When you see Interstellar, forget what you know about science, and get ready for some preaching about taking care of our planet. I’m giving Interstellar a C-. While the cinematography is gorgeous, there’s something wrong when your favorite character is the robots! In the future, the Earth is dying. Dust storms and blight have forced everyone to make a living farming in order to have enough food to eat. History has been rewritten, but a secret NASA project hopes to save the human race. Cooper, former astronaut, must lead an expedition to find a new suitable planet for people to live on. Everyone in this movie has an agenda. Lies abound. Even with the star power of Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Matt Damon, and Michael Caine, the movie’s plot had too many impossibilities. And I had a hard time getting past seeing Matt Damon. All I kept thinking of was the part from Team America- “I’m Matt Damon.” Go rewatch a classic like 2001: A Space Odyssey, or wait until this movie comes out on DVD rather than spending the money for it at the theater. |
