Interstellar is Out of this world!

Rating: 9/10 (22 January 2020)

Interstellar is a fascinating film that makes you think about this world, but also question everything you know about reality. The film provides mesmerizing yet realistic displays and realistic to depict a world that could be in our near future. Mathew McConaughey's performance this a must watch Sci Fi thriller.
The film starts with the setting of a somewhat dystopian future where the world is running out of food and dust storms are raging across the globe, and with what appears to be elderly Dust Bowl survivors of 1930 talking about their experiences . To flipping over plates to keep the dust off and wearing masks to protect them from the awful dust that is slowly suffocating everyone on earth. Food is the real problem: corn is the only farmable crop in these dusty, dry conditions. But how long until can they farm? Are they doomed to die on Earth as it continues to get worse and worse?
We are soon introduced to our main character, Coop (Matthew McConaughey) who used to work for NASA, his daughter Murph (Mackenzie Foy), his son Tom (TimothÃ©e Chalamet) and finally his deceased wife's dad, Donald (John Lithgow). Coop dreams of flying a spacecraft but believes he was born 40 years too late and 40 years too early as Coop had flown for NASA many years ago, before it was disgraced for faking the moon landings to trick the Soviets into bankruptcy But had instead just gone underground, and we're working on a plan to save humanity. By sending people to space. Coop now is the only remaining experienced pilot, and NASA need him But he must make a choice: either try yet leave his Family behind, likely to never see them again. Or stay with his family likely dooming humanity to starvation, Is Humanity Doomed or will they be saved by Coop?
Interstellar was written and directed by the fantastic director Christopher Nolan who unsurprisingly directed great films like Dunkirk in 2017 (that is known for its amazing cinematography) and The Dark Knight in 2008 (known for fantastic plot). He can write a great story. Composed by the brilliant Hans Zimmer who also Composed for the Lion King (1994) and Inception (2017). The music allowed for the story to drip with emotion making the soundtrack alone an intense thriller that will shake you to your core.Despite the script being such as the line about how love connects everyone throughout dimensions, it is still a very enjoyable experience. There was a great deal of computer simulation to create eye dropping ranges of color and spectacles of scale that are sometimes hard to comprehend how they could exist. The cinematography was also fantastic making it feel like another world at times, like your exploring a vast, empty world. Similar to the first Star Wars film A New Hope (1977), that capture the magic of space by showcasing the emptiness and scale of the galaxy and even the sounds of space.
Still, I feel like it didn't answer enough questions. Sci fi needs to seem realistic. This game changing "worm hole" was placed near us to save us, why not put right outside of earth? Another problem with the film was the sound mix at times especially from Mathew McConaughey as their were scenes I couldn't understand a word he was saying only for the scene to be saved by subtitles while watching the film at home, making me desire for some reshoots as the clever audio sometimes doesn't get to shine as much as it could due to the overbearing music that dwarfs an intense scene because it doesn't allow for these actors performances to be shown at their full potential and rather sounds like it's behind an iron door, they have an amazing sound selection for the film but the snipping and audio levels sometimes ruin it completely due to some simple audio problems that could easily be fixed with basic editing.
Despite Its flaws, I love this film. I would recommend this those who love a good Sci Fi like Star Wars, Star Trek, or 2001's Space Odyssey. They all including Interstellar capture that sci fi space magic that captures the wonder of all sci fi lovers who are curious of what the future holds. But don't forget to set your watch to the future! Highly Recommended! 9 Stars out of 10!
