No, Wicked lovers. This is about "Gravity". Saw this on Saturday morning and was blown away!! Most amazing 3D movie I've seen. Did anyone else get to see this?

It looks scary to me. But on the bright side I have read that a high fat high protein breakfast is ideal for your body's glycemic index. That means more bacon for me.

I saw it on Friday. It is an AWESOME special effects movie - the 3-D work is amazing. Unbelievable, in fact. Sandra Bullock is a shoe-in for an Academy Award nomination.

But, I'm not sure that the story holds up as well as the special effects. I had to suspend all plausibility because the story is just too "coincidental". I won't give away any of the details to show what I mean, but I'll be curious what others think. There is sure to be a lot of discussion about this film.

Bottom line - GO SEE THIS MOVIE! See it in 3D and sit as close as you can stand. This movie is so worth the ride...I plan to go see it again just to see all the special effects I missed the first time.

Basically if NASA had this happen to a space shuttle crew there would be no saving them. You would hear that the shuttle was destroyed.

I don't think this is really a scary movie. More of a suspenseful, intense movie. I had sweaty palms for large portions of the film, and was dodging 3D debris at times.

Agree, MMM: SB was fantastic! I did wonder if the director was channeling Barbarelle in one scene laugh

Sort of.

No space sharks, but that totally would have made it better. laugh

We only have one IMAX left in the state that shows feature-length films, that disappoints me (even if I don't think about the fact that I ran the one here in town that got shut down frown ). If I were to see this movie, that is how I'd choose to see it.

But I don't have any interest in seeing it, unless the above mentioned space sharks get added.

Haha, no thanks. You buy it, and I'll operate if for you. How about that? It was a far more enjoyable job than this one is, even if it meant having to occasionally help clean up after people with motion-sickness issues, because your staff was a bunch of wusses. smirk
