A Flawed Masterpiece

Rating: 9/10 (2 April 2015)

"Interstellar" is Christopher Nolan's most ambitious film thus far. It is visually breathtaking, emotionally riveting, heart pounding, heartwarming, and obviously very thought provoking. At its core is a touching story about a father and his daughter. It's what drives the film. It is a film in which going to the bathroom is not an option. You will be entirely entertained and captivated for the entirety of the film. It is his most brainy film to date, and will require multiple viewings. The odd yet fantastic ending will leave your head spinning and wanting more. If possible watch in IMAX. It's an experience I will never forget. I felt like I went on an emotional journey with the characters and with the audience. Afterwards, people stood outside the theater in several groups discussing the film and it's themes. That, to me, is what movies are all about. Chris Nolan's ninth film is not perfect by any means, but it's flaws and emotional core make it a beautiful masterpiece.
