Gravity, directed by Alfonso Cuaron, was one of my most anticipated movies of the year. With amazing actors, a simple yet interesting story, and beautiful cinematography, this movie looked to be excellent. Well, it was more than excellent. Gravity is one of the best movies of the year, and one of the best movies ever set in space. STORY/WRITING: The story is simple: Sandra Bullock and George Clooney are stranded in space after an accident with no communication with NASA. But there is much more to it than that. The story is complex, with twists and turns that will keep you on the edge of your seat with your heart beating 10x faster than it should. The suspense is held throughout a huge par
Breath-taking special effects. Amazing visuals. Wonderful use of 3D IMAX technology! I really felt that I was part of an unique experience.
Gravity must be seen in 3D IMAX. The visuals are stunning, the special effects realistic and Sandra Bullock is amazing. The closest thing to riding the Space Shuttle now that there are no more Space Shuttles!!!
Sandra Bullock. That's what you get with this movie. Basic premise. But it's her backstory and the journey she goes on while in space that makes the movie. Questions about religion, faith, why is she up there, who is she, and where is her life going are all answered in detail in this movie. Not an action packed movie. Don't expect that but a movie with great acting and emotionally driven thrill and suspense. 3D IMAX was good too.
I loved the cinematography, special effects, and the amount of effort they put into simulating what space is really like. Unfortunately the plot was very weak and too unbelievable.
Visually Epic! This sci-fi master piece delivers on almost every level, including a beautiful and level performance from Sandra Bullock and the most outstanding visual effects of our time. Brilliant film-making!
Do yourself a favor: go and see this film. It’s best on a large screen: you get the full feel of the vastness of space. Excellent storing, cinematography was (he he) out of this world, stunningly good acting from Sandra Bullock. The ‘rebirth’ metaphor was applied heavy handed but it was still a great movie. Left feeling satisfied: a very rare feeling with films these days.
Great special effects
Worth while seeing in Imax 3D. Pretty amazing. Enjoyed the story line also.
An OK movie....not a 5 star effort by any stretch. Very little suspense, but reasonably good effects for those parts of the movie where they are used.
