A spaceship carrying the biggest nuclear weapon ever made is heading for the heart of the sun; what could possibly go wrong?

The answer, of course, is everything- including the script- which halfway through gives up trying to be 2001 and turns into Nightmare on Elm Street.  It's a dull, good-looking film- full of excitement, short on interest.

Some of the characters are noble, some ignoble and that's about all that there is to say about them. Rose Byrne is pretty and so is Cillian Murphy who bears a remarkable- even distracting- resemblance to Professor Brian Cox.

It was a reasonably pretty movie, but it descended so far into stupid towards the end that I couldn't forgive it. Apart from anything else, why doesn't your fire alarm have an actual alarm? 'Hey guys, something's on fire!' would have been a useful message.

Danny Boyle has made some excellent movies- but this wasn't one of them.
