My gf and I really enjoyed it. I realized at one point I was clutching my jacket in a clenched fist.

We had dinner with some friends for a birthday a couple nights later .. one of the ladies in the crowd mentioned that she was pissed that Bullock's character could not have been protrayed as a strong woman but had to have an emotional breakdown and the back-story of having lost a child. She compared that to Clooney's character that we know nothing about and take at face value. I didn't really want to argue.. this woman was a very liberal lawyer and a lesbian and I'd just admitted my chosen recreational acivities as being motorcycles and shooting. I was just happy she didn't take a fork to my throat right there in the restaurant. We did chat about bikes later. I would have thought she'd have been happy that Bullock really carried much of the movie.

btw.. i agree.. the photography was very cool and the weightless effects were really well done and seamless ..
