Gravity (2013) ☆☆☆☆(4/4) : It’s really terrifying to be floated alone in the space
One of the sweet memories during my trip to Chicago in 2010 was watching movies with my friend and mentor Roger Ebert during one sunny Thursday afternoon. We watched three movies together along with his lovely wife Chaz and his … Continue reading
Europa Report (2013) ☆☆☆(3/4) : A Hard SF recorded on Found footage
