Gravity - Kritiken

If nothing else, Gravity makes the case for throwing immense resources at true visionaries; the blockbuster craftsman as adventurer, Cuarón expertly blends the epic with the intimate.

For all its stunning exteriors, it's really concerned with emotional interiors, and it goes about exploring them with simplicity and directness, letting the actors's faces and voices carry the burden of meaning.

...it is a testament to what can be achieved with modern technologies set the challenge of putting the audience at the absolute centre of the most extreme jeopardy imaginable — to be adrift in space.

...a brilliantly tense and involving account of two stricken astronauts; a howl in the wilderness that sucks the breath from your lungs.

...a film spectacular enough to demand the full IMAX 3-D treatment.

...Cuarón viser os hvordan en sand billedkunstner skaber stor filmkunst, for [den] lille ukomplicerede handling er i hans hænder et episk kalejdoskop af følelser og sanseindtryk.

…jag har svårt att tänka mig att en filmupplevelse kan bli mer kännbar än så här.

Gravity genopretter heroismen, men gør den til et spørgsmål om individuel udholdenhed for to astronauter, der er efterladt på en slags faldefærdig, svævende parkeringsplads.
