I loved it, but I can see why it's not on the list.

I didn't hear anything but praise for it before seeing it. I was really interested in the beginning, with the whole "re-ignite the sun" thing, regardless of how implausible that seemed, and then learning about the first Icarus ship. But then somewhere around the time they found the Icarus, I think the movie just fell apart for me.

It probably didn't help that I'd recently rewatched 2001:ASO for the who-knows-how-many'th time, a few days before watching Sunshine.

This isn't sci-fi related, but... stay away from The Wrestler then.
