Interstellar(2014) Starring:Matthew McConaughey,Anne Hathaway,Jessica Chastain,Michael Caine,Casey Affleck, Ellen Burstyn,Matt Damon,John Lithgow,Timothee Chalamet,Mackenzie Foy,Wes Bentley,Bill Irwin and Topher Grace Directed By:Christopher Nolan Review MANKIND WAS BORN ON EARTH. IT WAS NEVER MEANT TO DIE HERE. Let's travel to a parallel world in the new film Star Trek I mean Interstellar. But seriously what's the damn difference,this movie is about space exploration for an inhabitable world and Star Trek is just still space exploration. The film is about a group of explorers who make use of a newly discovered wormhole to surpass the limitations on human space travel and conquer the vast distances involved in an interstellar voyage. I honestly could not tell you if this film achieved it's goal or not because I'm not sure if it's trying to be fun or just something else. It tries to be a serious exciting adventure into space so I am going to go with it trying to be fun,but in which case it isn't. I was so bored during this movie. The film is way too long they could have finished it sooner but decide not too and it just makes that much harder to sit through. The story is not that interesting,with it's theme being about you know take care of the earth which we've seen to death in some better movies. The film is getting massive talks for reasons I don't know but I'm going to go with the venturing through space and it's awesome CGI which a film does not make. The performances from the film are solid even from actors who I don't find too be great but just OK(Topher Grace). The standouts however are Michael Caine,Jessica Chastain and Anne Hathaway.They were my favorite part of the movie as for everything else,I just found to be boring. The direction from Christopher Nolan this time around is not all that great,he gets good performances out of his actors OK but he always does. The problem was the shots and worst of all I saw lens flares,is he turning into J.J Abrhams. The only worthwhile point from the movie is what I had just mentioned earlier,it's about taking care of our planet,but like I've said we have better films then this for that. The movie is also way too long,i did find a problem with it's pacing everything feels slow. I believe it's because Nolan wants us to take in everything were seeing on screen. The elements of a good film are not here much,it has great Cgi and some good acting but that's about it. I didn't care for the characters and I wasn't invested in anything that was going on, I'm giving Interstellar a two out of five.
