Believe the hype: Gravity is as jaw-droppingly spectacular as you've heard - magnificent from a technical perspective but also a marvel of controlled acting and precise tone.

Unfolding as a series of terrifying object lessons in Newtonian physics, the movie lends new meaning to the phrase "spatial geometry."

Gravity is not a film of ideas, like Kubrick's techno-mystical 2001, but it's an overwhelming physical experience -- a challenge to the senses that engages every kind of dread.

Nerve-racking, sentimental and thrilling, Gravity honors terra firma even as it reaches for the stars with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney.

Cuar?n and his cinematographer, Emmanuel Lubezki, keep the audience in weightless suspension right along with the astronauts. For most of us, Gravity is the closest we will ever get to the real deal.

Gravity, a weightless ballet and a cold-sweat nightmare, intimates mystery and profundity, with that mixture of beauty and terror that the Romantics called the sublime.

Gravity is about letting go, despite the film's poster proclaiming not to. It's a very good film technically. Nothing more.

If I found a lamp, and a genie came out and granted me three wishes, I'd use one to raise Kubrick so I could take him to Gravity ... No element is out of place, no intention unrealized ... unity of time, place and character ... a work of the highest art.

... the most spectacular and most accurate portrayal of how and why things work and fail in space... on IMAX and in 3D is finally and absolutely worth the price of admission.

Perhaps the most remarkable thing is how the film makes the infinite vastness of outer space feel so intimate.

visually beautiful and the science for the most part seems on the money right down to how the spacesuits move in a weightless environment.

An elegant space film, with some of the best photography ever.

To be frank, it's not Cuar?n's best picture, not with Y Tu Mam? Tambi?n and Children of Men on his resume. Yet what it lacks in sociopolitical heft and laser-point characterizations it makes up for in sheer visual spectacle.

The closet I've ever been to being in space. There are times when you want to ask Sandra and George to move over because they and the so-so story are blocking the view.

Director Cuaron may lack imagination in plot and character, but he excels in style.

A magnificent thriller, and one of the most dumbfoundingly impressive technological feats in the 20 years since Jurassic Park put the world on notice about CGI.

"Gravity" leaves the viewer with indelible memories that traverse between fantasy and nightmare flashbacks like an energizing pattern between positive and negative polarities.

Bullock and Clooney are good at playing themselves, but it felt like they "phoned" it in making the film feel shallow. Some nice visuals, but nothing that we haven't seen in far better Space films.

Cuaron and his team have crafted a masterpiece that is so much more than it seems. All the pieces come together to form one of the most unforgettable movie-going experiences of recent memory.

...a super-expensive thriller, at heart like many others, that I enjoyed reasonably well.

Gravity has such a big screen scope, 3D clarity and gripping story that it'd be a crime to simply wait for Blu-ray to watch it.

Cuaron thrusts us into the heavens for an adventure so lifelike you can almost reach out and touch the stars. And who wouldn't want to reach out and touch George Clooney and Sandra Bullock?

[The] director's last effort was another great science-fiction movie, "Children of Men," which was borne of ideas. This one celebrates sensation. And it deserves to be one.

A milestone in cinema. Ask me in twenty-five years about the most magical moviegoing excursions I've had, and I'm pretty sure I'll cite the day I saw Gravity as one of them.
