Gravity Soars But Falls Flat for PTT

My friends and I saw "Gravity" last night at the Navy Pier IMAX in Chicago. I didn't know much about the film and wasn't necessarily sparked to see it by the ads. But the reviews (and my friend DP) sold me so I went. The outcome? The movie is visually stunning on the big screen. But after 60 minutes, I was a little bored. That, and I never quite never surrendered to believing the film and characters. It probably didn't help that Sandra now looks like an elf and George was, well, George. "Gravity" is, however, on track for the largest October non-sequel opening weekend of all time with $48,000,000.
