Interstellar-Movie Review
“Interstellar,” Christopher Nolan’s latest film, follows a team of explorers who travel beyond the galaxy through a wormhole on an important mission to save the Earth. Mathew McConaughey plays the protagonist, Cooper, and he is a space pilot who volunteers to help NASA with a crew of engineers.
The movie shows how time can change drastically in different galaxies, as it involves Albert Einstein’s Law of Relativity in a way that’s never been seen in a movie before. As they enter a different galaxy through a wormhole, a three dimensional portal in outer space that is accessible in any direction, they are basically shot across the universe into a different galaxy. One hour in that galaxy is seven years on Earth, which adds tons of suspense.
“Interstellar” was like a trip down the rabbit hole. There was never a single dull moment in the film. The overall plot was simple but it was full of details. They speak on Relativity, Gravity, Newton’s equations, Quantum Electrodynamics, and even love. The best scientists use their imaginations, and that’s exactly what happens throughout “Interstellar,” as they attempt to accomplish the impossible.
It may be confusing to some at certain points, but many things can be learned about science and the universe. “Interstellar” involves situations that must be accomplished for the future of humanity and certain characters. The characters follow scientific laws to achieve these goals, but they also follow their own curiosity, which is just as important.
I recommend “Interstellar” for everybody. It may have been Christopher Nolan’s best film yet, and I won’t be surprised if it’s nominated for best picture at the Oscars. The acting was great and the storyline was everywhere, complex, and even surreal at some points. It’s basic, but the story almost feels like it’s following a non-linear storyline due to how many points in the film are scattered everywhere, actually messing with time in a confusing way, but it’s easy to follow and understand the current circumstance. It reminds me of Stanley Kubrick’s “2001 A Space Odyssey,” and even some of the camera angles are similar. The screenplay was written brilliantly, and though there are a few plot holes, “Interstellar” doesn’t disappoint.
