Interstellar – movie review

PROS:

A few moments of humor.

Some interesting visuals of the planets and the robots.

Interesting scifi concepts that don’t get much screen time, such as time dilation.

CONS:

Too much plot information is told to us, not shown to us.

The story is unclear. More than once I was confused by what was happening and why.

The ending isn’t a surprise and isn’t ingenious.

It was an hour and a half worth of plot stretched into a nearly 3 hour saga.

Performances are flat to downright silly. Matt Damon doesn’t seem to even be trying.

Closing Comment:

If you’re a scifi nerd, you’ll probably enjoy the movie for that.

If you’ve never read a half-way decent time-travel/space-travel story, you’ll probably even think it’s original.

Stay in the Know.
