With all the hype this movie is getting I was expecting a much better movie with a better script and sorry to say, better acting. Sandra Bullock was just "average." The special effects were outstanding but a script should contain more than gasping and screaming. Bullock is being talked about for an Oscar but those of you who have this thought should really go see Blue Jasmine with Kate Blanchett. George Clooney should be considered an "extra" in the movie who just delivers one-liners but nothing meaningful. I would imagine this movie was very low budget because everything centers around special effects versus a story line and drama.
