The reviewers I trust have said it's pretty stupid, but entertaining. That, to me, means waiting till it comes out on video, I have beer, and my standards aren't so high. I think Nolan makes very pretty movies that cover up a lot of fundamental flaws, and this one seems to be that sort of film. View Quote Holy shit! Dont wait for video. Get thee to the nearest true IMAX and see it. This is this generation's Avatar or 2001. It must be seen on a big ass screen. Worth it for the beautiful visuals alone! |

Kinda jumped the shark a bit near the end and made me , but overall I really enjoyed it. It was beautifully shot.

Just got home from seeing it. I really enjoyed it. It's not going to change your life or anything, but I think anyone who appreciates film as an art should see it in IMAX. I wish I were still 18 and had no responsibilities because it would probably be pretty intense to watch on acid.
Edit: and NO IT IS NOT AN ENVIRONMENTALIST FILM |

There were definitely a handful of derps, maybe sack full, and I'm not a fan of the McConaughey drawl, but overall it was a good flick. Visually stunning, and a supremely awesome soundtrack. Nolan combined Contact, Gravity, Jurassic Park, Space Odyssey, and a Van Gogh painting all into one 3 hour movie

It was good. If I ignore the extremely bad science... it had a great story. Very remenicent of 2001 in terms of theme.

Just saw it last night on Imax. Very good movie. I think worth the hype it is getting

So if I ignore the cringe inducing orbital maneuvers and magical ships capable of quickly attaining near light speed travel without turning the crew to goo in some instances but needed a Saturn V to get off earth for some reason... and just focus on the story and how it was told. It was pretty dang good. Someone really really needed to get the screen writers a copy of Kerbal Space Program... |

It's a nod to the idea that if you actually did have, construct, or find a wormhole, you have no clue where the other "end" of it is, or where the multiple "ends" wind up. I do agree that leapfrogging the idea of it being in our galaxy and instead being in some completely different one is not really needed. I guess the idea is to drive home how "alone" they are, that for audiences who don't really grasp the idea of interstellar distances on a gut level, the psychological isolation as a plot device is just that much greater. Hell the wormhole could have come out at Alpha Centuri, or Tau Ceti or something "close" but if the mission goes wrong, or they can't get back to Earth/Sol System through the wormhole they might as well be in a different galaxy, but I think the idea of a galaxy being impossibly big by itself, and taking thousands of times more than human history to cross... that well has been poisoned by too much Star Trek/Star Wars-ish fiction, where "the galaxy" becomes a stand in for a planet, as a "region" with competing empires or "countries" etc. |

Quoted: IMAX here cost $13 View Quote It's $16 here, and I see movies with my wife or daughter. That assumes we eat nothing, and I'm over $30 just to sit there. Again, it looks like an entertaining movie, but already the reviews coming in talk of the cheese, goofy science and worn-out tropes. I can do better for my entertainment dollar, that's all. I'll see it, may even like it, but it'll be cheap when I do.

It has no climate change bs or any environmentalism bs in it.
They just used the dust bowl type events as the impetus for going offworld. It was a good movie. Worth seeing. |

I think I'll drive the 50 miles east and see this with the wife. I'll get the movie and she'll get the new Pandora store in the mall. We'll grab a bite at PFChangs. Sounds like a good date. Just need a babysitter....

If you don't see this movie in IMAX, don't see it. Such a visually stunning movie. Ending was real retarded.
Edit: More things I thought of. Is Matt Damon on the Val Kilmer Diet? Ending wasn't that retarded. The movie was so good up to that point where they left the ice planet. Plus, it's the near future in the movie and they were using those robots? Robots were a needed comic relief, I guess.

That's why it's a general gripe and not specific to this movie exactly. It's just unnecessary to go to another galaxy when there is so much room for mystery and story right here inside the galaxy. In this case ... with a wormhole... it exiting in our galaxy... or another or 100 galaxies over... or even between galaxies is just as likely. My problem is with the decision of the writers to make it come out in another galaxy. View Quote View All Quotes View All Quotes Quoted:
