On the edge of my seat in *GRAVITY* FIRST TIME WATCHING MOVIE REACTION! 

The visuals in this film in the theaters was amazing. The closest most of us will ever get to actually being in space. Limited cast, high tension, and I'm glad you got to react to this one. Many people on this platform seem to miss this one.

GRAVITY is a beautiful metaphor for grief and how it weighs you down (like gravity), and holds you back (she is repeatedly tethered, and has to let go to survive).

This movie was EPIC, and I don't say that lightly, and Sandra was absolutely amazing, and if anyone ever doubted her acting abilities, this movie should put them to rest. She deserved every accolade and dollar she acquired from this movie and then some, as not everyone could have made this movie work, she was perfectly cast.

Saw this in the cinema, on the big screen, in 3D - it was every bit as thrilling as you imagined it would be. I'm an astronomer in my spare time and would love nothing more than to go into space, and this film alone is the reason my entire family think I'm insane for wanting that! And that bit on the ham radio with the dogs makes me well up every-single-time. Sandy B smashed this one out of the park

This was such an experience in the cinema. The way they filmed the first 20 minutes look like one continuous shot with those epic visuals and music was great.

i've seen this in theaters 16 times. the womb visual got me hooked and solidified the metaphore of grief and depression. the recurring shedding of layers and the threat of all consuming void of space, it really hit me at the time

I think the biggest lesson here is “It’s never over til it’s over”. With determination and thought there is always a chance to succeed.

Gravity. The story of how George Clooney would rather float off into space and die than spend one more minute talking to a woman his own age. (Tina Fey’s comment at the Golden Globes.)

Like the video (not this comment!) if you want to see more space movies!

Never apologize about swearing. Especially if it's part of your genuine reaction.

This reminds me of a joke that Tina & Amy did at the GG awards. Gravity is the story of how George Clooney would rather float into space and die than spend one more minute with a woman his own age.

This was, by far, the best 3D film I’ve seen in a theater.

Add this one to your sci-fi/space list "Silent Running" Bruce Dern 1971, interesting concept, even more relevent today

This was one of the few times I appreciated seeing a movie in 3D. Great review, reminded me of how anxious I was in the theater during this.

Winner of 7 Oscars including Best Director. It was the first Sci Fi movie to win Best Director.

Aningaaq (an ice fisherman) was the name of the Eskimo she was chatting with. There a "DVD extra" short from his perspective picking up her signal overhead on his sled radio.

Fire is SO dangerous in space. If you've seen one of those videos how quickly a room with furniture catches fire, now imagine that but the fire doesn't have the good grace to sit on the ground like it's heavy, but it floats in the room, creates airflows and coasts along those into other rooms and ventilations and THEN add the confined spaces of spaceships and -stations. The only good thing is that there's less burning material around, just to keep the danger manageable. As the fire burns and even once it's out, the smoke and gases pool into toxic clouds in the zero-G until the whole space is ventilated. (All movies of course downplay the amount of smoke fires make, so the audience could see.)

This beautiful film has so much to say about grief and perseverance. I love it so much. It takes, unfortunately, a decent amount of liberty with orbital mechanics to make any of the plot work, but I really think this two piece with Bullock and Clooney is a sci-fi masterpiece. This is what sci-fi is supposed to do; use science (or fantasy) as a context for powerful human stories. The coolest thing that is scientifically accurate is that the capsule she returns to earth in, which is also essentially a Soyuz capsule, despite being Chinese, is actually able to reenter in a tumble like that, it will right its own attitude. Very cool to see it depicted on film.

I saw this in theaters with my mom , it was amazing , she passed recently from cancer and this movies a beautiful memory I have with her , so grateful for the memories movies can and do make. 💜

The production team played a bit of a joke in this movie. In one scene there is a reflection in Kowalski's face shield showing a cameraman and boom mike operator, but they're wearing space suits, implying the scene was actually shot in space. :-D

This movie was MADE for 3D! I've been to the cinema, and it was just mind-blowing to see all the stuff flying around in space, the crane, the items, the debris, all in 3D mode ;)

From the glowing Richard Corliss review of Gravity: 'Cuarón offered the Ryan part to Angelina Jolie, twice, and then to Natalie Portman, Jennifer Lopez, Rachel Weisz, Marion Cotillard, Carey Mulligan, Blake Lively, Scarlett Johansson, Olivia Wilde-everybody. When these actresses see what Bullock has been given in the role, and the fiery commitment she gives to it, they should all whisper a sincere, Rick Perry-style “Oops.”’

The whole movie to me is basically a visual of conception to birth. The shot of the cables like the womb is one, but my favorite bit is when she gets that random connection with someone in a different language and they're almost cooing at her. It's probably what babies hear in the womb. Everything is scary and terrifying but there's this sweet voice on the other side assuring you everything is okay. There's more but it's so good.

This was the most beautiful movie reaction I've ever seen, and I've seen countless ones. The direction in this movie was insanely otherworldly. There is a bolt type that's used only by NASA for a specific space vessel, and they replicated that. Other details is that the first bug she sees is a species that was so important for early zoology studies. Last and most meticulous detail: she's suspended in water, then she swims, then she crawls, then she walks on four then she walks on two legs. That's the evolutionary theory. The amount of visual details and direction in this movie is on a whole other level.

There is a clip I found here on RU-vid, of the other side of the conversation with the man with the dogs.

The main CGI effect in this movie is the fact that there is no Glass in their helmets, so they reflect only what you would see in space.

I saw this in IMAX 3D and it was an extremely memorable theatrical experience. There are certain films that massively benefit from a big screen and this is definitely one of them.

That ending is just spectacular.. I was in tears.. A grown man..

First Man with Ryan Gosling as Neil Armstrong landing on the moon is great movie to see and thank you for another reaction video.

I wish more movies like this get a re-release in theaters. To see it in an IMAX would be amazing!

"Gravity" still has one of the best Dolby Atmos immersive tracks that has been released so far. It's too bad Jen could not have experienced the movie for the first time that way.

Seeing this in the theater in 3D was an incredible experience.

that re-entry scene and her speech gets me every single time. One of my favorite scenes of all time..

This film’s opening has quickly became one of my all time favorites, it’s so tense with the amazing visuals making the destruction of the Explorer look so disastrous, I’ve always loved when disaster scenarios take place in space.

so what do you get if you combine Gravity and The Martian? You get Sandy B and Matty D....and what do you get if you combine them? You get a beautiful and very resourceful problem solving baby! 🤣

I love these last moments when the child must emerge from the watery womb, so that the sea-bound creature can crawl onto shore and, ultimately, rise onto its feet in bipedal motion. Terrific stuff all around.

Jen here are some similar movies Passengers (2016) Apollo 13 (1995) Space cowboys (2000).

Awesome review!! Forgotten how intense/good this movie was. Saw it in the theater just for the special effects and was worth it. Few "space-centered" movies to consider: Apollo 13...about a near-disaster during a Moon mission and based on an actual event The Right Stuff...about the beginnings of the US space mission. NOTE: very long movie but worth every minute Apollo 18..."true" story as to WHY humans never went back to the Moon. OK - BSing on that one. It's about Moon aliens (Sci-Fi/horror/lost footage) and supposedly why humans never returned Life...about the finding/capture of an alien life form in space and its consequences (Sci-Fi/horror) Life Force...about SPACE VAMPIRES!!!!! Came out during 1980s when Halley's Comet last visited Earth. (Sci-Fi/horror) Moonraker...James Bond in space - 'nuff said!! 2001: A Space Odyssey...1968 and sets the standard for all space-oriented movies. Special Effects stands up better than modern SF. Long - and at times boring - movie but worth the watch (Sci-Fi) 2010: The Year We Make Contact....1984 and sequel to 2001: A Space Odyssey (Sci-Fi) The Day the Earth Stood Still (1951 & 2008) ...1951 version considered a Sci-Fi masterpiece, but the 2008 version has Keanu Reeves (Sci-Fi)

This film changed my life

Fun fact : In June 2011, the International Space Station was on a collision course with pieces of space debris. Astronaut Ron Garan and his crew had to quickly retreat to the lower Soyuz rescue capsule and were ordered to leave the spacecraft immediately in the event of a collision, something that had only happened once before in the history of orbital travel. Fortunately, the debris narrowly missed the station, but in the event of a collision the entire station would have been destroyed, according to calculations. Interestingly enough, the film was not inspired by this event, as it was filmed from 14 May to 6 July 2011, parallel to this incident 🤗

from where i stand, you will never have to excuse yourself, whatever you sweater is saying, hahaha, love those sweater with french mentions on...your react, great as always...

This movie was a 3d sensation when it came to the theaters. btw: the pitch for this movie must have been:" Sandra B falls to earth"

Now I feel like there should be a band "Sandy B and the Astronauts".

Hi Jen hope you are having an great and awesome day ❤️

Jen, you are absolutely correct that slow careful movements are the key to a successful spacewalk. NASA found this out on Gene Cerman's EVA on Gemini IX. That story is also worthy of a movie!

No.1 film in the history of October and 100 awards exactly (including 7 Oscars and 1 Golden-Globe). The biggest film for the careers of Bullock, Clooney and filmmaker Alfonso Cuaron. Robert Downey Jr. almost played Clooney's role and bowed out during pre-production (couldn't handle it). A true Sci-Fi masterpiece that I witnessed in IMAX during opening weekend. Such an incredible experience of what it's like between Earth and the stars. To deal with constant danger and survival was astonishing.

Another stellar space movie reaction Jen! And I can confirm that this movie is best viewed in 3D on a large screen, because I've seen it several times on a 115" Cinemascope screen in my theater room using the 3D Bluray, and it's... Aweeee Mazing!!!!

When I watched this movie I constantly caught myself holding my breath.

This was filmed for 3d was great in the cinema.

Thank You Jen Murray!

Great movie. Usually Jen you are real good with your reactions and enjoyment of the movie, but this time you were absolutely great. I don't remember you talking to us viewers, you were talking with the movie and to the movie. You were so into, engrossed with this movie. It seems you never let us down.

Jen, I just love how much you love the movies.

I saw this in IMAX 3D and yes, it was how you imagine it must have been. Amazing.

The scene of her drifting into the inky abyss of space is one of the most stomach dropping scenes of the movie.

When you said "Sandy B," my brain immediately envisioned a bumble bee covered with sand. I love you have nicknames for characters and actors.

I saw in imax 3d. It was the most dazzling experience I've ever have.

This is a beautiful movie. And, yes, it was a spectacle in the theater.

Saw this in 3d IMAX. An amazing experience. I instinctively was ducking my head to avoid the debris flashing out of the screen. Great all the way around.

This movie is the definition of a white-knuckle ride. I could still remember when it was all over. My hands actually hurt from gripping the seat! same with my wife. Watching it with you I feel like I've got PTSD

3D IMAX with the screen surrounding you? Oh my God. I'll probably never get to see it in that perfect format again.

I saw this in the IMAX theater and it was just mind blowing.

I saw it in IMAX 3D when it came out. Amazing experience.

Let's Fly Away, Let's fly,Let's Fly, Let's Fly with Jen🎶🎶🎶😊

I love this movie. Cuaron, the director, was inspired as a boy by the movie Marooned. In fact, if you see Roma, the movie he made about the time of his youth in Mexico, the movie briefly appears there. Marooned has a lot of star power, with Gregory Peck as the program director, but sadly it is as dull as dishwater, so here we have a case where a not-so-great movie, which was also about astronauts who need to be safely returned to Earth, inspired a dazzling one. The director's son made a short movie about the Icelander with the dog and the ham radio on the other side of that radio conversation. There is some serious concern that we now have so many satellites up within a finite sphere of space above us that we are creating a "junkosphere" which may lead to a crisis of space debris rather like the one in this movie. I find it amazing that nineteen years after Speed, another movie about high- speed vehicles, that Sandra Bullock is still crushing it. Thank you!

Another great space movie is First Man, with Ryan Gosling and Claire Foy. It's based on Neil Armstrong's life and the Apollo 11 mission to the moon. Very inspiring and the visuals are awesome!

Beautifully filmed movie.

Such a great movie. I reacted like you when Clooney opened the door. "She is going to die!" It was a beautiful movie to watch on the big screen. Oblivion with Tom Cruise is another good Scifi space movie

When I saw this in the cinema, the scene where she gets detached and is spinning off head over heels made me violently retch. I was wound so tightly, it affected my gag reflex.

Jen, once again terrific choice! Dramas about problem solving in a hostile environment always make for great Cinema, Apollo 13, 2001 a Space Odyssey, 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. The environment itself becomes a crucial character. Love your choices, love your reactions. Always here for them all.

The sequel: Gravity 2 -The Tethering 😂

With the exception of Avatar, this was my favorite 3D theater movie..

Yes! This was great! And yes, more space movie reactions! You ought to watch Apollo 13 from 1995... comparable thrills! It stars Tom Hanks! You would love it!

One thing this teaches us is the most important thing needed to be an astronaut is having amazing grip and strong fingers 🙂 facts . Visually beautiful a wonderful reaction as always jen 💙 hit like on your comment and the video ofc 👍 my nugget search continues 🙂

What was portrayed in this movie has been termed Kessler syndrome. It's a collision cascade, where 1 piece of debris impacting a satellite or station in orbit produces way more pieces of debris, impacting way more area, creating more debris... If this were to ever happen, space travel would be impossible for generations, as the risk of being hit would be too high, requiring that we wait for decades for most of the debris to reenter the atmosphere.

Sci Fi? That's museum exhibits now!

Saw this in imax 3D! It was like a ride!

Still working my way through your back catalog (which I will one day find I am up to date on... sadly), but its stuff like this video, where your excitement, energy and... yeah... nervousness ;) shines so brightly that it just keeps me coming back for more! So good. Thanks!

In all the space movies I have ever seen since I was a kid way back in the 70's, this one just blew my mind in 3D. Almost everything you see is photo-real CGI. In fact, there's so much composes this movie, you could almost call it an animated feature. I would encourage you to take a look at how the FX were done in, it took about 5 years to make and they invented technology to do it including a camera mounted on a large robotic arm like those for welding cars together.

great reaction good movie

This was an awesome watch in the cinema, only time I've found 3D any good. One of the most technologically advanced movies at the time, Ironic for a movie all about technological isolation ( and re-birth ). The soundtrack is amazing, Lisa Hannigan singing during the re-entry sequence is epic. One of my all time favourites.

If you haven't watched it yet, I recommend Apollo 13, with Tom Hanks!

Gravity in IMAX 3D was insane.

A great series to watch is "The Expanse" it's a show that puts a lot of effort into getting the science right and it's now my favourite TV show off all time. If you like movies might "The Martian" and "Gravity" then you should definitely watch "The Expanse". It's also been described as "Game of Thrones in Space". A really great show that I'm 100% sure you will love!

Best reaction ever!

Great reaction. Really enjoyed the editor notes as well. 😄

The visuals in this film are upper echelon!

The debris might have seemed slower than it should have if one doesn't remember just how fast our protagonists are moving.

If you have a VR headset, you MUST watch the VR documentary they did on the space station, they film inside and OUTSIDE it, its FREAKING AWESOME. Its like youre in orbit for real. It's called Space Explorers.

Great reactions to Gravity, Jen!!!🎬👏🏽👏🏽👏🏽I haven't seen this since seeing it was in the theater. I forgot how she got home at the end. "Moon" (2009) is another very good space film with a small cast. This film is highly underrated. Similar ratings at IMDb as this film at 7.8. Gravity rating 7.7.🙂

I saw this movie on a flight from east coast to west coast. No kidding.

I think the MVP award should go to the Chinese space station. Without it, Dr. Stone would have fallen back to earth very much like...well, like a stone, I guess.

I like the little Marvin the Martian statue floating around.

I am glad you see the gravity of this movie. It is very important to suspend disbelief in this movie.

Gravity was definitely great .. Have you ever seen the film “Sunshine” (2007) it’s a beautiful and underrated sci-fi/space movie directed by Danny Boyle and also features a tremendous cast!

Another great reaction, Jen, thank you. As for suggestions of similar films; '2001: A Space Odyssey', and the follow up '2010: The Year We Make Contact', 'Apollo 13', and another couple of space related ones (sort of) which I think that you'll enjoy, 'Contact' from 1997 and 'Interstellar' from 2014.

I'm sorry about the swearing but this is HIGH STAKES!! 🤣🤣🤣❤️❤️❤️ I've always loved space movies, my favorites being Star Wars and Star Trek. Here's a few others that could be worth a watch: Life 2017, Moon 2009, Solaris 2002, Interstellar 2014, Marvel movies!

I specifically bought a 3d TV back when they were still a thing so I could enjoy this movie at home. Just watched it with my son a few weeks ago and the 3d holds up beautifully. Still as intense as ever!!

😎👍 I haven't read all the comments yet, but as for other great movies that involve space travel, you can't go wrong with "Contact" (1997) or "Interstellar" (2014). Curiously enough, one was made 17 years after the other and they both star Matthew McConaughey. 🎇

Hey Jen, "Sunshine" is one of my all time best space movies. Also check out "Stargate" and some of the newer "Star Trek" with Chris Pine or Star Trek: Next Generation movies with Patrick Stewart. I think you should see the newer ones before you check out the original movie. I think the new ones will captivate you better and then you can dive into the original movies. Just my 2 cents.

One suggestion for Steph G (and Jen)...next time Jen shrieks like she did at 7:39, Steph G, please put in a warning caption a few seconds before....Jen's shreak nearly knocked me out of my chair! 😲
