It's a great film...not as good as everyone says but great nonetheless. My 3rd fave this year behind Movie 43 and Captain Phillipz

How did I miss this thread?

I have to disagree with you, on Gravity and on your estimation of film critics.

Gravity is one of the best movies of the year. Bullock gives the performance of her life, the direction by Cuaron is masterful -- he manages to balance grand ideas and vistas with smaller, intimate moments -- and the movie's conception and vision of space is the best since 2001: A Space Odyssey.

Now, the film critics, who are often dismissed as snobbish and out of touch with the whims of he general public. Well, like it or not, that's their job. They exist to educate and inform popular opinion, not reflect it. The best critics have studied and watched movies from all genres, from all eras, from all regions of the world. They have made it their job to study the art and design of movies. They simply know better.



Totally disagree. Gravity was close to a masterpiece! Incredible film...kept me on the edge of my seat the whole time.

Most importantly it was a big screen experience...something that would be of a lower quality just on a computer screen. Not many films give that experience nowadays!



All hail the KING, Andrespetmonkey

I enjoyed it, though I probably wouldn't want to watch it again. It is intense though.

Even though I'm sure parts of it are unrealistic, watching it in 3D on a massive screen is likely the closest many people will get to experience the sensation of being in outer space. And for that alone IMO the movie was well worth the $8-$12 price of admission (really, do you need to see the 800th superhero movie? Try something different).

I will also say I think it's the most impressive use of 3D I've ever seen in a movie (suck it Avatar). It's just one of those film's that was made to be enjoyed on the big screen. 



I liked it but I actually fell asleep towards the end. It was a bit monotonous. I agree critics can be stupid sometimes, rotten tomatoes is a better assessment for me on movies than Metacritic.



Gravity is awesome, definitely my movie of the year. Probably one of the best movies i've ever seen.
