Konterr Brilliant and touching
Married Baby Just intense enough to provide a much-needed diversion, just lightweight enough to make you forget about it soon after it’s over. It’s not exactly “good,” per se, but it does what it sets out to do in terms of putting us on edge, which makes it … successful?
Cassandra Story: It's very simple but honestly that is fine.
Brooklynn There's a more than satisfactory amount of boom-boom in the movie's trim running time.
jessrein We're mid way through the first season of Gravity and not surprisingly comments are very diverse. I say it is not surprising because Gravity is a subtle, cognitive, emotional and non-formulaic show which can take some time to get a handle on, but once you do it's a deep-cool trip well worth your while, but you must stay with it like with any relationship of substance that grows at almost imperceptible intervals until its virtues appear in gratifying surprises.Take the main theme of the show: suicide. Who hasn't contemplated checking out of this dimension from time to time, at least when at the motor vehicle department or more importantly when in a hellish place within our own interior? These are dark, scary places, but it's very cathartic and important to look under the rocks of despair and confront the rawest and most tormented areas of life where the full gamut of emotions and thoughts run wildly, often on a collision course with mortality itself.For those still on the fence, perhaps some of your angst comes from the non-formulaic nature of the show. There's no shame in admitting that we expect railings and handles in certain places, especially when shambling along in the dim light of a new series that dodges convention at many turns. It takes a while for any show to get traction, but with a little faith there is no doubt in my mind that Gravity will take you on an interesting and fun journey. I know this because Jill Franklyn, the creator, whom I consider a sort of nouveau female incarnate of Woody Allen, is not going to let this thing ever get hum drum. No, no. She has just begun laying down her roller coaster track, not to physically flail you about, but to cavort your heart and mind subtly. And you need to watch carefully to stay on the ride, one that Starz will hopefully allow to continue on its wonderful course.
nospam-82 I have seen three episodes. The initial thought was that there has to be some hook or something somewhere to make the audience to come back for more, but so far I am wrong.The acting is poor, characters flat, 'jokes' not funny, unimaginative script, no twists, no humour, nothing to disgust me, or feel any kind of emotion, or even make me think. It is as entertaining as watching paint dry.If you are a fan of either House, Dexter, Lost, Chuck, Glee, or the slow paced Justified, then you probably will find this series (so far) very very disappointing, and that is being kind.Just like chuck opened with Cake's 'Short Skirt, Long Jacket', this should have opened up with a version of "Mad World", but that would have been it's only redeeming feature, and a waste of a good song.
mdteamo deep,funny and enjoyable. Eric has another winner. Thank you. great characters. well acted. can't wait till the next episode. Beautiful dark stories. Should be viewed by teenagers and the impressionable. Eric brings to life the thoughts and feelings that we all have about love and life. I am so happy this art is not on network TV so all the levels and depths can be touched of this taboo subject. This has the makings of the greats like The Saprano's, Deadwood, In treatment, Dexter and the United states of Tara. It looks like Starz is getting into the intelligent television business with Spartacus, Party on, and now Gravity. Just remember you don't have to go years between seasons. I am hoping that the suits leave this one alone. I know a great show like swingtown would have thrived had it not been on network TV. So suits, remember, you are not on network TV and Eric Schaefer was not meant to be on network. Go Gravity. Thanks Eric!
bifties As soon as the first episode starts you cannot be helped for thinking you are watching one of those God awful day time amercian soaps. The sets are bad, the filming is bad, the actors are bad and thats not just due to the script being bad. I nearly gave up about 5 minutes in, but a gratuatous "night, night kitty" arse shot bought them a while longer. When its bad, it really has nothing going for it, but at times I found myself thinking of one of those dreary Cronenberg films like "Spiders" or the one with the rabbits. But unfortunately I do not mean this to be seen as a positive, because Cronenberg only gets away with it because of some of the excellent films he has made. IMDb lists this program as a comedy / drama. In my opinion the comedy is not funny and the drama less than dramatic. Avoid it, it cant possibly last.
