Sandra gets closure

Rating: 7/10 (7 December 2013)

#Gravity will pull the audience to the cinemas because of it's potential to be an amazing film. The storyline itself is enough and to be fair I don't think I've seen a film when a major disaster happens which shatters a life and leaves the protagonist searching for an answer, oh wait...
******************SPOILER ALERT******************* I did walk and say, so she went to space for closure, cos that's what it felt like. ******************SPOILER OVER*******************
OK sarcasm aside it is an age old story written very well. Sorry bone of contention here. I have major issues with Sandra Bullocks acting and to be honest this really didn't help her cause. There are very tense scenes which don't really last too long and then you spend the rest of the film watching the visuals.
*******************SPOILER ALERT****************** A Scene where Sandra Bullock is crying, but amazingly her face shows no emotion, that's gotta be an acting skill right? ******************SPOILER OVER*******************
OK, so Bullock plays lead Ryan Stone, yes I know a blokes name. I always knew there was something mannish about her... George Clooney plays the cavalier Matt Kowalski and then that's about it for cast, which is probably a good thing cos I swear the $100 million dollars the film cost to make probably went on the visuals.
Which are well done. Although there was a point where you could blatantly see the CGI, which wasn't a big issue, but slightly detracted from the effect of the scene. I had a few issues with stuff like the colour of the sun. In Space it's white, not yellow like we know it to be on Earth, this is because of the atmosphere changing it's colour, you still reading? Sorry went into Geek mode. Anyhoo, if you aren't an avid reader of #NewScientist, you'll probably be quite happy with the resulting visuals that are provided.
Script is well done. Matt Kowalski: "Half of North America just lost their Facebook." or Dr. Ryan Stone: My name's not "May Day." Nice little one liners that got the audience tittering. Is that what you really want from a film like this? 25% of the script is well thought out.
Music composed and provided by British composer Steven Price. It really is amazing the why it hits all the right spots throughout the film.
7/10 for the biggest space film to date, apparently. Stunning visuals though so it is worth the big screen experience, your 50 inch 3D HDTV isn't gonna cut it. Sorry to edit, but in addition I'd like to say please watch this movie to see why I didn't like the geek stuff. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5zOP23fJVTI Taken from facebook.com/MavrosMovie Reviews
