The movie that really every futuristic movie base there designs on. I just re-watched this classic and it just looks gorgeous! It looks great on a HDTV! It totally holds up to todays CGI! Im so glad I got the chance to see it on a giant movie screen! This is before Harrison Ford became the giant action star he later became! He's actually acting! And before Rutger Hauer became a straight to video star! Just a truley great sci-fi film that everyone should check out once! |

Let me start by saying...this is the best, by far, Science Fiction movie since Stanley Kubricks 2001: A Space Odyssey! There have been other good ones since, but not like this one! 1st, the visuals are just gorgeous! Especially the lingering shots of the surface of the sun and the Icarus 2 spaceship! 2nd, the visual effects are realistic! You can really see all the research that went into it. Specifically, the shot of Mercury traveling across the surface of the sun. It looks so real! Like your actually seeing it! Which is enhanced by the shaky camera. Awsome! 3rd, the excellent acting, especially by Cillian Murphy and Chris Evans. Thumbs up to Evans, who shows he can actually play a character other then Johnny Storm in the Fantastic 4 series. And Murphy seems to be director Danny Boyle's goto guy now with good reason. Both give understated, realistic performances. Neither roll is a scene stealer but they make the most of it, showing what being trapped on a dieing spacecraft might feel like, and there desperation for saving earth. And a honorable mention goes to Cliff Curtis as the ships psychologist. He's there to help the crew with there problems, but clearly has some of his own! And Danny Boyle's direction is excellent! showing us the mundane, day to day operations of the crew at the beginning to the hectic documentary technique he used in 28 days later, by the end. And his use of music to express emotion is still spot on. All of it making you invest in the movie. Characters and the story. This is a highly recommended sci-fi movie, that shouldn't be missed! |
