Highly over rated

Rating: 2/10 (21 October 2013)

I really think this movie is doing well simply because there is nothing else to see at the movies and at least this movie is visual. Had this movie run when better movies were playing at the same time Gravity would be considered a dud. It feels like the movie deleted key parts of the script, like the beginning. We really learn very little about the main character and George Clooney's character basically is a wisecracking astronaut with bad stories who flies around a lot in his space suit. Sandra Bullock plays this part very well but at 50 years old perhaps a younger actress would have made more sense. The movie is very visual and it has some great shots. However, quite a bit is not plausible and simply would not happen so don't look for accuracy. Don't expect much and you'll like it...but it really doesn't deserve the hype.
