	Author	Review
United States	Justin Chang Variety	"A work of great narrative simplicity and visual complexity, it’s this image that speaks most eloquently to Cuaron’s gifts as a filmmaker"	POS
United States	Peter Travers Rolling Stone	"Cuarón is a true visionary. (...) he turns Gravity into a thing of transcendent beauty and terror. It's more than a movie. It's some kind of miracle. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Michael Phillips Chicago Tribune	"It's a nerve-wracking visual experience of unusual and paradoxical delicacy. And if your stomach can take it, it's truly something to see. (...) Rating: ★★★½ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	Oliver Lyttelton IndieWire	"'Gravity' is about as visceral an experience as you can have in a cinema, it’s a technical marvel, and it’s a blockbuster with heart and soul in spades. It’s about the best opening to a film festival that you could ask for"	POS
United Kingdom	Geoffrey Macnab The Independent	"A visual triumph even if its storytelling is less than sure-footed. (...) the plotting never quite matches its visual imagination. (...) Even so, this is a film that, at its best, really does induce a sense of wonder. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United States	Todd McCarthy The Hollywood Reporter	"Thrilling, and as close to feeling like you're in space as most of us will ever be. (...) Alfonso Cuaron's jaw-dropping space thriller. (...) with interludes of breath-catching tension and startling surprise."	POS
United Kingdom	Derek Malcolm London Evening Standard	"Alfonso Cuaron’s 3D space odyssey is visually spectacular despite a thin plot. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 5)"	POS
United Kingdom	Mark Adams Screendaily	"A genuinely tense and exciting lost-in-space thriller, Alfonso Cuaron's exhilarating and often spectacular 3-D film is a real pleasure, driven by top-notch lead performance from Sandra Bullock and George Clooney as well as some seriously cool special effects."	POS
United States	Claudia Puig USA Today	"[It] immerse us in an unforgettable personal story. (...) Rating: ★★★★ (out of 4)"	POS
United States	A. O. Scott The New York Times	"For all of Mr. Cuarón’s formal wizardry and pictorial grandeur, he is a humanist at heart."	POS
Spain	FilmAffinity	Director James Cameron's opinion about the film in Variety: “I was stunned, absolutely floored. I think it’s the best space photography ever done, I think it’s the best space film ever done, and it’s the movie I’ve been hungry to see for an awful long time."	POS
