SUNDAY*

About This Movie

So, 'SUNDAY*' is an interesting blend of comedy, sci-fi, and thriller, right? It really captures that nervous energy of adolescence, especially with Leo, who's relatable in all his awkwardness. The push and pull between excitement for the sun's reveal and the chaos of his personal life creates this fantastic tension. The pacing has its moments—sometimes it kind of lulls, but that works for the themes of anticipation and dread. The practical effects they used for the sun’s rise? Quite striking. It’s not your typical teen film, and I think that’s what stands out. The director, while unknown, definitely has a unique vision. Overall, it’s an odd but intriguing watch, if you’re into that mix of genres.
