Great in many ways, lacking in some.

Rating: 9/10 (28 December 2014)

Nolan is without doubt one of the greater directors of our time, and as such this film was highly lauded by many a reviewer, which is why I myself went to watch it. I agree with many that it was a great film, the soundtrack and the visual effects simply and irrefutably astounding and mixed to perfection. The acting, too, was superb by all the great stars that played in this film. No complaints from me there, and even the much debated scientific arena that this sci-fi movie plays in was very accurate, especially considering that most of them are theories, and to top it off this is a movie, so of course the directer will make some professional leeway to fit his needs.
In any case the grandest flaw of this movie was the end, with all it's sappy Hollywood touch. For me Coop should have never survived the breaking down of the bookcase dimension, and should have been obliterated after touching Brand's hand. As was referenced to many a time, by Brand, Humans were never built to become 5th dimensional. My interpretation of the bookcase dimension is that it wasn't created by other beings, but by Coop himself, or rather the love and the bond he shared with Murph. This being done by the last thoughts being of his Children, which is something that Dr. Mann brought up; Coops survival instinct. TARS also being in this dimension felt to me wrong and intrusive, especially as he is a machine with no true emotion.
In any case, the happy end, I feel at least, is a mockery of the sacrifice that Coop and TARS made. A poor decision on Nolan's part. But, even despite that big and major flaw the movie was a good movie in that it brought over the message that Nolan meant to communicate to us. 9/10
