Synonym of "Genius"

Rating: 10/10 (15 November 2014)

The most suitable synonym of "Genius" is ‪"Christopher Nolan‬" ... after churning out gems like "The Prestige", the Dark Knight trilogy and "Inception" ... he throws in yet another conceptual Masterpiece in the form of "Interstellar". For me, if "Inception" was Gold, then "Interstellar" is Platinum. This probably is the most mature concept Nolan has ever pitched and considering the wonders he has created earlier, this is not a small statement.
Some people might feel that the pace of the movie is too slow...but the movie would've lost all its magic if the concept was not unfolded in the layers and episodes as Nolan has managed to do. Such powerful plot transpires in such majestic manner that you get absorbed into the "wormhole" between your real world and the world so spectacularly created by Nolan.
casting ‪‎Matthew Mconaughey‬ in the lead is a masterstroke in its own self. Such restrain and such depth with which he portrays the character of Cooper, is exemplary. He conquered the world with his act in ‪"Dallas Buyer's Club"‬ .. and he conquers many worlds beyond ours in this visual splendor of a movie. He is very ably supported by ‪Anne Hathaway‬ who pitches in one her strongest performances ever. Michael Cane, Casey Afleck and Mat Damon add to the authenticity and accuracy.
The movie will definitely be a torture for those who feel comfortable in conventional scripts and high-octane screenplays... as just like Nolan's earlier works, this movie asks questions but doesn't give answers directly. The answers are scattered like jigsaw pieces and the viewer is provoked to find these pieces and join them together to come up with the final picture. The key is ... if you didn't like Inception... then don't bother going for this one as well
In a nutshell, this is one of the most extraordinary movies I have seen in many years. I couldn't ask for a better treat over the weekend. The only confusion for me after watching the movie is ... What will Nolan do to surpass this... how can he come up with a concept richer and stronger than this... but then ... this was the same confusion I had in mind when I finished watching "Inception"
Rating ... a whooping 10/10 (cant find a single reason to reduce even a decimal from the rating)
