Gravity

Rating: 8/10 (19 May 2019)

A short but energizing escape, Gravity is a powerful film even though it features only two characters and pretty much one setting with very little sound. Sandra Bullock delivers a dynamite of a performance that is worthy of her Academy Award nomination. The film is largely driven by Ryan's determination, desperation, will and sense of loss. Gravity is also perhaps one of, if not the most gorgeous space movie I have ever seen, it's use of color and just the overall cinematography is truly unforgettable. In the end, whether or not the character survives or how realistic the science is behind it doesn't matter a bit, as we have been taken through a hell of a ride.
