White-knuckle entertainment of the highest order! Directed by Alfonso Cuarón, and starring Oscar winners Sandra Bullock and George Clooney, this heart-pounding thriller pulls you into the infinite and unforgiving realm of space. Bullock plays Dr. Ryan Stone, a brilliant medical engineer on her first shuttle mission, with veteran astronaut Matt Kowalsky (Clooney). But on a seemingly routine spacewalk, disaster strikes. The shuttle is destroyed, leaving Stone and Kowalsky completely alone. Winner of seven Oscars at the 86th Academy Awards.
