Hi - I made copyedits as I go (please revert if I inadvertently changed the meaning) and jotted queries below: Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 04:17, 13 September 2019 (UTC)


 * Sunshine explores physics, science and religion - err, ok. sentence a bit short. Might flow better if fleshed out a little....


 *  Preceding its initial screening to the public, the film was generally met with positive critical reviews, but was not considered a box office success. - why is the "preceding" segment here? Surely both items are not dependent on that...?


 * After completion of filming for Sunshine, Boyle said [that he would not revisit the science fiction genre, citing] production as a spiritually exhausting experience - can remove the bracketed bit as is stated again in next sentence. Or remove the latter instead.


 * The director had also received advice that there would be advanced space programs with India and Brazil, but the advice was overlooked to avoid creating a cast that was too disparate - "overlooked" an odd choice, "ignored" or "not taken up" better


 * Okay I wanna know...what is the alternative ending? Can slot in nicely after discussion of it....


 * This was partly due to "disputes" between the lawyers of Underworld and Fox Searchlight. - why the quotes? choose another word (to distance from source) and dequote


 * Did anyone talk about the sun-worship of two of the characters? Also the supernatural quality of the Icarus I captain?

Overall a good read. Not too much work required...

1. Well written?:
 * Prose quality: - see above
 * Manual of Style compliance:

2. Factually accurate and verifiable?:
 * References to sources: - some citations needed
 * Citations to reliable sources, where required:
 * No original research:

3. Broad in coverage?:
 * Major aspects:  - see above
 * Focused:

4. Reflects a neutral point of view?:
 * Fair representation without bias:

5. Reasonably stable?
 * No edit wars, etc. (Vandalism does not count against GA):

6. Illustrated by images, when possible and appropriate?:
 * Images are copyright tagged, and non-free images have fair use rationales:
 * Images are provided where possible and appropriate, with suitable captions:

Overall:
 * Pass or Fail: - pending some issues to address outstanding issues listed above, which may be of help for future editors. Cas Liber (talk · contribs) 09:33, 4 November 2019 (UTC)
