Gravity

Rarely does a film come along like "Gravity."  It's not so much a movie as it is an experience.  It's as visceral and intense as any movie to grace the silver screen and makes an in print on your mind that lasts long after you've left the theater.  It's part special effects film, part thriller and part allegory of overcoming life's trials.  Sandra Bullock gives the best performance of her career as the lead character who's personal story and fight to survive is really the heart of the film.  Her character's back story could have received more attention early on however, as the film thrusts you into the action from the very beginning without much of a first act to establish a connection with the audience.  That connection is made as the story progresses though and it makes for a riveting movie experience.  This is one of the most jaw-dropping and intense films ever made and it's unquestionably one of the best films of the year.  See it on the biggest screen you can find!
