I can't believe this movie has received good reviews...

Rating: 4/10 (20 October 2013)

Sure, I went in with high expectations based on the things I'd heard about this film, so perhaps it was never going to measure up. But I hated it! It was SO boring. I kept waiting for the action to ramp up but it never did. A few times I found myself yawning and my mind wandering. Sandra Bullock played her usual character (annoying, whiny little wimp) which I also found irritating. Clooney was good though. The great space visuals and the Clooney factor were the only good things about this film. Had they been absent I think I would have given it a 1 out of 10. I saw the film in 2D, but doubt seeing it in 3D would have increased my rating.
