imagine thinking you made the quintessential imax space experience and less than a year later nolan bashes out interstellar I’d kill myself
Yes. Yet another five star rating for Gravity. Before I go on, the five stars are for the experience. I don't know how you rate films, but my rating is for a great deal based on the fact that I just walked out of the theatre having seen something I have never seen before. Gravity is Jurassic Park's dinosaurs. It is a technological marvel urged on by a director who is intent on discovering how far he can stretch the medium. Many have said it and I have to agree. This was made for IMAX and probably shouldn't be seen any other way.
What makes Gravity so great? It is the totality of the immersive experience, the relentless ruthlessness of…
Oh my God. This movie was fucking phenomenal. I was totally blown away. Like Sandra Bullock, I didn't want to let go.
Not only is Gravity by far the best movie of 2013, but it's also one of the best movies I've seen from the 2000s era. The visuals are surreal. Seriously if you don't see this in IMAX 3D you are doing yourself a huge injustice. Oh yeah and the special effects....WOW! From a visual/special effects standpoint Gravity is the best film. I've ever seen. Absolutely beautiful and breath-taking. It literally felt like I was in space.
The visuals and special effects aren't the only amazing things about this movie. The story, the execution, the performances, and everything in…
life is all there is.
mind-blowing to an absurd degree but frustratingly weighed down by convention. see it in 3D and on mute. really, for a movie that opens with some silly title cards about sound in space, the film's horrendous (mis)use of music is hard to forgive. if WB screened a silent version, i'd be there in a heartbeat. was convinced that complaints of sentimentality were overblown... until the last 20 minutes, when things go haywire, right through the rather laughable final shots. but as a tech demo that's sure to age poorly, this is some of the most astonishing spectacle i've ever seen. just kills me that its biggest problems could have been solved by *saving* money.
Gravity cannot be watched outside theatres. The technical brilliance of the film is fully apparent even on the small screen, but so is the flimsiness of the characters, the heavy-handed symbolism, and the terrible dialogue.
After reading reviews of Gravity on Letterboxd, it's plenty apparent to me that it's a visceral experience, fully involving viewers on every level. Watching it on a 42" screen was underwhelming, to say the least. Sandra Bullock and George Clooney in his wonderful cameo both transcended the thinness of their characters, however, and involved me fully in their struggle.
But there's still the fact that the dialogue is the more glaring weakness in Gravity. I can't help but compare the mindless noise in Gravity to…
