Okay I have just finished watching Danny Boyle’s Sunshine staring Cillian Murphy and Chris Evans. I had previously seen this at the cinema so I was looking forward to watching it in full HD 1080p. For those who do not know the story behind this movie it is essentially a save the world Sci-fi movie about a bunch of astronauts and scientists on a mission to deliver a bomb to reignite the sun which is dying and causing an Ice Age back on Earth. If you like science fiction then I am confident that you will enjoy this movie. I would give it 3.5 Stars out of 5.

Video: This is a stunning presentation. Colours are vibrant and blacks are deep and clear. The only sequences which I found annoying were some of the “glare in lens” which I am assuming is deliberate by the director. Other than that I cannot really fault the movies picture quality. Certainly up there with Apocalypto IMO. I would give it 4.5 out of 5

Audio: It contains a DTS HD 5.1 which sizzles. It’s really a tremendous sound track . The deep sound of space and the sizzling effect of the sun across the ship is fantastic. On one or two occasions I found vocals to be diminished mainly when the actors were trying to speak across the alarms going off on the ship. But I think this is a calibration issue with my centre speaker. I will have to sort that out over the coming weekend. I would give it a 3.5 out of 5.

Supplements/Extras: Not really into extras but it does contain deleted scenes and commentary from Danny Boyle which I have not experienced and not likely to in the near future. Lol.

Overall I would give this movie a 3.75 out of 5. I am reluctant to give it a 4 as there have been better sci-fi’s but rarely has space looked this good.
