Visually stunning but not exciting

Rating: Null/10 (10 June 2016)

I like this and I don't like this. The movie is visually gorgeous. I always loved the idea of being in space.
Two things I didn't like: (1) What is the purpose of having Clooney's character? He just dies near the beginning of the film. Yet I originally thought this movie was about Bullock and Clooney. I wondered if there was really no way for him to get back to the station? He traversed all the way from the shuttle! (2) I was expecting something more exciting and action-oriented and more two-people dialogue. I get it's stressful in its own sense she needs to figure out way to survive. But I was expecting something more than just floating from one space shuttle to another and listening to Bullock talking with herself.
