Changes the Meaning of a Movie Experience

Rating: 10/10 (7 October 2013)

This film truly takes you on a ride. Technology and exceptional filmmaking ingenuity have come together perfectly to not only portray the struggle of the characters as they battle to survive in outer space, but to give the audience a perspective that makes them feel completely immersed in an environment where they've never been before. Sandra Bullock and George Clooney put on remarkable performances that make you feel a sense of connectedness and empathy for each of the characters. However, what makes this movie truly exceptional is the perfectly sequenced and detailed effects of the CGI. Clearly the filmmakers spent a great deal of time and effort to perfect every detail, which goes a long way to give that audience an experience they've never had before. Whether you know a lot or very little about the physics of the universe, you will be amazed by the reality of space - making this movie one that will stay on your mind long after you leave the theater.
