It pulls you

Rating: 9/10 (7 October 2013)

I got hooked by this movie since I saw the trailer of it and the actual movie exceeded my expectation. Gravity is a survival themed movie and different from the rest of its predecessors - or at least those I have seen - there is nothing in this movie that really seems threatening. Unlike in a natural disaster movie where you can see the earth moves and bends trying to swallow the main character, or vicious animals that lurks in the dark and jumps out to eat people. This movie offers none of that but you can feel the tension, the anxiety and the rush of Doctor Ryan Stone (played by the still mesmerizing Sandra Bullock) trying to survive in space.
90% of the movie takes place in outer space with no sound and little light which is superb since it's true to the fact that you can't hear anything with no oxygen. Stunning camera works and visual effects. Almost Final Fantasy-ish in animation but better than Avatar.
The acting is marvelous just how you would expect from Bullock and Clooney - who is once again retains the role of a no-care-in-the-world tough guy. But the spotlight is indeed on Bullock. It must be hard to act on a movie where the entire thing revolves on your acting because this movie has no one except her to do all the acting.
The story is, well, there is no story. It just about how space is, a person who got lost in it and trying to get home. It could be a little boring for some because the movie is slow paced and centers around in the psychological state of the characters and the depiction of live in space instead of all the actions. But if you like simple movies that digs deep into the characters' mind then you surely will enjoy this.
All in all, this movie is fantastic. Watch it in 3D if you have the chance (because i didn't) and it should be better in it. A 9/10.
