Just came back from watching Gravity
Man oh man.
SPOILERS - DON'T READ IF YOU HAVEN'T SEEN IT YET
Seriously, you guys (and just about 90% of people, from what I've read) thought this was a great movie?
The special effects. Yes, they are well done, I guess, though I'm not a big special effects guy to start with. I'm more interested in a good plot.
I have no idea what the fucking plot was.
Can a movie be good if it is mostly just monologues? The Sandra Bullock character seemed to have a hell of a lot of bad luck, it was just her surviving one unbelievable disaster after another. When you really think about it, it's just the same old stupid movie. Is this what is supposed to be a "strong female character"? The part about her losing her daughter in kindergarten or some shit... I mean, man, how fucking trite can you get? Pointless really.
Okay, it's science fiction, I suppose, so to get into the accuracies and whatnot sounds ridiculous. But some stuff really stands out. I'm not sure, but I would think that after breathing 5 minutes of carbon dioxide you would be dead. Second, you would think NASA would not send such a hysterical bitch on a space mission, due to her delicate mental state. Oh, and the fire extinguisher part, laughable. And Russia firing missiles to destroy their own satellite? Does that sounds even remotely possible? Blame it all on the Russians LOL.
The whole time I was expecting something interesting to happen. Halfway through the movie I could tell it was never going to. This was it. I have a whole movie of Sandra Bullock overcoming impossible situations, only to land safely on a beach and look triumphantly up at the sky. Yes, she made it!
Is that the "other" story, as some have put it? Never give up, keep on fighting, it's not over until it's over, survival is the ultimate goal, fight for your life until the last breath, overcome adversity, or something? Seriously, isn't that "message" a bit worn out? I mean, we've seen it in hundreds of movies already. Or is it, as I have recently read, "through the adversity, a human reborns" shown in the drowning scene at the end and also the fetus scene. Ugh... even if that is what they were going for, the plot and dialogue do not support these so-called messages. If anything, they take away from them.
Boring. Predictable. Unimpressive. Disappointing. Trite... and I forgetting anything? What a piece of crap. I will admit, I feel very alienated when I watch movies these days. It's seems garbage gets passed as art and people eat it up with two hands. I'm just not impressed with any of the shit that most people consider great. So before you bash me for not liking this, I know I am in the minority. Critics are RAVING about this movie, but for the life of me I don't understand why.
If you love special effects, if you are a CGI geek, then this movies is perfect for you.
