Sucks! (Spoilers)

For a movie the critics are busy calling, "The thinking man's sci fi" this movie sure is retarded, even if you put aside the whole "re-ignite the sun with a big-ass bomb" stupidity. It can't seem to decide what kind of knock-off it wants to be, so it tries to become them all. First it's "2010," (No, reviewers, it's not 2001, this iis an inferior knockoff of that flick's inferior knockoff). Then it's "Sphere," (People on the ship become obsessed with staring at the sun's light at the maximum safe level, Over time they're getting more and more sunburnt oooOOOoooh!) Then it's "Quick! We're in an insanely dangerous situation! Everyone begin bickering and fighting and kvetching over 'must we sacrifice our own humanity to save all humanity?????'" Then it's "Event Horizon," (The captain of the last ship, looking like Freddy Kreuger with a lame motion blur effect covering him, comes onto their ship and goes on a killing/sabotage spree until one final closeup shot where he seems to be thinking to himself, "waitaminit, what the hell am I doing in this movie?" before disappearing completely.) Finally it's back to 2010 again.

In the end this mess just turns into a snuff film showcasing all the knarly ways you can die in space. The plot is liberally peppered with idiot moments to smooth the process along (eg: the manual controls for lowering the computer core back into the deadly coolant lie deep within the deadly coolant itself). And you can pretty much predict when and how every single casualty is going to go (The scientist remarks aloud that he thinks the explosion of the bomb will be beautiful GEE WHERE IS THIS HEADING?) I still haven't seen those "28 X later" zombie films. Do they share this movie's "trapped in a paint mixer" action scene editing?
