Enjoyable, Recommend

Rating: 8/10 (12 February 2015)

Matthew McConaughey and Jessica Chastain (Old Murphy) did a phenomenal job in their acting roles, the rest were mediocre. Anne Hathaway usually has decent acting but it just did not feel right on this one. Matt Damon's role felt out of place and wasn't needed in my opinion - his acting wasn't necessarily bad, but his given lines were.
The plot is very interesting and if you're into space, you will enjoy this movie no matter other considerations. That said, with something to nitpick, it starts off slow. I don't know the reasoning behind the daughter and son having a bad relationship - I feel like it took away from the movie to have this unnecessary squabble. And to have that along with the girl (Murphy) throwing fits and trying to have this "touching" moment with her dad felt fake. You could jump to when "Cooper" gets into space and not miss anything.
There's some annoying things worth pointing out like the mumbling in the movie - Nolan says it was on purpose but I find that hard to believe - but at least it improves as the movie goes on. Another thing is the explanations in the movies felt forced - they didn't happen as naturally as they could have.
One last personal-nitpick, we could have done with a better robot (TARS) - even tho we are in the future in this movie, the robot felt too "magical" - it moved like a cartoon so it takes you away from the immersion sometimes.
That said, recommend this movie and will watch again in the future.
