hoosierbass07 Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Last night I watched the film Interstellar. I remember seeing trailers for this early in 2014. They played this movie up like it was going to be some kind of major epic save the earth/go to space movie with an important message. After watching this film here is what I think - boring! The actors were all wrong, the script was boring, the cinematography was boring, the action was lame and not very intense. I get the feeling they tried to make a modern 2001 A Space Odyssey or something along those lines. McConaughey is a good actor but not in this film. Anne Hathaway was irritating and not likable. OK, it was not horrible. But it sure is not great and not above average. There are a lot of good movies that I would be willing to see again but not this film. from 0 to 5 stars = 2.60. Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 9, 2015 Super User Posted April 9, 2015 I liked it. It was better than 90% of the movies I've watched in the past year. I see around 5 per week. I do happen to like scifi though. Quote
Super User Redlinerobert Posted April 9, 2015 Super User Posted April 9, 2015 I thought it was amazing. They managed to show how a dual or multi reality could actually play out, or the fact that there are more dimensions than we are able to perceive. Fascinating. Quote
Chief 2 Posted April 9, 2015 Posted April 9, 2015 Worst movie I have seen in a long time. Very confusing at times! Quote
hoosierbass07 Posted April 11, 2015 Author Posted April 11, 2015 They had a super robot and a space ship that could land on a planet, get hit with a big water wave, take off again, and fly by a black hole, and yet they can't fix their own environment? 1 Quote
RSM789 Posted April 11, 2015 Posted April 11, 2015 I was okay with it, didn't dislike it but wasn't hoping there would be a sequel when it was over. My wife was totally lost watching it, she was making the same face she used to make when we would watch X-Files together. Quote

I thought "Avatar" had a similar plot hole. They fly to a distant planet, live in a hostile environment, are able to sync humans with avatars to interact with the natives, but when it comes to getting minerals out of the ground, they still have to destroy the environment. Couldn't they have invented some way to suck the Unobtanium out of the ground without disturbing anything else? Quote
Super User J Francho Posted April 11, 2015 Super User Posted April 11, 2015 We landed on the moon, yet I still have to fill out forms at the DMV. Talk about a plot hole! 2 Quote
bassinOUT89 Posted April 13, 2015 Posted April 13, 2015 In my opinion it was a decent movie. I've definetly seen worse. It kept me intrigued, a lot of it was hard to imagine. Probably wouldnt watch it again though. 1 Quote
Super User FishTank Posted April 14, 2015 Super User Posted April 14, 2015 Loved this movie. I thought it was one of the best sci-fi flicks I have seen in quite awhile with some real (theoretical) science behind it. I think this type of film you can expect from Christopher Nolan. He leaves holes in the subplots and a lot of what if's in his films. With my wife being a teacher, I loved the line "You're telling me it takes two numbers to measure your a** but only one to measure my sons future?" Kind of liked this one as well, "We've always defined ourselves by the ability to overcome the impossible. And we count these moments. These moments when we dare to aim higher, to break barriers, to reach for the stars, to make the unknown known. We count these moments as our proudest achievements. But we lost all that. Or perhaps we've just forgotten that we are still pioneers. And we've barely begun. And that our greatest accomplishments cannot be behind us, because our destiny lies above us." Quote
