Go see it, you won't be disappointed.

Rating: 9/10 (29 November 2014)

I loved this movie and you will too. Yes, it takes some liberties with real science, especially travel into black holes, but so what; it's science fiction after all. And it also flirts with the time traveler's paradox, but again so what. The robots are cool, not homicidal and not tin-man knockoffs of Homo Sapiens, they make you think of Gumby with a personality. The special effects are outstanding too, whether catching a planet-wide tidal wave on a water-world, sideswiping ice clouds on a frozen planet, or trying to dock with a space station spinning out of control. Yes, Matt Damon is in it, but why cast an A-list actor for 15 or 20 minutes of screen time in a role that any competent actor could handle and not make you wonder what he's doing here anyway? And yes, it's long but it has an epic sweep to cover with plot lines going on in several different places at once. But most of all if you appreciate what Matt McConaughey has been bringing to his roles lately, like in Mud and Dallas Buyer's Club, then you've gotta see this one. I give it nine stars, only withholding the tenth because of a plot twist that caused me to un-suspend my disbelief.
