I was really looking forward to watch this highly aclaimed show. But unfortunately it turned out a waste of time even though I managed to finish the 1st season. Plot is somewhat probable but the focus of this crime drama is changing irrationally. It is not a so called classical twist and turn but a rather a series of clumsy attempts to attract the viewers attention once a nearly dead end of certain chapter is reached.

It is so childishly shaped that I may not even give a try to the second season. Acting is in general average, yet there are some really less than mediocre scenes prolongations through less then average acting or directing. Forgotten the moment show ended.

Lawyers are typically rich, legal representatives are associated to police and underground, human relationship are difficult and complicated, friendship never ends. Are these fact all known to you ? In combination with Slovenian movie femme fatale Nina Ivanisin and her cute fellow Nika Rozman this movie is very descent Slovenian story told by good actors and moderate script and directing. It has enough teasing secrets to attract your attention. It analyses the human relationship, it challenges friendship and tells about the complexity, but also simplicity and shallowness of our way of living. Food, party, sex, money, power ... that's it ! In combination with murder and few secrets, some of them alluding to similarity to real Slovenian scandals from recent past this movie is worth seeing.

Space. Silence. These two terms are a perfect description of the movie. You would think then there is no action in the movie, that the movie is rather boring in general. But you would be so wrong. There is a lot of action. Besides the happening, which is shown perfectly, regardless the methods, technology or computer animation used, there is an action, or better to say quite a storm also in the main actors minds. The first one seems very superficial and shallow, however full of wisdom, in the second character there is fight going on, for which space as a scenery is perfect place to take. A place of piece, a place of silence to think about. George is great, his stories are macho alike, yet behind this shell there is just a human who is scared and trying to convince the others he is not and vice versa, showing he is respectful to space but brave enough at the same time, even though only fictitiously. Sandra is, as usual, perfect in her role. She contributes her "spice" just in a sufficient quantity. Her attractiveness is also not distracting you from the initial movie intention, that is piece, that her character deserves. Dive in to Gravity, you will not regret it.
