Amazingly beautiful, emotional and compelling

Rating: 9/10 (15 November 2014)

Firstly, this film to put it simply is beautiful, the visuals in this movie are spectacular and truly amazing at all times. As well as being impressive visually, it is also an emotional story exploring father-daughter relationships that really gets the audience invested in the characters and gets them to really feel what the characters themselves are going through at different stages of this film. Plot wise the film is very strong and compelling right from the very beginning to the final seconds, being a Christopher Nolan film. Now to the negatives because it is not a perfect film, i think one thing that it suffered from was asking a lot of the audience. There are times in this film where lots of information is being thrown at the audience and at times it is almost too much to try to understand what just happened and pay attention to what is happening now. Also I feel that the film was a little too long and around 20 minutes could have been cut out from the middle without losing a whole lot of information. So in the end Interstellar is another fantastically beautiful, emotional and compelling work by Nolan that slightly suffers in runtime and quite a bit of exposition.
