What's the plot of Full Metal Jacket? I've seen it about 10 times, and there's no discernible plot. It's a series of vignettes about the hell of war -- and its considered one of the greatest films ever.

Astronaut crew headed by Bruce Willis needs to land a shuttle on an asteroid and plant a nuke inside to blow it apart before it strikes Earth. That's a plot.

Actually, Gravity does have a plot. Newbie astronaut has to find a way back to Earth. Does it need to be more complex to be considered worthy of a movie?
