Gravity is a perfect example for huge budget films and gadgets, delivered by lack of talent. First of all, this movie brings nothing new or impressive. I would like to say that the visuals were amazing and ground breaking as the film premise, but unfortunately there is nothing really new here. The scenery was indeed beautiful, but so was Space Odyssey which was made about 50 years ago. The experience of staying alone in space was nothing near the claustrophobic tension of Alien.

Then, there's the script, or should I say the lack of... The dialogues were flat and full of clichés, and the sound was a cluster of mumbles of rubbish between the astronauts and their radio. It is very obvious that the film makers relied mostly on visuals with this one. Unfortunately the camera work was not brilliant at all, apart for some parts which were not bad, but it was mostly nauseating. They even tried to do the "fetus" shot with Bullock floating in fetus position, but that was too forced to be creative. That was done just before Sigourney...sorry, Bullock, started removing her clothes and started floating around in her underwear, because the film was not clichéd enough until then.

And the highlight - the cast. A huge budget film with a high caliber actors, and what do we get? Clooney's acting was stale and uninspiring. It seems as though his mind was in what's for dinner later, rather than his struggles in space. Bullock was just as much of a catastrophe. It is hard to separate the bad acting from the bad script, but watching her floating around in space without any supporting cast, was painful.

All in all, this movie is like slow torture. It's only saving points were decent soundtrack, occasional moments of thrill, and the hope that it will all be over in an hour.
