Storyline

Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) in command of his last flight before retiring. But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone - tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness. Written by MuTaTeD

Goofs

It is hard for most people to understand the difficulty in being in orbit trying to reach another object in orbit. Accelerating an object in the direction of travel will actually not move you forward. Instead the energy is used up raising the object's altitude, where it will have a slower orbital speed and therefore actually move "backwards" in orbit. Accelerating "up," "down" or "backward" would have other results that most people wouldn't expect. For Stone to directly aim at the Chinese space station in its own independent orbit and accelerate in that direction would give results that are unpredictable given our lack of knowledge of both orbits, but most definitely would not result in her getting to where she wants to go.

Boring
8 November 2013 | by See all my reviews

You can throw all the technical razzamatazz at the screen you want. You can tempt us with sumptuous visuals and eye-popping 3D effects. But when a film is boring, its boring. Sandra Bullock drifting through space talking to herself is boring. George Clooney acting like a wise ass with a heart is boring. Seeing floating debris and explosions in space when you never feel anyone is in danger is boring. Attempts at sentimentality using the hoariest clichés in the screenplay book is boring. Writing this review now is boring. In fact, I think I'll stop. Right now. Cos I'm bored. The most overrated movie since Inception. 3/10
