Not to be confused with: Sunshine (1999)

Plot comparison: Pulse-racing sci-fi from Danny Boyle, as astronauts take on the the unstoppable might of the sun. Title is literal. 

Alternatively, austere miserabilism from István Szabó, as a family of Hungarian Jews takes on the unstoppable might of history. Title is ironic.

If they switched directors: Boyle dirties up Hungarian history with drugs, dance music and some form of toilet-related shitstorm. 

As for Szabó... who cares?  He's gone into space. Let's party.

Irksome to whom?: The Boogie, which continues to get the blame for pretty much everything.
