Gravity (film)
So I went to watch Gravity in the cinemas yesterday~
The thoughts of an audience member.
The film stars Sandra Bullock and George Clooney and one other guy. The three people are all the acting faces of the film, and around 2/3 of the movie only has Sandra Bullock. But fear not! You can stare at the bloody amazing cinematography. Click to go to wiki.
What I loved about the movie was how realistic it portrayed space. Both the beauty and horrors of space were all conveyed so well that I really felt like I was in space, weird as that sounded. I kept joking to my friends that our hearts probably pounded faster than the people next door watching Insidious hahaha. My heart really pounded throughout the movie. I thought that Ryan (Bullock) was gonna die all the time even though I know that it's logically impossible, (spoiler) her being the only human left.
Sadly, I did not watch the movie in 3D but I very highly recommend it because the scenery is so beautifully made.
After the movie, my friends and I couldn't walk properly hahaha because it really felt like we were in space (I know I keep saying this, but it's true!) and gravity was unfamiliar.
-SPOILERS-
There was a scene where Ryan was prepared to die by draining all of her oxygen in the Chinese escape pod(?) thing, and suddenly Matt (Clooney) showed up at the door and was trying to open the damn door that leads to a vacuum even though Ryan didn't have her helmet on! I thought her head was going to explode!
If you think about it, space is nothing. It's a vacuum and the difference in pressure of our bodies and space will cause space to 'suck' out all of our organs and blood through whichever open we have, like our mouths and eye sockets and pores.... (Haha, ok not true. :p)
The movie is PG13 though, so they didn't show that hahaha.
Fun space facts:
