The 2001: A Space Odyssey of our Time

Rating: 10/10 (2 January 2015)

I won't go into spoiler territory about this movie, because you have to see it. I thought "Interstellar" is a wonderful movie, and I do wish if I ever saw this movie in IMAX but seeing it in a regular theater was better than nothing. I hope I get to see the IMAX footage, once it comes to DVD and Blu Ray. So, with that said, I thought Christopher Nolan does a fantastic job on directing the movie as well as writing it with his brother Jonathan Nolan. The special effects in this movie are breathtaking with the use of its mixture of practical and CGI effects. Hans Zimmer's music is really wonderful, and there were parts of the music where it does make you think of the music in Stanley Kubrick's "2001: A Space Odyssey." The cinematography is so beautifully well shot, and I thought the cast did great. Matthew McConaughey does a great job as the main lead, while Anne Hathaway; Jessica Chastain; Mackenzie Foy and Michael Caine were all great in their own roles. The movie is also very well paced, and the movie does have that sort of realism where you can realize on what space is like besides another great movie about space, and that movie is of course "Gravity." I will admit that the ending was weak, but its by no means terrible or anything spectacular; it just is for what it is. "Interstellar" is definitely a work of art, and this is the "2001: A Space Odyssey" of our time. I highly recommend this movie, and it is definitely a must see! I don't know what is my number one favorite movie of 2014, but I know that "Interstellar" is really on my best films of 2014 list. If you don't like this movie, I will respect that but I just couldn't help myself on how wonderful "Interstellar" really is, and really do wish if I ever see this movie in IMAX. I could be surprise if they reissue this movie back in to theaters and IMAX for another viewing. So, that is all I got to say about "Interstellar" and I give this movie a 10 out of 10. Really love this movie!
