Supernova

The gripping story of a deep space search and rescue mission to recover the last remaining survivor of an abandoned medical ship. The six member crew of the Nightingale 229 (including Spader, Bassett, and Forster) answer the mysterious man's (Facinelli) desperate plea for help, but when they collect him, they discover that their problems have compounded. In addition to sensing evil powers within the alien artifact he's brought with him, it appears that a nearby star is about to explode, taking the Nightingale with it. The race is on for survival in this atmospheric action-thriller.

    Very entertaining

    Whilst containing very few surprises, and certainly not being on a par with Danny Boyle's recent 'Sunshine,' this is still an excellent film. James Spader is very good.

    better than expected

    The effects in this film are very very good, the story is ok but it is predictable with some large plot holes. However, if you like science fiction films them it's worth a rent, I personally really liked it.
