A superb masterpiece, that only conscious heads and hearts will understand.

Rating: 10/10 (5 May 2014)

I had to create an IMDb account just to review this particular movie and I will explain why. For too long I avoided watching it. My friends and most people I know kept bashing on "Gravity" and making comments on how "poor", "lame", "slow" and overall uninteresting it is. So, that kept me from even looking up the trailer for it... After a couple weeks I felt this urge to watch it, just to have a good laugh on how "stupid and ridiculous" it supposedly is. Let me just point out right now that I like mostly all genres of movies but focus mainly on Action/War/Terror movies, for those usually entertain me the most. So when I decided to watch this movie, I wasn't expecting much... just the big laugh that people were telling me I would have.
By the time it was over I got off the TV, sat on my bed, laid back in awe, and realized this is probably my favorite movie ever. Such is the power of watching a beautifully written and directed masterpiece + having the lowest expectation + being used to fast-paced "popcorn" movies + being really in need for a movie like "Gravity". The movie held all my attention from the very first minute. Not for a single moment was I bored, for there is tension, action, emotion and beautiful photography in literally every second of it, and it's all so superbly balanced, in a way I've never seen before. It's been a very long time since a movie touched and moved me like this one, so I wanted to kinda thank that by writing this review and recommending it to anyone who's thinking about watching it. It's a complete breath of fresh air from everything I've watched to date.
There are people who simply didn't like this movie for a variety of reasons and that is perfectly fine. I can understand that. But then I see so many people stating this is the worst movie ever made... well, those people are probably used to only watching Vin Diesel movies and their own favorite movies (probably Nolan's "Batmans" or The Fast & Furious series, or The Avengers, etc). I'm not saying this one's better than those, though. I'm not comparing anything. Those are all great titles, and I'm a fan of them too. But "Gravity" is like "Her", "WALL-E", "Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind" or "Moon"... you gotta be conscious and open to fully enjoy it.
