A Beautiful movie

Rating: 8/10 (6 September 2018)

Just for sake, this is not a completely positive review.
As much as I love Christopher Nolan's works, I cannot say that Interstellar is his best movie. It's nowhere near a masterpiece film as was The Dark Knight. The Dark Knight and Inception had succeeded in making us understand ourselves better and the true nature of humanity.
Interstellar may not do that, but Interstellar does one thing that I feel not many other cinemas have done. It INSPIRES. When i watched Interstellar I was left in awe at the vast glory and beauty of outer space. The ultimate darkness and his mind blowing cinematography. The directing was beautiful, there were not any moments in the movie where I felt the scenes were too long or too short. This movie truly is one of those movies like Jurassic Park where you are left in awe and wonder.
What left me completely struck though was the fact that this movie is centralized around the relationship of a father and daughter. I found this concept incredibly smart and beautiful. The music itself is one of the best movie scores of the decade. It captures the emotions incredibly well and I believe that Interstellar is by far one of the best movies I've seen.
However, this movie does lack in one place particularly where I thought broke this movie completely from becoming a masterpiece.
The pacing.
And I mean it, the pacing is poor for Nolan's standards. The movie's sequence of events felt like you were on a road trip and that each planet was a stop for gasoline. Too much time was spent developing Cooper and Murphy as characters in the beginning and little time was spent developing Dr. Brand and the other astronauts. Although the movie centralizes around the father and daughter I felt that some of the other characters weren't given enough importance. There were also a few plot holes in the movie as considering to Dr. Mann's behavior. I feel like that since one hour of the movie was practically spent on Earth developing the father daughter relationship alot of plotholes later on in the movie formed. This really kinda turned down the movie on me and I exited the cinema slightly confused but still struck in awe.
The truth is, that even though Interstellar has problems, I don't deny that it truly is a spectacular movie. In modern cinema, I only ever really feel like that Nolan's cinemas have hit the mark of true film making as most other movies coming out nowadays are cheap and full of CGI.
But Interstellar truly was inspiring and an awesome experience. I will say that the movie is slightly confusing as many things are unexplained, but it doesn't mean that Interstellar is a bad movie. Me personally I'd rate this movie an 8.4/10 but I can tell you. Watch this movie if you haven't.
