The visual effects of the movie Gravity are absolutely stunning. Through 3D and IMAX, the breathtaking view of the earth and space is supremely beautiful. The reflection from the helmet seems frighteningly real. When they are hit by debris, everything was crushing apart and Ryan was thrown out alone, tumbling. The set was enormously impressive.

Many people, women specially, don't like this movie because the plot is rather out-of-date. Only two active characters in the movie, and most of time it is only Ryan Stone who is playing. It doesn't make sense that only two of them outside the spaceship survived whereas the all crew inside died from the debris-attack. And it is more ridiculous that every time Ryan operates the spacecraft, the Russian space station or Chinese space station, evil things always happen. It seems that dysfunctions of facilities were the only way to spin the movie out. The only funny part is Ryan was propelled with a fire extinguisher, which reminds me of Wall-E, which has a similar plot. Likely, in the Wall-E, the earth is surrounded by the cloud of the debris, which becomes a catastrophe in the movie Gravity. When Dennis Tito became the first space tourist in 2001, a new era began. Nowadays it seems that everyone, even students at middle school can send something into the space, which at last will turn into the debris floating about. In fact the environment of outer space is easily destroyed; in this movie, an unintentional explosion of a Russian satellite killed all spacecraft one after another. Maybe it is time to consider protecting outer space, not just our own immediate environment.
