Special effects never felt so real.

Rating: 6/10 (8 October 2013)

Let me start off: I didn't get to see the movie in 3D, devastating, I know, but I was still able to absorb the glistening and awe inspiring visuals even in classic 2D.
There are an abundance of films that are special effects orientated out there today, and quite a few use CGI without realizing that they are taking away depth and story away from the film, CGI and film always coincide with each other in balancing out story and effects.
This film however had no problem with that, everything from the subtle P.O.V shots of earth to objects colliding in this film seemed to vividly jaw dropping, from start to finish, every bit of the film consisted of CGI but yet it felt so organic I felt as if I was within the drama, weightlessly floating in space with only oxygen and a space suit. Space never felt so enthralling yet so isolated, and by the time it was over those 90 minutes felt more like a heartbeat.
I can't give any of the plot away because any giving of information other than the visuals of the movie would give away this compendious plot, that being said, it still works wonderfully with the CGI this whole movie essentially enshrouds itself in.
Well, if you haven't seen gravity yet, what are you waiting for? Its one of the best films of the space genre and is sure to be around at the Oscars for best special effects, I do recommend 3D for a more immersive experience though.
