A treat for all the senses.

As I'm not an expert in any form of physics or aerospace engineering, I can't comment on how ridiculous the plot or plot holes may [ /may not] be. With suspension of disbelief and allowing yourself to accept the movie as realistic, it becomes an intense movie, especially in 3D. I especially appreciate the hard work that goes into creating a film with this level of CGI. The film is beautifully crafted with superb acting and life-like visuals. In 3D you get a better feel for the movie and the audience is transported to the empty vacuum of space with the cast. The movie does, however, require the dedicated attention of the audience at all times; Gravity avoids exposition and instead relies on visual imagery, usually in the form of text seen on dials or displays, to explain what is happening, usually these important details are only on screen for one or two seconds and are very easy to miss if the audience doesn't read them fast enough. This is made even harder in 3D as the text will often have some blur or minor distortion.
