Oh wow look!
I'm doing a review that isn't about books.
That's kind of a surprise.
Now, this film is phenomenal. You would think it was boring, but oh no, I was on the edge of having a heart attack over half the time... not kidding.
Yet again, Sandra Bullock has out done herself (seriously though she is a perfect actress), why don't we talk about Sandra Bullock more? We should talk about her more. For about half the film (maybe less? I don't know, I didn't count the hours...) she was on her own on the screen, only with voices but no other visual people, and yet... it wasn't boring. What? How did she do that you ask? By being a kick-ass actress, yep, that's how she did it.
She was just fabulous, she was so realistic and made me want to cry half the time when she was talking about Earth and her past life down here. Also, the way she played off with the limited characters we saw was great, like George Clooney's character, Matt Kowalski, it was so witty, genuine, light-hearted and gave some of the film a nice feel to it - when you didn't want to rip out your hair in tension.
Besides George and Sandra making me want to cry and yell my swears in frustrations at the screen, there was no plot for this film (which was kinda weird but good). But even though there was no plot this film was so intersting, it kept you on the edge of your seat, and kinda made you want to strangle the director (Alfonso Cuaron), but at the sound time just feed him lots of cakes in reward for being so brilliant.
Overall, this movie is amazing, and you never get bored - it keeps you on the edge of your seat constantly. I probably won't watch it again in the near future, but that doesn't mean never.
