So, 'Solar' from 2014 is an intriguing piece of indie sci-fi. The story revolves around two scientists who, during a solar event, try to navigate back to the late 20th century. It has this kind of low-key vibe, where the pacing feels deliberate, almost meditative at times. There's a certain tension created by the looming solar phenomenon that adds to the atmosphere. The practical effects are modest but quite effective, capturing the eerie beauty of space in a grounded way. Performances aren't flashy, but there's a sincerity that resonates. It's distinctive for its exploration of time travel, not just as a plot device but as a vehicle for reflection on human ambition and the consequences of our choices. Definitely a curious watch for genre lovers.
