9.7

We rate movies after watching them.  Each movie we watch at the conclusion we turn to one another expecting the other person's personal rating.  We rate on a scale of 1 to 10.  We get pretty specific about it too. 

Finally we saw a movie this year that has been ranked by both of us to be as close to 10 as I expect any movie this year to get in our system!  This past weekend we had a movie outing with my in-laws. We went to the Imax.  Which believe me any movie is better in an Imax theatre.  Imax definitely adds a little something special just as 3D does.

It was a Saturday night that we went.  One thing about going to a movie in the Imax on the weekend, you need to get there early to get a good seat.  We messed up on that part.  We had to all sit on the very front row.  I think it was safe to say we were all disappointed we had to sit in the front row.  However after about 5 maybe 10  minutes it was a happy accident in my opinion.  It was a view like no other.  The movie we saw was called Gravity with Sandra Bullock and George Clooney.  It's completely set in space.  Extremely impressive.  The cinematography is incredible, it was almost like watching a documentary on space yet it was a movie with a plot.  It's a definite "must-see" in my opinion.  However, I think for the full effect you need to see it in an Imax or at least in 3D.  The movie itself was good.  Interesting plot, good acting, and like I said the images were like nothing else you can see in any other movie released this year! 

When we came away from the movie both of us agreed on a rating of 9.7!!  I told you, we get specific with our ratings.  The first 9.7 movie I think I've seen in ages.  We've had a few 9.0's this year but 9.7 is the highest for us this year!
