Gravity Has Emotional Pull

Rating: 9/10 (9 September 2013)

I wasn't expecting much from the premise. I couldn't imagine how they could make this an interesting film. It was much more than interesting. It was as if I became a part of the film. I felt visually disoriented as if in outer-space. I held my breath and it became irregular along with the film's intensity. I got to know the characters and cared about them. Bullock's performance is Oscar-worthy as she carries the film. Clooney's role is decidedly smaller, but just as important as he brings calmness as well as levity to the film. The cinematography is amazing, especially in 3D.
"Gravity" is a spellbinding and beautiful movie as two people encounter dire circumstances one after the other. Survival is the name of the game, but the inner strength is what shines for these characters. Wonderfully written and visually gripping to bring the utmost intensity to a story filled with anxiety and stress.
This is a film to see!
