I just got back from watching the film and to be honest I feel it is rather overrated. It is no doubt a visual marvel and will be a hit. However for me it just got kind of boring after a while and I didn't really engage with the tension. I thought Bullock's character was annoying and generic and George Clooney, while being likable, was playing George Clooney. I think it's a good film, but not 'film of the year' and far from the 'best space movie ever'. It's a feast for the eyes but nothing more. The physics were wrong in some parts of the movie, which annoyed me greatly, and Bullock is simply frustrating to watch and listen to. the movie quickly turns into her story and i fell asleep, her story was not that interesting and i did not care whether or not she died.
