Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney) in command of his last flight before retiring. But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone--tethered to nothing but each other and spiraling out into the blackness. The deafening silence tells them they have lost any link to Earth...and any chance for rescue. As fear turns to panic, every gulp of air eats away at what little oxygen is left. But the only way home may be to go further out into the terrifying expanse of space.

Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) is a medical engineer. Is testing equipment in space when a slight mishap snowballs into a full-blown disaster? Now Stone and astronaut Matt Kowalski (George Clooney) must work together and use their ingenuity if they have a chance at survival.
Many movies rely solely on their stories for entertainment. So, worrying about the type of movie, Blu-ray or 3-D, is not necessary. So, this would not normally be entered into a review. However, in the case of “Gravity” (2013), the visuals of Lake Powell, Arizona, space, and Sandra are important enough to warrant Blu-ray and even 3D treatment. I suspect it is just a matter of time before it gets the “4K” treatment. And even though space is silent, the background music adds character and does not distract from the presentation.
Next, to you, I am probably one of the last people to see this movie. I read all the hype for and against it. For people who think Sandra's hair didn’t fluff up at the right time, that’s a bunch of fluff. This film will keep you on your toes and ends way before it should.
