You Are My Sunshine

Saw Sunshine on Friday night.  Liked it a lot, though was left feeling slightly dissatisfied.  My initial instinct was to think it needed a few more immediate explanations, which is not something I usually over-worry about, being able to interpret perfectly well for the most part.  And I hated the shooting style adopted for certain sequences (I'll be good about not spoiling things, but it's the bits involving the twist that they actually give away themselves in the film's trailer).

But then, reading the review in the first (generally excerable) issue of new sci-fi mag Sci-Fi Now, I realised that my level of dissatisfaction arose from the same problem that their reviewer had with it, which is that it doesn't know what kind of film it wants to be.  It starts out in one style, then abruptly jumps to another, then to another, and finally ends up in a totally different genre than the one in which it started.

Annoying, but not in a way that means I didn't mostly enjoy it.
