Life Changing

Rating: 10/10 (7 December 2014)

This film was, as the title puts it, out of this world. As a teen of a mere 16 years I haven't been able to see all the films out there, but this film changed my life for good. From the minute the movie starts you could feel that this was something different. You get a feeling that is drastically different to that of other sci-fi movies or space films, like Gravity or the Transformers series. The whole atmosphere is more real and accurate than anything I've seen out there. Christopher Nolan is known for doing this- creating his films so, that you can believe that it could happen somewhere on Earth at this moment. Like The Dark Knight trilogy, Nolan brings this sense of realism across very effectively.
Another feature that makes this film different to others is the way it keeps the audience on the edge of their seats the whole ride. From the opening scene to the final moments I sat in the cinema with my heartbeat up high.
Not to mention the soundtrack- Hans Zimmer created a spine-tingling and goose-bump-causing score that possibly trumps anything he has ever composed.
All in all, this is a breath-taking film that deserves to win Best Picture in 2015.
