Enjoyable fantasy, but bad science ruins any re watch ability.

Rating: 3/10 (27 March 2014)

The film is very well made, the effects are amazing, and the acting good, but what really lets it down is the inaccuracies.
They are using the space shuttle, the Hubble, so you expect they would have had a NASA consultant, if they did, how could they have let this happen.
I found myself screaming at the screen throughout the movie. George Clooney is joyriding an MMU, then manages to rescue Sandra Bullock even after wasting all that propellant? Sandra Bullock seems to be missing her SAFER (a smaller MMU that would have let her at the very least stop spinning and start heading back), something I expected they would have added even if they didn't exist in real life!
They have moved the Hubble space telescope, the ISS and the Chinese Space station into a similar orbit, even the space shuttle can't get between the different space stations when in different orbits!
They 'hang' off the iss, they have stopped moving, then he 'lets go' and falls away? impossible as they are in free fall, once they stopped moving a tiny pull would have sent them back towards it...
Really this film needed a decent consultant to tweak it to feel real, as it was I didn't feel anyone was in peril it was too much of a fantasy.
Worth a watch, but only once..
