Crisp 2D High Definition would have been nice

Rating: 7/10 (18 November 2013)

I don't know if this movie is being shown in 2D as well as 3D, but I found the picture to be dark and fuzzy. I kept wanting to remove the glasses in order to be able to see more clearly but, of course, that doesn't work.
Aside from having to suspend disbelief in several places, it was entertaining enough - but just enough. Yes, the special effects were good. But why did it have to have the usual element of schmaltz required by Hollywood films? If Ryan had to have a psych evaluation prior to qualifying as an astronaut, I think she would have been rejected. Who wants a potential suicide case in space?
I was looking forward to this (I don't visit the cinema much these days) but I have to say it didn't excite me. It wasn't a revelation. It was a good film, but that's all. So 7/10 from me, which basically means I liked it but have no desire to see it again.
