Pointless story and sometimes just silly

Rating: 2/10 (15 March 2014)

If you only want good effects, specially on 3D, you will like it.
If you care about story and realism, forget it.
Since was a space movie I was expecting some professionalism. Not necessarily like Apollo 13, but at least a little. Oh boy I was wrong. From beginning you can tell this is going to be bad. I mean, is like I am not watching real astronauts. For example in the beginning you see one of the main characters flying around wasting fuel just doing pointless spins around the ship. Really? Just go around over and over while talking like they are in high school? When they suppose to be doing a serious mission.
Was too obvious from beginning that was going to be another effect parade, and story just was an excuse to show it. They try to put the emotional parts, but for me they fail. Sad parts don't make it a good story.
Maybe what I hate the most was George Clooney character. I don't know if is Clooney fault or writer fault, but that character was just too cocky. Too "not-real-astronaut-like". I don't know how to explain. Is a space clown, but with hero write all over it to try to make you like him.
Surrealism is very common on Hollywood. Sometimes we forgive some of that for the entertainment or for a good story. But this time don't work at all.
Good effects is not enough to make a good movie!
Worst movie? No. Visual effects was nice and at least that part I did enjoy. Gets old after a while, though. That is where the "good" story should get in. It never comes on Gravity.
After a while I counted the minutes to the end.
Summary: pointless, boring, good visual effects, music was good enough.
