Amazingly shot by Mexican Alphonso Cuarran Gravity stars Sandra Bullock as an astronaut who suffers a problem in orbit and then must return back home any way possible. The cinematography and direction is amazing and the shots of the planet are humbling and scary at the same time. Of course, I know all this is CGI but it looks so real you'd be shocked. George Clooney also stars but he's barely in the film. Bullock is more than competent and carries the film though it is the visuals and the sequences of chaos that stay with you.
