Interstellar was a great film with incredible acting and cinematography that will keep you on the edge of your seat.

Rating: 10/10 (8 October 2015)

The movie Interstellar, directed by Christopher Nolen, is about future earth. Where the planet is getting too hot and too dry to survive. An engineer (Mathew McConaughey) is then sent on a mission to space to find another planet that could possibly support human life and thereby save the people of earth. After a long journey in space and time, he visits three candidate planets and manages to find the key to saving planet earth. The movie is both compelling and entertaining, with an interesting plot that is well acted. Interstellar's credits include many from Hollywood's "a-list" of actors and actresses, such as Mathew McConaughey as Cooper, Matt Damon as Mann, and Anne Hathaway and Jessica Chastain as Brand and Murph. Cooper is the main character, being the engineer that is sent to space on the mission to save the world. While Murph is his daughter, who is desperately waiting for the return of her father back home. Mathew McConaughey and Jessica Chastain do an incredible job of establishing a close father daughter relationship between Murph and Cooper in the film. Excellent direction by Christopher Nolen shows through in this visually stunning movie that relies on significant special affects, as over half the film is set in space. The movie includes multiple planets that were created with computer animation and other special effects. It is clear throughout the movie that Nolen not only created an impressive looking film, but he also did well in fitting the actors to their roles. Ultimately, Nolen made an excellent film that is both intriguing and filled with action. The combination of a fascinating setting and backdrop with a compelling storyline causes the film to hold the interest of the audience. The film takes place on the future earth that is burning beyond survival and extends all the way to worm holes in outer space. The other planets that were visited each had an extreme weather condition. These were shown in the film as very diverse landscapes and conditions such as: extreme cold, enormous waves, mountains of ice, and completely water covered. Cooper visits each place as the search is on to find a place that can support the future of mankind. I would recommend this movie because it is an interesting story that is filled with action, as well as impressive special effects that feel realistic and scientifically plausible. Although these events were fictional, the movie is very well made and directed such that the events of the movie seem believable and certainly exciting to watch.
