HI,

I'm home sick, so decided to watch a movie. I bought Sunshine based on excellent reviews...it was a blind buy. It's a mix between Sci-Fi and Drama. I thought it was a very artistic movie that had a cool plot, and kept my interest. I was wondering if anyone else has seen this movie. Danny Boyle directed.

    Sunshine is one of my favorite recent sci-fi flicks, and is a purchase-worthy Blu-ray. Fantastic video and sound to go along with an absolutely brilliant movie. Oddly, I find new things to like about it each time I watch it, which is unusual.
    Equipment list:
    Onkyo TX-NR3010 9.2 AVR
    Emotiva XPA-3 amp
    Polk RTi70 mains, CSi40 center, RTi38 surrounds, RTi28 rears and heights
    SVS 20-39CS+ subwoofer powered by Crown XLS1500

    It was a great movie to watch/listen to, but the plot was by no means a real good item for me.

    Sunshine was pretty radical material during my formative years.

    I loved everything about this movie. I did not mind the plot. It kept my interest. Visually, it has some very excellent scenes. The audio was also very good. I felt it was dynamic and the surrounds were used very wisely.
