Armaggedon inside a 2001 box

Rating: 2/10 (14 December 2014)

2 out of 10. Why such a low score? Is it that bad? Yes and no. One of the reasons I scored it 2, is that Gravity pretends to be something it is not.
Gravity pretends to be a realistic thriller in space, like 2001, and emotive drama, but in reality it is nothing but a disaster movie like Armaggedon or Space Cowboys (Without the funny part).
But there are also other reasons to the score: The plot is really bad, plain and predictable (Not too good for a thriller), and at some points stupid (ie. when Clooney "sacrifices" when it was clearly unnecessary).
The acting is mediocre, being very near to melodrama at some stages. And the "heroine" (Sandra Bullock), survives to the impossible (The Hollywood's syndrome of "must have a happy ending, no matter how").
The film is void as the space where it happens OK, I admit visuals are superb. That's why I scored it 2 instead of 1.
