It’s a surprise to Hollywood, in that they were expecting the younger audience to fill the seats...................

I saw it and didn’t like it.

The special effects were good.. but the plot was bad lol.

Sandra Bullock didn’t carry the movie and she was pretty much the only character besides George Clooney

“Gravity” was truly an eye-popping, edge-of-your-seat thriller. Mrs. Thorne said she needed a massage when the film was over since her every muscle had been tense for the entire show.

Not interested in seeing it. It’s like “open waters” in space.

I don’t like Clooney but the space clips from the movie did look pretty great

Yup. . .like younger audiences know what the true mission of space exploration is/was. Today they are told that having as its number one goal is muslim outreach.

At least us old guys remember the glory days of reaching for the stars.

I saw this and it was great.

This was the type of movie that 3D was made for. Instead of being just a stupid gimmick the 3D really enhanced it. Without the 3D on TV this movie probably will be kind of on the boring and cliché side.

This was the 1st movie I saw at the theater since Phantom Menace. It was worth it.

I would hate to spend ten bucks only to find out Clooney or Bullock don’t wind up popping like a zit or burning up re-enetring the atmosphere...
