Interstellar plays with the mind and the heart

Rating: 10/10 (9 November 2014)

I walked in to interstellar and for the first time in a good while,I truly didn't know what to expect from the film. I am a big fan of Nolan's work and I had been waiting for months to see this film in full VIP and i must say i was worried, with the over-hyping that tends to surround big films, that i would be disappointed.
I couldn't have been more wrong about this film it made me laugh, jump out of my seat and even made me cry. There where points where I could literally feel my jaw drop.
The visuals where absolutely breathtaking, the music was fantastic , actors performances strong and the story was gripping with twists only Nolan could pull off.
Interstellar isn't without its faults but its refreshing to see a film try something new and exiting in what seems to be the age of corny remakes and prequels. This movie took the cinema experience to a whole new level and had me pondering my existence by the end.
Interstellar could prove itself to be the modern 2001: A Space odyssey, a film thats influences can be deeply felt throughout the film but while 2001 can be seen as more religious experience interstellar tackles the more human aspects of humanity's endeavors and existence in space.
Overall this film is a must see in a full cinema experience and as much as I now await the DVD release(if i don't find myself back in the cinema to see it again) part of me knows it just wont be the same.
