Well done!!!!

Rating: 10/10 (5 October 2015)

I wondered whether this movie would be able to live up to the hype and I'm pleased to say it sure did from my point of view.
I think Matt Damon was perfect as the lead in this sci-fi/sci-fact gem. I did find the story very believable for the most part.
I have some minor concerns over the casting of some roles - in particular Sean Bean. If you need a Brit accent, you can find someone with much better acting skills (and accent too!!!). But as he's in a smaller role, it doesn't detract from the good points of this movie.
It appears to me that a lot of thought went into the geographical locations and probably some input from NASA to give the movie authenticity.
I saw the movie in 3D and was pleased with the effects. If you enjoyed Gravity, I think you will enjoy this even more. It's a long movie, but well worth sitting through. Personally I really enjoyed the whole concept and the well crafted story. The pace was good. It worked for me.
I feel sure this will get a few nominations in the Oscars - I'd vote for Matt Damon as Best Actor.
