Matcollis This Movie Can Only Be Described With One Word.
FirstWitch A movie that not only functions as a solid scarefest but a razor-sharp satire.
mraculeated The biggest problem with this movie is it’s a little better than you think it might be, which somehow makes it worse. As in, it takes itself a bit too seriously, which makes most of the movie feel kind of dull.
Brendon Jones It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.
trepessa This is a TV movie which is about as good as most. People want this to match science but it is science "fiction" and most reviewers who are lay and some professionals always forget this issue. Compare it to Star Wars, there's nothing believable in any of those stories. Star Trek is the same way from the beginning; TV or movies. What is different with this movie is the modern setting and the film gives a more real life feel to it but it isn't. It is pure fiction therefore nothing in it has to be scientific. This is fantasy and if someone doesn't like the premise of the story it doesn't mean the actors are performing badly. The acting was fine. This movie is about the first commercial space flight to do an excursion around the moon and back to Earth using experimental drives. It's not a documentary or is it d to be a docudrama. This is pure science fiction. Obviously it's not a movie that would be released in theaters but it is a disaster movie and if it wasn't, there would be nothing to root for. It explores relationships between the characters and their love ones. I have seen far worse science fiction movies than this one. This is what I do, watch movies. This is an overcome diversity movie. If you like that type of movie you'll love this one. Most reviews here are too harsh. If one is looking for science fact, watch a documentary. This movie is fantasy and doesn't need to be based in any science fact, just be entertaining. There is a definite sub plot; how to get the spaceship back to Earth. They have a side issue of one of the characters I won't go into based in a medical care facility helping people in Pakistan. It deals with the reason one of the engers went on the flight to draw attention to their cause. They aren't able to save those on the space flight and the consequences of it crashing into the sun is the main plot of the movie due to the sun activity that drew the ship there.
wayne-526 I don't get all the negative, self-righteous criticism of the movie. It's a movie about a next-generation space shuttle that can take civilians into space and to the moon rather quickly. Of course it's not believable because it's impossible to do something like that. So set your belief aside and enjoy the movie for what it is: science fiction. Of course you can't talk back and forth instantly to a spacecraft that's near the Sun, but think about how boring it would have been if the director had made it realistic and we had to wait 8 minutes for each response. The person who criticized the part about the cell phone being used to call the shuttle obviously missed the part where the computer geek patches it through the company space communications system. The special effects were better than I expected, although I got tired of seeing the sun shown as a giant ball of lava-like material. Sun loops are magnetic and have a certain form -- nothing like what was portrayed. Since the entire movie is about how the Sun behaves, I would have thought they'd pay more attention to trying to make it look like what it actually does.
kyles-852-795804 Spoiler Alert!!!! This entire review is a spoilerJeff has decided to put forth over 160min of propagandist drama that lacks in both draw and intelligence and most especially direction.Aside from the poor directing, writing, and staging... The plot is a poor attempt of and (simply put) leftest garbage.Basically, the main plot is simply.. A corporate interest space flight puts the world at risk with a futuristic spacecraft and a flight gone wrong. Then it's left up to Uncle Sam and a scientific genius to save the day with their secret and improved version of a stolen knockoff of the same space craft. (Obviously the Gov can do it better).Here are the subtle sub-plots that you get to trudge though..Corporate greed threatens the world.The Gov and Scientists are the savors.Hispanic's are good people who want nothing more than to help.Small city bureaucracy is evil.Capitalistic entrepreneurs are greedy.Capitalistic entrepreneurs need to learn to help others. Oh, and The worst subplot of all...Radical Muslim Fanatics are really nice people.. If you are willing to murder a child to save the family honor.Good stuff Jeff - Can't wait to see your next load of CR@P!!
Kidst Ayalew Two astronauts who do not particularly get along aim to save the world before the sun explodes. So yes, the title is self explanatory. However this means that Don Wincroft (David james) and fellow astronaut Craig Bakus (Anthony lemke) have to put their differences aside and try to forgive each other as Don Wincroft is now the husband of Craig Bakus' wife Cheryl Wincroft (Natalie Brown), what makes matters worst? Is that these two big headed astronauts used to be best friends. Jeff Schechter who is the writer of this improbable science fiction, may have not gotten all the facts accurate when it comes to the scientific aspect of things to say the least, unless you believe that the sun is not hot or big enough to burst a spaceship that is a billion times smaller into pieces, but my favorite was that people could reach the moon in less than 8 hours, baring in mind I could get to Africa in that exact time. However we have to that this is a fiction movie and anything can happen, also the beautiful cinematography by Michael st. Martin and the sound effects which weren't too overpowering created the perfect amount of tension and excitement. The performance by the all Canadian cast (including the director Michael Robison) was at a satisfactory standard. The acting was convincing throughout the movie.Nevertheless, we are introduced to various of different characters with all very different status from the president of the United States to very intimidating and angry afghan citizens to a very down to earth local nurse. One cant help but notice that Jeff Schechter wanted to capture more than the tragedy of the sun exploding, and in 3 hours he sure did. We see how even people who couldn't have a more different lifestyle and no matter how powerful one is everyone has emotions and it really highlights the important things in this world including family and friendship.Overall the movie had a deeper message than just the sun exploding and even though the the scientific facts weren't up to scratch, it was a very enjoyable and touching film. I found it somehow inspiring as it restored my faith in humanity while people strived to save themselves and each other. I recommend you watch it if you have three hours to spare.Kidst Ayalew.
