I cannot figure out what all the hype is about this movie. My husband and I took in a double feature today, Gravity being one of them, and we both agreed that it left much to be desired.

Aside from the beautiful visual effects, the acting was mundane, the writing was insipid, the story was predictable. It was not 'edge of my seat' in the least.

I don't mean to insult people who 'loved' the movie or who think it was 'one of the best made' but really?!? And I don't think it's right to be condescending by asking if people who didn't like Gravity were ones who liked Transformers or Avatar. (never saw Transformers and Avatar was not much better than Gravity)

In my opinion, I don't think Gravity even compares to great movies such as Shawshank Redemption, The Green Mile, Slumdog Millionaire, The Usual Suspects, The Departed, ... just to name a few.

I should have gone with my gut, saved $30 and waited for the DVD release.
