So... no.1
how did the Icarus 1 mutant get onto the Icarus 2?

All the people on IMDB.com are arguing about "oh, the sun would never die like this" or "the bomb is so unplausible"...
Overall the only thing bugging me is how the mutant got onto the ship. Yes, I can accept he was the sole survivor and was biologically, psychologically, spiritually *totally fucked*...

I'd give the movie a 9 out of 10, with the best "hard" sci-fi in a while, moving on from Alien1+2, Contact, Abyss, to the realms of 2001, EventHorizon *yes dare I say*, and Solaris.

The only thing is that I would have preferred the end-monster, while a great plot device to cap off the doomed people (but successful mission), -- to be either more "ghostly" - like he was floating around the sun/ Icarus1 and kinda "seeped" into Icarus2... or, be more of a thriller, that they found this guy that was kinda sunburnt, headfucked but maybe some clothes or something, less of a "monster" to more "psychoguy".

So bonus points to anyone that can suggest ideas to no.1 above besides "it's all made-up rubbish". Cheers, let's get stuck into it...
