I Have A Really Bad Feeling About This Mission

Rating: 2/10 (26 June 2014)

At 90 minutes, I'd definitely say that Gravity (and all of its "been there/seen that" predictability) was about 30 minutes too long for its own good.
The following is a perfect example of a typical scene in Gravity.
A seemingly clueless Dr. Ryan Stone (played by a very butch-looking Sandra Bullock) finds herself, once again, floating around & around & around in zero gravity. Round & round & round she spins (where she stops, nobody knows). Gasping. Grunting. Groaning. Gasping. Grunting. Groaning. Spinning round & round & round. Saying "Houston, do you copy?" or "What do I do now?" over & over & over again.
This sort of scenario repeated itself so many times in the course of the story that I swear it took up a full 60 of Gravity's 90-minute running time. As you can well-imagine, this absurd, irksome repetitiveness got on this viewer's nerves, big-time.
About the only thing of any interest that Gravity brought to my attention was to constantly demonstrate to me just how utterly deficient and imperfect man's so-called "perfect" technological advances of today really are.
Even though Gravity didn't point this out, this movie did get me to wondering about how much of man's garbage is actually orbiting around this planet of ours at this very moment. Apparently, it's tons.
Without question, Gravity is ideal movie-fodder, meant to be played in fast-forward mode. This outer space adventure is a total nose-picker.
I can't believe that this over-rated, Sci-Fi dud was the winner of 7 Academy Awards. Like, are they crazy, or something?
And, speaking about George Clooney (as the whiskey swigging, veteran astronaut, Matt Kowalski), this jerk grated on my nerves like you wouldn't believe with his tiresome "I remember when" stories and his dim-witted one-liners.
So, if you, like me, have a really bad feeling about this movie, just remember, your feelings are probably right.
