Gravity. What a film.
If ever I wanted confirmation that the cinema is THE place to see brilliant, innovative ,entertaining work then this movie was it. From start to finish it absolutely gripped me.
The sheer beauty of the visuals. The astonishing depth to the 3D. The brilliant backing soundtrack that built the tension so superbly. The outstanding integration of live action elements and effects, they were flawless in a way I never thought I would see. I know people in the industry were impressed but it really did warrant the accolades
And then there was Sandra Bullock. I thought her performance ,hovering between cool, detached professional and the still grieving mother, was perfectly balanced. Watching her recover her strength in the light of that cabin was one of the most beautiful moments I’ve ever seen on screen, as I have to admit, was she. I was absolutely engrossed in her battle for survival throughout.
The best film I’ve seen for at least a couple of years.Absolutely Amazing.
