 Plot:

Gravity is an action film and science fiction thriller in which a NASA spaceship call “Explorer” is in the space. The problem comes when a Russian missile strikes on a defunct satellite and the rests don’t have a specific direction so they provoke a chain reaction that ends with a crash to Doctor  Ryan Stones spaceship.  Ryan goes out its orbit and Matt Kowalski has to look for it. When they finally return to the Explorer no one is alive. After checking all the damages they go to the International Space Station (ISS ) in order to take a scape capsule for returning to Earth, but suddenly all goes wrong and Matt Kowalski disappears because the rope that keeps them together broke . Ryan is alone and although there’s not a lot of oxygen she finally enters on the ISS. A fire forces her to leave the ISS in a capsule toward a China orbital station (Tiangong) which is rapidly deorbiting. Ryan uses a fire extinguisher as an  improvised propellant to travel to the orbital station. Ryan enters the capsule just as Tiangong starts to break on the atmosphere, but she is ready to land to Earth. The capsule lands in a lake and when she opens the capsule hatch the water enters and sinks it forcing Ryan to swim ashore. She takes her first steps in the full gravity of Earth.

 

 

Personal opinion:

It is a wonderful science fiction film and is very well done, the special effects are very good, with spectacular images from space. The film is not long and is a pleasure to see. It is a highly recommended film that I loved.
