Sandra Bullock: A One-Woman Show

Rating: 9/10 (12 November 2013)

I've been a fan of Sandra Bullock for years, but this is the first film in which she has really shown off her considerable acting talent.
The film is 90 minutes long and I would estimate that Ms. Bullock was alone for about 65-70 minutes of it, which is no mean feat.
My attention was held the whole time by her believable character, the wonderful effects, the slightly loopy physics and the sheer inventiveness of the CGI. And the 3D effects were simply marvellous.
At first I thought that the film might run out of steam simply because of the lack of other characters, but the fight for survival was so palpable, so engaging, that I simply didn't even realise that the film was a one-woman show until after I had walked out of the cinema.
If you see no other film this year, this is the one to see. And pay for 3D - it's worth every penny.
