Gravity proves why someone has to go to the theater and experience a film and not just watch it...

Rating: 9/10 (30 October 2013)

Alfonso Cuarón has done it again... We have seen thrills in water, we have experienced chills in snow and air.. Now you will be at the edge of your seat when you see Sandra Bullock drifting in space.. Gravity is a movie about Matt Kowalski (George Clooney) and Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock)... One is an astronaut and the other an engineer working for NASA.. The excitement starts right from the word go where we see Matt spacewalking...Soon the Hubble Space Telescope, Mission Control in Houston confirms that Space debris from a Russian satellite has caused a chain reaction of destruction and they were instructed to abort the mission...The debris struck them before they could take any action killing all the crew members except Matt and Ryan.. Ryan was drifting in the space when Matt rescued her and tethered her to him so that they can move together...While they were moving the oxygen level of Ryan was decreasing..They planned to go the ISS (International Space Station).. In the way we get to know that Ryan's daughter died in an accident and Matt motivating her that they would survive..As they approached ISS they see that the crew has already left it with the Soyuz..Matt suggests that they could use the remaining Soyuz to go to the Chinese space station and use their Soyuz to go back to Earth.. While they were approaching the ISS the debris storm strikes again where Matt had to sacrifice himself to save Ryan... Ryan goes to the Chinese station after a lot of hick ups and manages to survive and return back to Earth.. As the movie progresses the excitement increases.. Brilliantly shot movie with a power packed performance by Sandra Bullock..Great camera work to show incredible pictures of earth at night and the sunrise.. Alfonso Cuarón's direction has proved gold in the past..He has shown the ultimate road trip(Y tu mama tambien), the fantasy world of Harry Potter (Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban) and a brilliant science fiction (Children of Men).. Don't watch this movie in DVD or download it.. Go to a theater, get a 3D glass and experience space.. Where 2001: A Space Odyssey talked about evolution... I think Stanley Kubrick had the power to see the future and he saw Gravity coming...
