Gravity [2013] // Unclassified / Sci-Fi(?)

This movie was intense. It's beautiful. I'm honestly not sure what to compare it to, because there really is nothing else like it. And that's a good thing. A really really good thing. This movie is hopefully the new paradigm of cinema and first-person story telling. We've all seen that Blair Quarantine-Field REC nonsense....but this...this is something special. This is 100% the opposite of that bullshit.

I can't even say that the story was lacking, because despite the fact that the story is so linear, so profoundly simple, it's perfect. It's poetic. It is visually mind blowing. I think I clocked 12 minutes into the film before the first 'camera cut'.

The film utilizing all the things we've hearing about for years. Long exposure, no-motion blur, hi-resolution pixels etc etc. It's a work of art and technological accomplishment that really puts other films to shame. They need to catch up or shut up. Looking at J.J & Star Wars 6.

The physics, or the computer algorithms or wizard animators that figured it out how objects in space would REALLY react were of the highest caliber. There was no sci-fi in the physics or realism...only Sci. This is the 2013 "Apollo 13" of cinema mixed with cutting edge technology and breath taking scenery and the same quality acting from Bullock and Clooney. This movie can only be described as suburb, revolutionary and breath taking and stunning. Literally. Although there were a few points where ...yeah...it's a stretch to think it's completely real, at no point did my brain say "That's not even possible. That's not even plausible..."
No, all my brain could say was "Wow...that's amazing..." followed closely by "holy shit" you actually feel like you can't breathe.

I'm glad to have the chance to just describe things like 'Long Sequence Cinematography' something my second favorite movie 'Children of Men' pioneered. This movie however takes the cake. The Director of Jason Bourne should be ashamed of himself with that choppy sequence nonsense. This film honestly feels like you're floating through space and you're right there beside (or inside the eyes of) the characters.

 I wish I could give a better review, but there isn't much to be said other than if you've ever loved space, wanted to go to space, or thought about what would happen if the Movie "The Core" was actually even remotely good after it's opening sequence...you will love this film. The music, the sound (or lack there of) is all super nerve racking.

THE TRAILER IS NOT THE MOVIE!! IT IS DIFFERENT!

Go on a quite night, be alone in the theater, see it on the biggest screen possible, and absolutely spend the extra $ on the 3D. This is coming from the broke college kid who can only afford movies because his friends run the theaters.

Generations to come will look back and say "This...this is the movie that started it" ...alright maybe Avatar, but that shit is on a different page.

Tl;dr

See this movie. Everyone. Everyone should see this movie. It is an accomplishment for man kind. Really.
