Terrible

Rating: 1/10 (21 March 2016)

I, admittedly, do not have the patience of Job, but I did stick this one out to the end. It was very painful. I am a big fan of Bullock and a lesser one of Clooney (although, I enjoy knowing that I can usually expect a pretty good performance from him) but still a fan. Right from the start, I knew I was going to be challenged by the non-stop, hyperventilating of Sandra. I have a Belgian Malinois that came with a hereditary, hyperventilation defect. She, like Sandra in this movie, pants like she has just ran a marathon, all the time. The difference here being that the dog can't help it. Then there's the action part of the film. There were only two actions. For the whole movie. Get to the space station and get back to earth. So, for an hour and a half, we had to listen to Sandra hyperventilate. The script was "lightly" peppered with a smidgen of concern, panic and introspective release. But that was it. Awful and well beneath the talents of both of these great actors.
