The basic plot of Gravity consists of a medical engineer Dr. Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) on her first shuttle mission with a veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (George Clooney). However, while in the middle of an ordinary mission everything began to fall apart. The shuttle was in complete ruins, which caused Stone and Kowalsky to be all alone in space.

The director Alfanso Cuarón did an amazing job capturing the emotions of Dr. Stone in space, by showing her reactions and every detail of how a person may feel during a failed space mission. Cuarón also had a very well written script and chose an excellent cast to execute the performance. However the most important details of the film were the graphics, which helped emphasize the situation Stone and Kowalsky were in. Although the film contained many incredible aspects and was able to bring space to a theater, it left a sort of unexplainable unsatisfactory feeling. After leaving the theater it felt as though the 91 minutes of film were only five minutes long, and the plot could be summed up in even less time.
