Everything great Sci Fi should be... A Masterpiece.

Rating: 10/10 (11 May 2015)

I saw a film tonight, and what a film. Sci Fi would be my absolute favourite genre, and this is easily the best of that genre, as well as being one of the best films I have ever seen. I was literally speechless when the credits rolled. (I selected some great films to watch this week) The dialogue and the science of the film are fantastic, and I was captivated from the beginning. The cast were all excellent with Matthew McConaughey adding yet another brilliant performance to his ever growing list.. Perhaps the best performance of all was that of Hans Zimmer, maybe one of the composers best soundtracks yet. (from his ever growing list) The music really draws you into this movie and in moments nearly brings tears to your eyes...
The effects of the movie were mind blowing, and real models were used for the spacecraft's giving it more authenticity and depth.
The film is very much influenced by 2001 A Space Odyssey and as such, has generated a bit of hatred for the film, with people saying it goes too spiritual, but I do not fathom that for a second, rather I think many people just couldn't take it all in and understand it...
Overall: Its AMAZING. Jump at it!
Comparatively, other movies I rated the full 10; Akira, Open your eyes, Malèna, Whiplash, The Fall, The SKin I live in....
