Early in the film, when Matt asks Ryan what she likes best about their space walk, she replies, «the silence.» The Cuarons would have been wise to supply a bit more of it.

When was it last at the end of the credits so quiet in the cinema? Only the breathing sounds of the side people are heard, then breaks from somewhere a soft «wow» the spell. It is as if the audience has to make sure only gently 90 minutes from the brilliant «Gravity«, to be truly arrived on the ground.
