Someone I know said that Cuaron is the new Kubrik. And he is kind of right. This movie carries all the amazing cinematography, tension building, and character strength that Stanley Kubrick imprinted in his 2001, a Space Odyssey but adding the best possible special effects, sound effects and an amazing action plot. Plus Sandra Bullock is just AMAZING here.
A great space adventure
Incredible cinematography, the music is moving, and Sandra Bullock is incredible, as if we didnt know that already. Her acting makes this movie what it is.
Amazing movie!! Exciting all the way to the end.
The visual effects and music were great. Felt like you were in space. 3D experience was awesome. Loved Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in this.
Excellent photography and atmosphere. How beautifully this film makes us feel what it feels and looks like in outer space. The story line could have been a little more fleshed out, but bullock in particular was terrific , a well cast A list star. Those who are techies will love it, as will all those armchair astronauts and sci fi buffs. The movie is a little short at 100 minutes, I thought.
A great space flick
Great effects but the story line wasn't totally believable.
There was no story. It was just Sandra in undies trying to get back to earth. I also have to say, the scenery & music were incredible. There was just no story
Great cinematography that really captures the sense of being in outer space. Breath-taking views. The plot is secondary.
