Critics Consensus

Alfonso Cuarón's Gravity is an eerie, tense sci-fi thriller that's masterfully directed and visually stunning.

Their [Sandra Bullock and George Clooney] fight for survival against the odds is so brilliantly realised that you forgive the implausible plot.

With its themes of spirituality, religion, birth, rebirth and hope, Gravity is a film that will move audiences in different ways. That's the beauty of it; it transcends genres, generations and time, a modern classic.

Gravity is arguably the best 3-D movie of all-time and it's an experience we've never seen before at the theater.

Midwest Film Journal

While there is no way to truly re-create the wholly immersive theatrical experience of "Gravity" at home, the newly reissued Blu-ray comes closest — reintroducing a powerful Dolby Atmos sound mix and intriguing extra features into a more affordable orbit.

Rated: 4/5

Slick, hollow and wildly overpraised, Gravity is the poster child for how far visuals can carry an empty story. Sure, it’s “visually stunning,” but that’s not enough to justify the awards avalanche or Alfonso Cuarón’s Best Director win. The script is undercooked, the characters are weightless in every sense and Sandra Bullock’s emotional arc never earns its stakes. There are three or four strong sequences, but the story feels like it began in act two and ended before act three. Beautifully rendered emptiness - nothing tethered me to the outcome.

A science fiction film that amounts to little more than one very long special effect.

I have no idea what the critics are thinking on this film other than the special effects. It's massively disappointing. Implausible plot, logic-defying situations, Sandra's panties - this is hardly an effort a true sci-fi aficionado could ever appreciate. Just simply another special effects focused Sci-Fi film *yawn*

Is there a way to give a movie zero stars? Just Sandra Bullock hyperventilating for two hours. George Clooney was in it for a millisecond, and people in the theater were shouting “die already”. I’ve never seen so many people leave the theater before. I’ve never done so, but was tempted.
