Sunshine is the seventh movie of talented cult director Danny Boyle (Trainspotting, 28 Days Later etc.), a science fiction epic influenced by cult movies like Space Odyssey and Solaris. While the plot itself is the circling aground huge ship and the dying sun the main thing are happening in the minds of the crew. The only bad thing in the movie is the ending the last part of the movie is like a space slasher with not much soul and ideas. Still the main part is spectacular, the movie is definitely a must see thing.

The soundtrack was made by Danny Boyle’s “brother in sound” John Murphy, who made spectacular soundtracks to 28 Days Later and the follow-up 28 Month Later. Main part was written by the band Underworld and then sent to John who composed this masterpiece. As music the soundtrack is space ambient electronica, but it resembles the movie completely and tells the same story in sound, the story of hope and despair, of genius and madness, of losing and gaining. The last stand of humanity in vibes and clicks. Sunshine is truly one of the best works in musical scores for last few years.
