And wasn't it tiring to count?)
The film isn't about some bomb on the sun at all, but about the behavior of people who find themselves in such isolation and in a dangerous situation, and who also have the mission of saving the Earth. The essence is in this, just as the film "The Mist" is not about monsters from some other dimension, but about people and how they can change under pressure. Everything else is just assumptions in a science fiction film; 99% of science fiction would make physicists facepalm if you really think about it.

The film takes place in the near future (2047). The crew of the rescue spacecraft "Lewis and Clark" is sent to Neptune in response to a sudden distress signal from the ship "Event Horizon," which disappeared without a trace seven years earlier. Along with the rescue crew is Dr. William Weir (Sam Neill), a physicist and the designer of the "Event Horizon." When the "Lewis and Clark" arrives in Neptune's orbit, Weir tells the rescuers that the missing ship was actually a secret project for faster-than-light travel. The "Event Horizon's" engine warps space-time and creates an artificial wormhole to any point in the universe. The ship was supposed to jump to Proxima Centauri and return, but it disappeared. The only signal coming from the suddenly reappeared ship consists of heart-wrenching screams and the Latin phrase "liberate me" (Latin for "save me"), repeated in the voice of Captain Kilpatrick.

Finally, the crew learns the truth about where the ship disappeared to. When the ship opened a hole in space-time, it entered a "dimension of true chaos, true evil" – a kind of hell. A video recording of the events of the first jump showed that the members of the first crew, after the engine was activated, indulged in orgies of torture, cannibalism, and violence. The Latin phrase spoken by the deceased captain actually says "liberate tutamae ex inferis" (Latin for "save yourselves from Hell"). But the most terrible thing is that some kind of otherworldly presence has somehow entered the ship itself, which methodically drives the new crew insane. Apparently, this entity is trying to return to the dimension of chaos.

the film is British

I saw a white lizard in one of the artworks.

I only see a Terminator on the last artifact.

I disagree with the statement that science fiction is purely psychological; it's more reasonable to consider it as a synthesis of psychology and scientific theory about advanced technologies, and the latter is actually the key to the genre and provides the spectacle. As for the "hellish" plot, I've already expressed my opinion – it's a template scheme for horror movies; people go crazy, what can you do?

I'm amazed by you, you reasonable people.

Analyzing science fiction films not only from a psychological but also from a scientific perspective and identifying inconsistencies with reality seems rather unserious. Of course, you can find fault with anything. The plot is somewhat шаблонный, but nowadays it's becoming increasingly difficult to find an original science fiction plot; everything has been explored thoroughly, in my opinion. I didn't like Dead Space because of its шаблонность, although for some reason almost everyone likes it. It's a slightly different example, but it's still science fiction.

I only heard the rap song by Syava called "Everything is a Lie," is it somehow related to this movie?

Of course, some scientific inaccuracies are permissible, but the implication is that in the future, something will be discovered that we don't know now. For example, I can't imagine how one could travel at superluminal speed, and that doesn't bother me. However, in the film in question, the focus isn't on unknown technologies, but on the increasing stupidity of viewers who are willing to swallow the most absurd ideas. That's what causes so much dissatisfaction. In my opinion, this is a disrespectful attitude towards the audience to some extent.
In the film "Pandorum," there's a similar psychological story with a captain who has gone mad (in fact, "Pandorum" is the name of the disease). However, the film doesn't seem contrived or depressing, and here's why.
- The film uses abstract, paranatural concepts (hyperson, superluminal speed, panspermia). And if, for example, the film states that the Earth was destroyed, it doesn't say HOW. It simply says , and the details aren't important – the viewer will come up with a satisfactory explanation, and on the other hand, this adds variability to the plot.
Furthermore, the scientific theory underlying the film's plot plays an important role: time and space travel = 5, the origin of life in the universe = 5, bombing the sun with nuclear bombs = 3.

Faster-than-light speed (like light speed) is impossible, as postulated by the theory of relativity. There are even formulas that describe what happens to an object as it approaches the speed of light. In general, only bodies with zero rest mass, i.e., photons of light, can possess it. So, all these hyperspace jumps (a very relevant topic for science fiction) are no less of a scientific heresy than bombarding the sun with nuclear bombs (by the way, why not consider the option that the bomb doesn't ignite the sun but simply serves as a detonator?).

There are hypotheses that allow for movement faster than the speed of light. As I understand it, they are based on the general theory of relativity.
