Verdict on Sunfall
Recap
The movie follows a group of scientists, activists and the wealthy teaming up to prevent a global disaster. It follows the sun heading towards the Earth and a race against time to prevent it.
Best Parts
This is another movie with a wonderful concept that would make an interesting, entertaining disaster movie.
Worst Parts
The problem are the budget, which is too low for the ambition presented in the concept. It has poor effects for the disaster moments, the performances are not great, with the cast struggling to show any chemistry. The world never feels in threat outside of the small group, who mostly run around with something bad near them. I can see we are trying to grab the same attention Asylum had with their low-budget disaster movies, but sadly it never comes to life.
Final Thoughts –Sunfall struggles to have any intensity in the peril presented.
