(in the order I saw them)
*My personal opinions* on any movie that I have watched.

Gravity
2013 - 1/5
I’m not sure I want to get into an in-depth review with this movie. I don’t know what to make of it to be honest. All I know is that I’m going to be in the minority with regards to where I stand when it comes to this movie.
As for the visual effects… well… I didn’t see this in theaters… I’m going to leave it at that… so no further comments on that!
I couldn’t really figure out exactly what the story was from the trailer, but from review I saw, it seems like a lot of it would be Sandra Bullock (as Dr. Ryan Stone) would be alone in outer space. I couldn’t help but think of the Disney movie Wall-e, in which the first half barley had any dialogue. It worked for an animated, so I was curious as to whether or not this movie would be similar and if it could pull it off as a non-animated movie. Obviously the script wouldn’t be a major part of this film, so it would have to be all story driven.
Ugh. This is the part I don’t really want to get into: the plot. I’m just saying I couldn’t get into it. I really think that the only reason I didn’t stop watching it was because I really wanted to know how it ends. But overall, I couldn’t buy into it. I’m happy this movie was only 80 minutes.
I did think that Clooney and Bullock were paired together very well. That was one thing that worked for me in the movie. Bullocks short hair aside, I thought both their looks, voices, everything else were very fitting for their characters. I had no problems with the actors and the characters they portrayed.
I was trying to think of a numerical value to give this movie that I felt comfortable with. Even when I picked a random number between 0-5, I couldn’t justify giving it any higher than a 1… and that’s only because I think that Bullock (and Clooney) did a good job.
