Interstellar (2014) 7/10

Starring : Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, Michael Caine
Director : Christopher Nolan
Running Time : 170 mins

Former pilot Joseph Cooper (McConaughey) is convinced that the so-called ghost that is haunting his daughter’s room as unknown intelligence providing co-ordinates that lead them to s secret building housing what’s left of NASA. Copper is then invited to join the crew of the Endurance who plan to travel past Saturn to a wormhole that may hold the solution to humankind’s salvation.

This sci-fi movie isn’t what you’d call action packed. It starts off incredibly slowly with what feels like an odd story about a haunted bedroom, then quickly moves into the whole NASA side of the tale. Once we’re in space, things slow down again, but the arrival of Matt Damon and an actual nemesis for the story brings it to life. The conclusion, with the explanation of the haunting, is incredibly weird and comes straight out of left field. It might not be for everyone, but it was likeable enough.
