Gravity is a sci-fi cum thriller movie starring Sandra Bullock and George Clooney. Directed by Alfonso Cuaron, this movie is about two astronauts out on a space walk, when their Shuttle gets hit with space debris and within a blink of an eye their missions truns into a fight for survival. Its an adventurous ride with breathtaking cinematography and amazingly well directed sequences.
Its one of those movies which one should watch in a movie theatre in 3D but nonetheless watching this movie at home would still be an amazing experience. This movie leaps onto its users, takes you through lots of bone-chilling near death sequences which just leave the users stunned. It was made with a humongous budget and it totally did justice to it.

The movie has like a hidden meaning too, Dr.Ryan Stone (Sandra Bullock) in a desperate attempt to get back to Earth loses his partner as well as contact to the mission control. Now after this she is shown floating in the Russian Soyuz with a cable floating around just like a Baby in a womb, later when she gets to the Chinese Capsule trying to get home she is talking like a baby and trying to understand a Chinese man, as if she was a new born trying to talk to a person. And later when she finally lands on Earth safe and sound, she gets out of the water, where she had made the landing and then starts walking towards land, falling as she is not completely adapted to the gravity and then after taking some steps finally being able to stand. And this stage depicts a child learning to walk. So, after a near death experience, these step by step events could in a way portray rebirth of Dr.Ryan Stone. From a moment where she had lost all hope to then getting a new life.
This is what we noticed and this out of sight yet right in front of you way of showing a disguised meaning in the story is what the JTeam truly loved in this Alfonso Cuaron`s masterclass of a movie. All viewers are open to their own understanding of the movie but if you notice the aforementioned storyline too, do leave a comment!
