Good But Confusing

Rating: 7/10 (6 November 2014)

Overall I enjoyed "Interstellar" but left the theater with major plot holes running through my head. Matthew McConaughey mumbled a bit so I lost a lot of his dialog. The soundtrack made great use of pipe organ music which reminded me of "Thus Spake Zarathustra" from "2001: A Space Odyssey." This may have been deliberate. Another feature from "2001" was the confusing, metaphysical ending.
MAJOR SPOILERS AHEAD
Cooper passes out in some sort of 5th dimension and wakes up in a hospital bed. His daughter, who is now elderly and near death, is responsible for saving humanity. The human race lives in a space wheel (like in "Elysium") orbiting Saturn. Why not orbiting Earth? And HOW was Cooper's daughter responsible for this? Did these trips through the wormhole really accomplish anything?
Maybe other people in the audience caught something I missed or couldn't wrap my brain around. A group of people were discussing the movie in the lobby when I left.
In closing, "Interstellar" is worth your time and money. There really weren't any times when the movie lagged. It starts out at a moderate pace and doesn't let up. Be prepared to pay attention and think.
