One of my favorites was when Bullock couldn't get the shuttle to start, and she was very frustrated and the whole scene was very noisy, when it suddenly cuts to the same scene, but instead of being with her, we're looking at it from space. It's a visually stunning film.

I figured it would be good based on the director but I wasn't too keen on Bullock but man o man does she pull it off with aplomb. I can't think of a movie I've seen with her in it that I've really enjoyed but you are certainly correct, she reveals great depth here - hopefully she or someone around her is smart enough to capitalize on this and get her a couple of roles where she can actually "act". <br /><br />If Before Midnight was the most charmed I've been while watching a film this year and Prisoners was the most thrilling, than this was definitely the most tense/nail biting film I've seen in quite some time. Although the overarching plot is easy enough to figure out and is simple enough, that never provided any sort of release from my hands gripping the armrests for the entire portion of the film. If nothing else, I have yet to think of another movie that has kept me so nervous for it's entire length as this one did. maskofgojirahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18305737005899440472noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4784665635104956142.post-56943954596723531652013-10-03T23:42:21.161-04:002013-10-03T23:42:21.161-04:00It's a good one.
