We went to see the new movie "Gravity." It is an inspirational film about an astronaut, Dr. Ryan Strong (Sandra Bullock), who becomes stranded in space.
This intense movie filled us with mixed emotions. It made us laugh, cry and tremble with fear. We got chills from this thrilling movie that kept us on the edges of our seats. The 3-D effects were phenomenal. We had no idea how beautiful Earth looks from space. The film is rated PG-13, but we think it is fine for kids 10 and older, as long as they can handle a few curse words and a couple of floating corpses.
We are wondering why the movie is called "Gravity," since it takes place in outer space, where there is zero gravity. Gravity or no gravity, make sure you see this movie and remember to hold on tight and don't let go!
RATING: 41/2 out of 5
After seeing the movie, three of us were lucky enough to talk with actress Sandra Bullock about making it.
