Interstellar Movie Reviews

Out of this world

A lot has been said and written about Interstellar. You can obviously take apart any movie that is out there. You’ll either love this one or you won’t. I kind of would have loved to have watched this on an IMAX screen, the sheer scope of the whole thing. It’s just amazing, what Nolan has put on screen here. It’s not only the visual experience (there is no 3D here by the way), it’s the story/ride you take with it. It might be clear to some earlier than to others, where it’s heading (no pun intended), but it doesn’t change the fact that it’s beautiful … and terrifying at the same time.

Going out and saying this will be considered a classic, might not be too far stretched, but you still can never predict those things. The deserved love the movie gets on IMDb and other places would be an indicator that this will ring true though. The acting is really good, but I can understand if some people have issues with the ending. But the movie had to end in one way or another. It’s the best possible way this could go, even if it’s not in our grasps just yet …

A visual and auditory marvel

Interstellar is a movie like no other. Unlike many apocalyptic sci-fi films that feature advanced technology as the source of our destruction (ala The Terminator movies), it instead asserts that technology will save us.

Not everyone in Interstellar recognizes the potential of advanced technology. Most dismiss it as a waste of time and resources, and not just old curmudgeons feel this way. Thoughtful, intelligent young characters share this sentiment. This belief gained steam following a world-wide blight that wiped out the vast majority of life on earth—crops and humans.

Farming became paramount while advanced technology was deemed frivolous. Cooper (McConaughey) remains one of the few survivors who still appreciates the need for engineering. He feels like a man lost in time, until he stumbles into the headquarters of NASA (which had been operating in secret due to public disapproval). Here he meets others who realize that a return to our old ways is unsustainable and will ultimately lead to our demise. We need technology to save us. As Michael Caine, playing the brilliant (duh!) Professor Brand, eloquently tells Cooper, “we were never meant to save the world. We were meant to leave it.” For a movie that won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects (and deservedly so) the sound stole the show. Hans Zimmer (Dark Knight Trilogy) unleashed a performance that was, quite appropriately, out of this world. Never have I seen a movie elevated so much by its score. The sound literally took my breath away. Forgive me for the next paragraph. I will gush irresponsibly about the magic that is this movie’s sound. Skip it if you please. You have your warning.

The music fueled every important scene. In every meaningful moment Zimmer’s harmonies captivated watchers’ attention in the way of a coach commanding a locker room with a pregame speech. The music elucidated those emotional scenes, particularly ones featuring Cooper and his daughter, in a way that no words or visual ques possibly could. I sat frozen, jaw agape, with tears pouring down my cheeks as the music completely overwhelmed my emotions. The sound penetrated my soul and reverberated through my body, flowing to my appendages, supplying me with life like a heartbeat pumping blood through my veins. The music was truly the life force of movie.

Yes, we all witnessed a visual triumph, a daring creative wonder the likes of which we haven’t encountered since Inception. Yes, nearly every actor’s performance proved worthy of commendation. McConaughey is on fire. Chastain is blossoming into a star. At this point Michael Cain exudes such knowledge and wisdom by merely appearing on screen that if he were cast as Albert Einstein, people would wonder if the role were beneath him. All this considered, and the sound still towered over everything.

I walked out of the theater believing that I had experienced something unique, something truly special. Interstellar inspires, it awes, and above all it entertains. I cannot ask for more than that.

Why tack on an ending where everything works out perfectly?!

The first 80-90% of “Interstellar” I absolutely loved and was prepared to give this movie a 10. Sadly, the ending inexplicably had an ending that didn’t make a lot of sense and only seemed there in order to tack on a nice Hollywood ending and wrap everything up perfectly. It’s sad, but apparently the public embraced this sort of ending…so who am I to complain?!

As for the film, there are a bazillion reviews so I will be brief. The film has incredible special effects and is a film best seen in the movie theater. On a HUGE screen at home, it would still lose something. Like the wonderful “Gravity”, it just needs the big screen…trust me with this. The story is exceptional and offers many wonderful twists (up until the disappointing ending that is) and there are a lot of wonderful performances. Overall, the good certainly outweighs the bad and it’s a film to see. But as for me, an ending with more sadness and vagueness would have been okay.
