Hagrid P Apr 23, 2019 The emotion really wasn't there, but everything else within it was intense. The directing by Alfonso Cuaron couldn't have been done any better. The visuals couldn't have been anymore gorgeous and realistic. All of that comes with a solid neutral script, lots of suspenseful atmosphere, and a strong message on not giving up when all seems lost. How could people call is overrated and boring. It was not a pitch perfect masterpiece, but it is something special. See more

Poe M Apr 7, 2019 An excellent piece of acting and storytelling packed into a relatively short film; I didn't think big name action movie actors such as Sandra Bullock and George Clooney would be able to pull off a sci-fi but they sure did. The visuals are excellent. The scientific elements, like the scenes involving the Russian escape shuttle, should appeal to people who enjoy space travel and sci-fi. See more

Apr 5, 2019 Worst movie i ever watched. So bad.

Harry R Mar 26, 2019 Strengths: There arenï¿ 1/2(TM)t too many directors out there better than Alfonso Cuaron. He absolutely excels here in terms of crafting tense moments. There were times in this movie where I was seriously terrified at what was happening to our protagonist. She was thrown into harrowing situations and when you really think about what she goes through, itï¿ 1/2(TM)s frightening. Cuaron makes sure it comes across like that on screen. It helps that this is visually stunning. Everything we see looks breathtaking and so vast. Some of the camera shots are incredible. Seriously, this was absolutely the right choice to win Best Cinematography at the Academy Awards. For something like this to work, the acting has to also be on point. Sandra Bullock (Dr. Ryan Stone) is outstanding. Itï¿ 1/2(TM)s some of the best work of her career, right up there with The Blind Side. George Clooney (Lt. Matt Kowalski) is also fantastic and they play well off each other. Itï¿ 1/2(TM)s some natural chemistry that makes some of their more generic conversations all the more entertaining. I lastly want to credit the score. It really helps set the tone for the movie, yet is never overdone and doesnï¿ 1/2(TM)t overshadow things. Weaknesses: I wasnï¿ 1/2(TM)t too big on the scene where Stone hallucinates and sees Kowalski. It feels kind of cheap and cheesy. I get that she needs her moment where sheï¿ 1/2(TM)s at her lowest, but I think there were better ways to get there. For her to just see him and instantly have the answer on how to get back to Earth feels kind of lame. Though I donï¿ 1/2(TM)t know much about traveling and surviving in space, there are more than a few moments in this that feel far-fetched. Overall: With fantastic work from the two lead actors and the director, it is almost impossible for this not to be great. It has a few issues, but this was worth all the hype it got when it originally came out. See more

Mar 14, 2019 Alfonso Cuarón's style can be noticed a mile away from this movie and I do not complain! This movie is a piece of art. The long scenes, the suspense, the sound (or the lack of),... Needless to say I adored this movie. It emerged me in a state of mind I can't even process or explain. See more

Mar 7, 2019 It's a cool movie if I shut off that annoying part of my brain that keeps yelling at me that the whole concept for this disaster in space is stupid. Kessler Syndrome doesn't work this way. Movie's okay I guess See more
