Can barely even call it a "movie"

Rating: 1/10 (24 June 2015)

If I had a list of the worst movies I've ever seen, I don't even know if Gravity would be on it, because I don't know if I can call it a movie. Ignoring the particulars though, this is easily the worst film I have ever seen and I highly encourage others to not see it. Basically this is what it seemed like happened in the process of creating this film: Alfonso Cuaron got a bunch of college age interns and said "Hey animate me a bunch of stuff floating in space." So they animated him 2 hours worth of stuff floating in a space and also a girl hitting the stuff, and submitted it. Cuaron said "This is great, let's make it a movie." This is probably the point where script and screenplay writers approached him and said "Ok, we'll make the screenplay" and he said "No. No screenplay. Just release it as it is." I have a hard time believing people didn't question him and ask whether or not he wanted a story in his movie. Because basically Gravity has no story. You could argue and say "The story is she's trying to make it home!" But I mean that's literally it! In any other good movie you'll have tons of conflicts between the more than 2 characters, sub plots, or at least a main plot that is slightly more in depth than "She's trying to make it home." There is nothing to this movie. It is 2 hours of stuff floating in space, and that's all. It also completely lacks any character development whatsoever, which you think wouldn't be so hard to do when you only have 2 characters. I never felt attached or sympathetic for either of the characters, I just simply didn't care about what was going on. This movie is incredibly boring. It's Sandra Bullock at a station. Then she goes to another one. Then another one. And another one. Then she crashes on Earth. Stands up, and credits roll. It almost seems to me like this movie was a joke, a mock to all other movies. And don't even get me started on George Clooney's death. I mean you've got 2 characters, if you're gonna make one of them die, can't you actually make it in a way that's physically possible? If you've seen the movie, you know what I'm talking about, Clooney's death makes no sense. Why didn't Sandra Bullock just pull on the cord that was connecting them, give it a little tug, and he would drift back to her. it makes no physical sense why he continued drifting away from her after the cord became taut. You can't tell me there wasn't a single person on the entire set that said "Wait, this is impossible..." For goodness sakes it's not even that hard of a thing to change, just make some debris come hit him in the face, or make the cord get detached somehow and he drifts away all alone. It's like Cuaron tried to make it impossible, and it's just laughable. Everything in the movie is laughable. The story is non existent, the character development is non existent, the physics don't even make sense, and the whole experience is just a joke.
And it won 7 Oscars!!
