When Earth becomes inhabitable, a group of people head off into space on an interstellar journey to find their new home.
I've recently been getting into Christopher Nolan's stuff and after The Dark Knight and Inception my expectations were incredibly high and I'm glad Nolan did not disappoint.
The story and plot of the film is really well written and though obviously the scientific part is not perfect it is very close (probably due to the fact Nolan worked with Dr. Kip Thorne for advice) and it's not like I'm in any qualifications to say what's right and wrong.
The visual effects were probably the best I've seen ever. I'd say Avatar falls behind, just because it perfectly showed how big everything was. I was only watching this on a laptop but I could feel the immensity of the waves on Miller's planet which has never happened to me before. It really made you invested and I was on the edge of my toes because it felt like I was really there. And even everything else was so beautiful.
The acting was amazing. I'd seen a gif of McConaughey crying before and thought, "oh, someone must have died" but then I watched it and it instead it was him crying because he'd missed 23 years of his kid's lives? That hurt. And it was a great plot twist too.
The music was by Hand Zimmer of course so naturally it was fantastic. Very 'space-y' vibes going on.
I will say at the end when it turned out Cooper was basically going back in time, I will admit, I didn't like it too much because everything else felt realistic enough but time travel not so much. But it was still a really good ending.
Personally, Interstellar is wonderful but it definitely is my least favourite Nolan movie so far (which doesn't mean anything bad because it was amazing just that the others were somehow even more amazing).
Very happy with this film, definitely recommend. 9.5/10
