Fun-tasticly Out of The World

Rating: 10/10 (20 October 2013)

After seeing that stupid movie, 'The Heat', and witnessing Sandra Bullock's sad performance, I had to see this movie and just verbally destroy it. I mean come on. After, 'The Heat', I kind of figured Ms. Bullock had lost 'it' forever – you know, she left us – it was time for her to leave – quit – go bye-bye. Well allow me to eat my words. Sandra not only has, 'it', back – but she has 'IT' back in a big way. What an awesome performance. She is now center-stage on my mantle of idolsSandra is the 'Queen of the Screen', 'The Princess Performer' and 'The Matron of Movies.' I humbly apologize for my snide comments about her previous flick, we all make mistakes. 'Gravity', what can I say? It is an eyeful, a masterpiece. This woman can act, and what a captivating performance. I usually am not a big fan when stars play second fiddle to CGI and special effects. Films like that usually never enhance one's talent but bolster the cast-members' weaknesses, so I try to avoid that kind of visual-vomit. But in this movie, the strength of Ms. Bullock's talents easily overcame CGI and special effect. This movie was all about her character. Granted, some George Clooney guy was there – eh – he died. Her performance allowed a lot of character insight and inner strength to come to the surface. Her struggle with solitude educated her in letting go, moving on and rejoining the human race. OH – and did I see anything spiritual or religion related – oh for crying out loud – this is Hollywood. I am glad they did not go near that topic - the movie would have been a major gag. This was strictly entertainment (kind of what Hollywood is supposed to do.) Was this her best movie? No way. Was this one of her best? Yes. Fantastic movie and I do highly recommend it. I will avoid all sequels to 'The Heat', but I will watch everything else.
