[SPOILERS for Gravity]

Really? To me it was the other way.

It bothered me we didn't see the helicopters flying over her to rescue her.

[the_songbird]

I wasn't convinced that she actually survived and wasn't still hallucinating as she plummeted to her death.

[(Anonymous)]

Now that would've been neat. All Silent Hill and shit on you.

[morieris]

MMmmm. Maybe. But then again I completely stopped caring about everyone involved when it was revealed that her kid literally died from Death By Falling Over. Yeah, the movie was about pressing onward and lovely scenery, but really?

[(Anonymous)]

Get it? It was gravity that killed her kid! :D

[morieris]

/Snort.

Gravity
is working against me~~

[(Anonymous)]

I actually thought the ending was perfect. It was all part of the theme of rebirth and independence. I loved the thematic element to her coming out of the sea and then struggling to stand. It was like a metaphor for human evolution and I thought that was awesome.

Seeing her rescued by helicopters would have also diminished this to me, since a big part of what I enjoyed about her survival was that it was ALL her. After her partner died, it was all her.

[ladysugarquill]

I disagree. It's a movie about how this woman managed to get control of her life, to stop "drifting" metaphorically as well as literally. Although it could have worked only as a metaphor (she never returns to Earth but in her final moments, she IS in control of her life), I think it's so much stronger by showing her triumph in the end.

That final image of the character standing up, where it's shot from below, making you literally look up to her - it's amazing.

(Anon directly above you)

EXACTLY

[urania]

ia, ia

if it had ended on a cliffhanger, it would have been such a cheap copout

[(Anonymous)]

I thought it was absolutely perfect. I would have hated it if they'd shown more or less.

[dinogrrl]

I liked the ending, but it was also the one time I had a random thought enter my mind and totally destroy the mood of the movie. All I could think was "Well, wouldn't THAT suck if she drowned now?" which for some reason I found HILARIOUS and then I was too amused by that to appreciate the ending until after I left the theater.

Stupid brain.

[(Anonymous)]

The end of the movie was ruined for me because someone in the cinema yelled "OH NO! SHE LANDED IN NORTH KOREA!" which made me laugh far harder than it should have.

[dinogrrl]

That is indeed funny.
Actually that was kinda similar to the second thought I had after the drowning one. "Where did she land can she speak the language HOW WILL SHE TELL THEM SHE'S AN ASTRONAUT WHO NEEDS TO GET HOME."

Yeah that ending was way more hilarious in my head than I'm sure the filmmakers were aiming for.

[(Anonymous)]

i was expecting her to land near house of the Inuit man with the dog that she spoke to on the radio. lol

[(Anonymous)]

Damnit, now I want to see that as a sequel. She's kick all sorts of NK ass and she'd liberate the political prisoners because she's a white American.

Seriously, I loathe what's happening in North Korea. Anyone who can free those people, or can at least get them some FOOD, is a hero in my eyes.

And I like this idea.

[honestys_easy]

HAHAHAHA that was exactly what I was thinking when I saw the ending. She's barefoot, nearly naked, with no identification, food, or tools for survival, and I had bet she landed in a hostile country where she would immediately be branded a spy. Now where is THAT sequel.

[(Anonymous)]

Does she die?

SPOILERS, OBVIOUSLY

[(Anonymous)]

No, she makes it. The capsule crashes into water, and she almost drowns escaping before it fills up. The final shot is of her dragging herself up onto the beach and forcing herself to stand up and start walking.

Re: SPOILERS, OBVIOUSLY

[(Anonymous)]

Thanks!

[(Anonymous)]

This isn't Inception. We don't want to spend 3 years arguing over inconsequential details that totally prove she was alive, omg guys.

[(Anonymous)]

MTE. The ambiguous ending worked for Inception, since the whole point of the movie was the different levels of dreaming. It was an exercise in stretching your brain. I'm glad we got the closure of a real ending for Gravity. Gravity was, at least for me, a more emotional experience than Inception. My emotions were running so high that if the movie had ended without a real resolution, I would have been SO UPSET.

you are an idiot

[insanenoodlyguy]

That movie would have been panned universally for not having a fucking ending. your great movie would have flopped.
