ゼロ・グラビティ

Great story, great cast and performances, great direction, FX, photography, care for the details, OST and editing.

Alfonso Cuarón is a real titan and Sandra Bullock goes for the Oscar.

It is not a 10 because at some point the chain of events goes further that it should.

There is no doubt that this is a very pleasing movie from a purely visual point of view. This is probably a movie that would benefit from being watched in a good theater with its grandiose scenery.

However, I have to say that I found the rest of the movie somewhat mediocre. The part that I felt dragged down the movie the most is that Dr. Ryan is behaving rather clumsily and amateurish first being real slow in obeying the order to evacuate and then floating around huffing and puffing, talking a lot when she should really conserve oxygen. Did they not give her the basic course before letting her up in space? I also found it soooo Hollywood that she was able to get onto the Chinese space station and seconds later it starts to descend into the atmosphere. In general I felt that the script writer was not really very technically knowledgeable.

Overlooking these, unfortunately all too often occurring issues, the movie is fairly okay as a whole. Obviously I cannot agree with the glowing all-star ratings that some people have been giving it but it is far from the single star trashing that other people have been giving it. Technically it was very good with nice special effects. Bullock performed as well as can be expected with the script she was given. Clooney felt a bit out-of-place as a skilled astronaut to me but then he was not really in the movie that much.

To me it was a fairly enjoyable popcorn movie.

**A cinematography masterclass!**

The cinematography of this movie is a breathtaking feat, unlike anything I have ever seen! The commitment to realism influenced every decision throwing the audience into the intensity of every moment. An enthralling ride from beginning to end with overwhelming effects and masterful storytelling that makes you feel every second. This movie absolutely earned its place on the list of “1001 Movies to See Before You Die.”

Gravity is an epic thrill ride that starts and never ends. I have not felt continued tension like this film in some time. The entire movie is so isolated and desperate, it is incredibly immersive. It had me on the edge of my seat the entire time. The script is a bit rough at times, a large portion of the dialogue does not seem realistic and can come off as corny sometimes, especially with George Clooney's character. Overall, it is short, face paced, and thrilling and I would highly recommend.

Score: 82%
Verdict: Great

Sandra Bullock's acting prowess is truly remarkable. Whether she's in a hit or a miss, her performances are always worth watching multiple times. Even in her less successful films, she brings something special to the screen that keeps you captivated.

This particular movie was a rollercoaster of excitement, struggles, and emotions. It had me on the edge of my seat, eagerly anticipating what would happen next. The thrill of the storyline held my attention throughout, leaving me both craving more and feeling a sense of fear about what might unfold. It was undeniably intense and kept me hooked from start to finish.

Simply terrible. I'm not a fan of the whole tens of improbable bad events happening in sequence genre, but this is just taking it to a whole other level.

The protagonist just presses random buttons and is so incompetent you wonder how she even became an astronaut. The physics and orbital mechanics in this movie make absolutely zero sense. One example out of the hundreds: it's highly improbable that the ISS and Tiangong would be within viewing distance of one another. And if they were they wouldn't stay that way for the roughly 2 hours the movie lasts, since they had very different inclinations. It would be impossible to reach one from the other with a single thrust designed for landing, even more impossible with manual controls. The first couple attempted rendezvous in history were from distances of 5 km (not the 100 in the movie) and failed, even though the pilots were clearly more competent than the protagonist here. There are so many errors here, I wouldn't be surprised if the Earth was flat (at least it would make the movie funny). This isn't just nitpicking since the movie tries to be realistic, but fails miserably.

Sure, the CGI is nice, but that's hardly a selling point in this day and age (or when the movie launched)

『ゼロ・グラビティ』のおもしろいポイントは、まず宇宙空間での無重力状態をリアルに表現している点です。作中では、無重力下での身体の動きや物体の挙動が非常にリアルに描かれており、視覚的にも臨場感があります。このリアリティが、視聴者を作品の世界に引き込みます。

また、主要キャラクターであるライアン・ストーン博士とマット・コワルスキーの心理描写も見どころの一つです。二人が置かれた絶望的な状況において、それぞれの過去や心情が丁寧に描かれています。特に、彼らが直面する困難に対してどのように向き合っていくのか、その心の葛藤や成長が描かれています。

さらに、作品全体に緊張感があり、一筋縄ではいかない展開が続きます。彼らが生還を目指す過程で起こるさまざまなトラブルや困難には目が離せません。その中で、彼らがどうやって立ち向かっていくのか、どんな決断を下すのかが見どころの一つです。

『ゼロ・グラビティ』は、宇宙空間でのサバイバルを描いた作品としてだけでなく、人間の精神の強さや絆、生命の尊さについても考えさせられる作品です。その緊迫感と感動が、視聴者を引き込んで離しません。
