Gravity
- Run Time: 90 mins.
- Starring: Sandra Bullock, George Clooney, Ed Harri
- Rated: PG-13
Mark Glass, Patch blogger: **** (PG-13) There have been plenty of movies that were close to being one-actor tours de force with their star stranded in Spartan or hostile environs - Spencer Tracy in
Old Man and the Sea; Tom Hanks in
Cast Away; Sam Rockwell in
Moon; Sigourney Weaver in
Alien; the upcoming Robert Redford nautical solo,
All is Lost, to name a few. This one gives us Sandra Bullock as an astronaut who is more schooled in science than flight, finding herself alone in orbit after her vehicle and communication with NASA are wiped out by space debris.
