Relying on CGI and breath taking shots doesn't cut it for me. Sorry. Felt nothing for George Clooneys character and very little for Sandra Bullocks character (Mission specialist Dr Ryan Stone) who's first space mission turns spectacularly disastrous. Although the cinematic sequence WERE breath taking I didn't have the pleasure of watching this in 3D or at an IMAX and couldn't help thinking how much I was missing out on visually. That said, visuals aren't the be all and end all to a great movie.

Gravity is one of those films that should rely on facts and reality but was too far fetched to be enjoyed. I felt this film was comparable to Redfords 'All is lost'.

Nice touch by having Ed Harris voicing mission control. (see Apollo 13)
