It's a rare occasion when the two leads of the week's biggest new movie have a combined age of more than 100 years, especially when one of them isn't Woody Allen. But in Alberto Cuaron's Gravity, Sandra Bullock and George Clooney are ideal. Their privileged, age-softened features are just what you'd expect to see inside the helmets of contemporary astronauts, the ultimate symbols of boomer hubris. As the brilliant Children of Men showed, Cuaron is a social philosopher, and as Bullock spins off into the void after some space station accident it's clear that this Imax thought experiment is really about reaching too far.

Unlike Runner Runner, which seems to be a film of no ambition at all.
