Poorly Written Script but Great Visuals

Rating: 7/10 (22 October 2013)

Gravity is a 2013 3D science fiction thriller and space drama film directed by Alfonso Cuarón. The film stars Sandra Bullock as in-experienced medical mission specialist Dr. Ryan Stone and George Clooney as veteran astronaut Matt Kowalski. They are the two surviving astronauts from a damaged Space Shuttle mission. The movie is their attempt to survive in space and safely return to Earth.
The script is the main flaw of the movie. It is full of scientific inaccuracies. The writers etc. could have consulted NASA to make a far better film. The story itself, although interesting, is lazy and simple in its execution. The movie is short by today's standards and barely comes in at ninety minutes.
The film makes excellent use of realistic special effects and real-time drama. Some scenes might induce motion sickness in sensitive individuals, so taking an over-the-counter drug used to prevent nausea and motion sickness is highly recommended.
