduced, but not really dealt with at all, I don't even remember seeing a supernova in the movie, and, well, zero-gravity sex is dumb too. Color-scheme sucked too. And umm, well, I could go on, but meh.

    Let it be known that if Coppola had kept the scenes in the deleted scenes section in the DVD in the film I would be giving this an easy 4 stars. Not only is Coppla supposedly a hack nowadays, but he irrecoverably hurt Walter Hill's career with his attempt to make a great sci-fi more "mainstream".

    This film is an interesting one despite the critics' opinions.
    Interesting scene: Robin Tunney's and Lou Diamond Phillips' character are filling out an application for "reproduction." Very interesting! Who thought of that masterpiece!? Ingenious thought...genius!

    A decent enough offering for Sci-Fi fans, but nothing particularly groundbreaking - Event Horizon is much better.

    They edited the good out of this film... the heart of this film hit the cutting room floor and what was left was just a shell and not a very good one.

    A mediocre and lackluster scifi/horror film. I appreciated the attempt at tension but it manages to only mildly entertain.

    Truely one of thsoe films which "could" be excellent, effects, story cast......but then turns out to be so bad you can't even be bothered to correct your own spelling mistakes. A feeble excuse for a Sci-Fi.

    I liked this movie. The choices made by Nick Vanzant (James Spader) were very reminiscent of Gary Sinise's role in Mission to Mars. A good watch all things considered.

    No one I know really liked this movie except for me. I thought it was fun, a little creepy with cool effects. Not spectacular, but fun to watch every now and again.

    Not the terrible movie it's made out to be - it's good-looking, well cast, and has its moments. Of course, it's endlessly derivative and predictable, but it's not a bad watch if there's nothing else on TV or something.

    Mindless rubbish. 'Supernova' tries to cater to sci-fi fans by exploring some trendy Astrophysics concepts, but very little research was actually done. To make it worse, stupid things keep happening for absolutely no reason.

    I like this movie because of all the specail effects and the twists when the crew of the ship find out that the man they resued is actually the man that is a criminal also the twist at the end when the man and the woman goes into a stasis pod and when they come out they find out there going to have a baby

    A complete mess but the cast alone makes this an interesting mess. Spader is excellent, as is Angela Bassett. Robin Tunney gets very little to do except get naked frequently and die, but she does it well. The story is nonsense but what did you expect after being rewritten so many times and being passed from director to director in a desperate attempt to save it. Another movie in which the "making of" documentary would be much more interesting than the film itself.

    When the credits rolled I was actually hoping that it had just begun, although I'm thinking it was probably for the best that it ended.

    This movie wsa hilarious. Directed by some geniuses and crap this movie was passed around like a bad stock on wallstreet... god this movie was so bad... and the directors cut was even worse actually... it could have been like... ok.... but instead it's just horrible...

    i mean i really like the idea... but the execution of it all stinks...

    IT STINKS AND I DON'T LIKE IT

    To be honest, all I remember of this movie -- aside from hating it immensely -- is the silly making-love-in-space nonsense with James Spader. There were also some odd jokes being made about a guy pushing a wheel...
