Underwhelming and at the best okay.

Rating: 5/10 (18 October 2015)

I went into this film expecting great things, especially with Christopher Nolan's film Inception being one of the best films put to screen in recent years it's just a shame that it felt like someone filmed a glacier. You watch on in awe of the visuals before you and the way it's been filmed draws you into the people there and you wonder what it would be like to see what they did for yourself. However with the lovely scenery and the brilliant score your friend had made for the home movie you forget that it's just a glacier. It may be huge but it's moving really slowly, at at times you feel like you didn't have to actually watch parts of the film because you know you wouldn't miss anything. Then once it finally pushes its way to where it is heading bits of it begin to fall off, the ending is interesting but eventually the initial feeling just melts away into a large pool of cold and clear water.The closest film that I could possibly compare this to is perhaps 2001:A Space Odyssey, but I feel as though I actually got something out of watching 2001, where as with Interstellar it just felt empty. Despite this, I think it's a must watch for fans of space, science, and scale.
