Gravity Reviews
ABC Radio (Australia)
If I found a lamp, and a genie came out and granted me three wishes, I'd use one to raise Kubrick so I could take him to Gravity ... No element is out of place, no intention unrealized ... unity of time, place and character ... a work of the highest art.

... the most spectacular and most accurate portrayal of how and why things work and fail in space... on IMAX and in 3D is finally and absolutely worth the price of admission.

Perhaps the most remarkable thing is how the film makes the infinite vastness of outer space feel so intimate.
Mark Leeper's Reviews
visually beautiful and the science for the most part seems on the money right down to how the spacesuits move in a weightless environment.

Creative Loafing
To be frank, it's not Cuarón's best picture, not with Y Tu Mamá También and Children of Men on his resume. Yet what it lacks in sociopolitical heft and laser-point characterizations it makes up for in sheer visual spectacle.

Believe the hype: Gravity is as jaw-droppingly spectacular as you've heard - magnificent from a technical perspective but also a marvel of controlled acting and precise tone.

The closet I've ever been to being in space. There are times when you want to ask Sandra and George to move over because they and the so-so story are blocking the view.

Director Cuaron may lack imagination in plot and character, but he excels in style.

Antagony & Ecstasy
A magnificent thriller, and one of the most dumbfoundingly impressive technological feats in the 20 years since Jurassic Park put the world on notice about CGI.

"Gravity" leaves the viewer with indelible memories that traverse between fantasy and nightmare flashbacks like an energizing pattern between positive and negative polarities.

Cuaron and his team have crafted a masterpiece that is so much more than it seems. All the pieces come together to form one of the most unforgettable movie-going experiences of recent memory.

...a super-expensive thriller, at heart like many others, that I enjoyed reasonably well.

Gravity has such a big screen scope, 3D clarity and gripping story that it'd be a crime to simply wait for Blu-ray to watch it.

The Patriot Ledger
Cuaron thrusts us into the heavens for an adventure so lifelike you can almost reach out and touch the stars. And who wouldn't want to reach out and touch George Clooney and Sandra Bullock?

San Francisco Examiner
[The] director's last effort was another great science-fiction movie, "Children of Men," which was borne of ideas. This one celebrates sensation. And it deserves to be one.

Aisle Seat
A milestone in cinema. Ask me in twenty-five years about the most magical moviegoing excursions I've had, and I'm pretty sure I'll cite the day I saw Gravity as one of them.

Leonard Maltin's Picks
"Gravity" is a knock out, but without Bullock's movie-star charisma and everywoman relatability, the film wouldn't work nearly as well as it does.
Cleveland Plain Dealer
An intense visual wonder from Alfonso Cuaron with no extraneous BS. See it in 3-D if you can.
