You MUST see Gravity!

I saw a movie Gravity over the weekend and you must see it! Gravity tells the story of survival between astronauts Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) and Matt Kowalski (George Clooney) after their ship is destroyed by debris from a missile. The two are left to find a way home after Houston communications are knocked out. Gravity is a masterfully crafted and beautifully shot movie that will leave you gasping for air before the end credits roll.

The movie draws the audience in. It knows how to immerse viewers and keep them there for the duration of the film. The
direction is simply outstanding, with intensely long takes that force you to focus on the characters' need of survival.

The movie captures the audience members and subverts them with such an aesthetic craft. In a scene with Stone, she's about to give up on her survival, but hallucinates that Kowalski found his way back to her. It feels real, and we as an audience are so relieved to finally have someone else with us, only for it to be ripped away. It's a gut-wrenching scene that is entirely effective.

While obviously Gravity wasn't actually filmed in space, it could have fooled everyone. The CGI is stunning, and the cinematography will leave your jaw on the floor. The very first image of Gravity is the Earth from many miles up in space——it's silent, haunting and beautiful.

The only way to truly experience Gravity is to see it in IMAX 3D. Any other way and you're going to be cheating yourself. The action sequences in space are terrifying and will make you wonder why you ever wanted to be an astronaut as a child. One scene in particular you will literally be out of breath due to the sheer chaos and intensity of the events taking place.

Gravity is bolstered by terrific performance from both of its leads, but primarily Bullock who literally portrays every single emotion in a 90-minute film. When Ryan Stone is alone in the film (which is a good majority), the viewers are alone, and feel the emptiness and the silence (which is probably due to the phenomenal sound design as well). She gives a heart-wrenching performance that should not be
overlooked by the Academy come this award season.

You MUST see Gravity!!!
