Complex and defining, inevitably compared
to 2001 – A Space Odessey, and generally panned for its surfeit of
near-pretentious mastery of quantum physics, Christopher Nolans’s latest magnum
opus – Interstellar – is making waves worldwide as we speak. Set in a mildly
dystopian, post-apocalyptic frugal future, Cooper (Matthew MacConnaughey), farmer
turned pilot, stumbles upon the remnants of NASA, at the cusp of seeking to
send a person to space and making contact with – well, something that could
potentially save humans on Earth. Dazzling visuals, an intriguing storyline
that requires the average viewer to pull up his/ her socks on the topic of
quantum gravity and the like… Interstellar is quite the entertainer. Full marks
to a brave movie that pushes the boundaries of what can be digested on
“popular” cinema
