Genre: Drama Sci-Fi Thriller, Warning this film is extremely disturbing & extremely intense & is not suitable for any one under 15.
Cert: This film was given a 12A, but I would say this film is not suitable for any one under 15 due to contents of the film.
Parents advised to read before viewing film as some scene may contain scenes unsuitable for younger viewers.
Sex & Nudity: none
Violence & Gore: There are several lengthy sequences of destruction and action, with a few brief graphic images. Some of the details below reveal spoilers.
A group of astronauts are hit by debris. The space shuttle is destroyed and all except for two are killed. We briefly see two dead bodies floating in the shuttle. Very disturbing.
There are a few dead astronauts shown in a scene, with no blood, and they just appear to be frozen. Disturbing emotionally because of the loss of life, but not with the imagery.
An astronaut is seen with a large hole right through his helmet and head; this image is very graphic, but relatively blood-free, and subsequently not very disturbing.
Astronauts hit things in space with intense force, but wounds or physical consequences of these aren't seen, and it's not graphic at all, though they bounce violently off of various parts of the station and yell and scream in panic.
A woman inside a space station finds a huge fire. She tries to put it out with an extinguisher which throws her back into a wall, leaving a cut and bruise on her face.
Profanity: One use of the 'f' word, (One actual usage, and one implied, under-breath cut out where we can see mouth movement but do not hear it), some uses of the 'shit' word, and various other scatological terms. No religious profanity.
Alcohol/Drugs/Smoking: A character briefly drinks from a bottle of vodka.
The aforementioned vodka is mentioned.
Frightening/Intense Scenes: The sequences involving the destruction of the space stations are very intense.
The whole film has a very tense, disturbing atmosphere. After the first 8 minutes, the action and intensity is constant. Some scenes can also be very emotionally intense and difficult to watch. There are many claustrophobic scenes that could upset viewers.
A frozen dead body with a large hole right through his space helmet and head is seen in graphic detail, though without blood (or anything really) in the cranium, so despite it being potentially very intense under normal Earthly circumstances, is much less scary and disturbing than would normally be. This film is not suit for any one under the age of 15 as some scene are extremely disturbing & intense for the younger viewers.
Story: 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
Likes : This film is a one of a kind, I don't think ive left a film emotionally drain, I think I left my jaw on the ground when I left, this film is seriously intense, emotional & frightening from the get go, what's makes this brilliant is it start off with this beautiful visual Cinematography of the earth with stunning effects everything is claim then it hit you in the face with a roller-coaster of intense frightening nail biting moment & emotions.
George Clooney as Matt Kowalsky bring an outstanding performance with some emotional scene that will shock the hell out of you this is exactly what you'd come to expect from the Oscar-winning producer and actor like George. He utilizes his wit and charm to be a lighter force of our dark tale, and is a perfect balance to Bullock's frantic demeanor.
Sandra Bullocks character you start to feel sorry for as you learn about her past but what her character is put through in this film is beyond shocking & a feet of courage against all odds to survive in space, I believe that this acting in this film she should get a Oscar for best supporting actress or best actress award for this film alone because her performance was outstanding really dose bring you to tears.
The intensely of the film alone seriously pulls you to the edge of your seat you find your self in shock as you witness the action on screen that bring a cold chill down your spine & really dose bring you to cry your eyes out because the intense emotional dark concept that this film brings. It also has that tragedy feel to the film which also adds to the emotional side, which is why this film is one of the best film ive seen in a long time that you will not be disappointed with, I highly recommend you go watch this in 3D at the cinema because its one of the most spectacular film ever this year.
Dislikes : Only one slight mistake which is a movie mistake, it only noticeable if you watch carefully but other wise you would notice that all, which is easy to over look because the film is brilliant
Overall : Emotional, extremely intense & frightening outstanding film you ever watch, a must to watch in 3D at the cinema.
Rating: 5 out of 5 for entertainment / 9.7 out of 10 for concept & storyline
