Wow are you sure you saw the same movie?
SLIGHT SPOiLER ALERT
The movie is at first a journey to get from 1 place to the other, but its also an emotional journey for Sandra Bullocks character. (If you don't know what emotional journey she has to face, you should watch the movie again).
If you're the director of the movie, you need to cast someone that can act with her face partially hidden most of the time by a space helmet, and her body hidden most of the time by her space suit. I'm no expert but I'm guessing this is really hard to do.
Maybe George Clooney phones it in, who knows. His character in Gravity is completely calm and cool but then again the filmmakers draw attention to this fact when he talks about how good looking he is. They also touch on the fact that his character is very experienced, while Sandra's character has only about 6 months experience.
Anyway, good acting from Clooney, GREAT acting from Bullock.
Plus there's the Alien-esq strip down scene. Wow she looks great.
