Storyline, Script 1, the most important part and exciting part, the Accident that caused this, and how they got into the Escape Pod, got left on the cutting room (editing room) floor.
Kind of like making a movie about the HMS Titanic and NOT showing Events leading up to the Accident, and the Accident.
Science 2, Intensive Gravity of the Sun, plus the explosive force throwing the escape pod towards the Sun, means half the time of the entire movie.
Being a U.S. Military Officer trained and experienced Career Field Nuclear (Weapons) Physics and Physiology, Missiles, and some training with NASA, the amounts of Radiation as X Rays, Ultra Violet (UV), Gamma, Microwaves, would have roasted them inside the escape pod and Rescue Spacecraft long before the outside of the escape pod even heated up. The Earth 93,000,000 Miles away from the Sun. still must have the Magnetosphere to stop lethal exposure to Radiation from the Sun.
Entertainment Value, Action 4. Almost fell asleep numerous times. Movie could have been done in 15 minutes, real time, considering speed going to the Sun.

Some people too critical. It was a good film with some tense moments.
I knew after about ten minutes that there wouldn't be a lot of love for this film, but I rather liked it. Yes it was limited, in almost every area, yes it felt a little low budget, but for me it felt like 47 metres down up in Space, virtually the same concept, you're watching a film about hope, will he or won't be, and you're left hanging on til the end to see if he's rescued or not. I definitely wouldn't watch it again, but it was engaging enough. 6/10
The plot is too weak ..it was dragging till the end.. and I must say, this is a complete waste of time.
The main issue I had with Solis was the voice acting of the female support actor, who is probably an absolutely lovely person in real life, but when a movie totally relies on the input of just two people for its entire length, this voice acting needs to be absolutely perfect, which it wasn't.
Other than that, the plot holes and general plausibility were hard to accept and this sort of thing has been done so much better and more expansively in other movies, so although a reasonable watch, Solis doesn't have enough to recommend to others and gets a middling 5 stars, because I did quite like it.
