"The End of Earth is Not The End of Us"

"The Universe is Always Expanding, Keep Searching"

Interstellar, no doubt, it's the 'Grand Space Opera' kinda cinematic experience one will ever have from Christopher Nolan ever since his "Inception". However, this film is based on super real, scientific concepts like neutron stars, spinning black holes, time travel between space, age difference when you're out of earth etc with all the 'so real I think it's real' math & physics calculation on NASA HQ board! Well, honestly, I did got "lost" = "zzz" somewhere in the beginning of the show but towards the middle of the show... I was like "Woah.... awesome out of space view, wow starry blinking stars, amazing milky way, I think I saw Jupiter... oh, this is how black hole looks like..." kinda amusement.. =p Therefore, the best thing of this show is how abg Nolan inspire all of us to think magically.. imagination can go so wild! Beauty, brains and plenty of love element in this film.

Black hole.. woooo...

The method of space travel in this film was 

based on physicist Kip Thorne's works, 

which were also the basis for the method of

space travel in Carl Sagan's novel "Contact", 

and the resulting film adaptation, Contact (1997).

Matthew McConaugheystars in both films.

"Interstellar" has five Academy Award (Oscar) winners

in the cast: Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, 

Michael Caine, Ellen Burstyn and Matt Damon.

Christopher Nolan's previous film, The Dark Knight Rises (2012),

also had five Oscar winners in the cast.

Well, it's a 2014 super big-budget science fiction adventure (they goes up to max of 80mm IMAX when normals are 35mm and 75mm IMAX wokay) film starring Oscar winner, Matthew McConaughey, as a NASA test pilot, farmer & a widower called Cooper and Anne Hathaway, an Academy Award recipient who played as an astronaut. This film follows the adventures of a newly discovered wormhole to surpass the limitations on human space travel and conquer the vast distances involved in an interstellar voyage.

You might have to decide between seeing 

your children again and the future of the human race

Not sure of what I'm more afraid of, 

them never coming back, or coming back to find we've failed

This is the first outer space science fiction film

 for Christopher Nolan, Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway's

Btw, did anyone realise this, Cooper's daughter at the age of 10 is actually acted by Mackenzie Foy (who were once played as Edward Cullen & Bella Swan's young daughter, Reneesme in Twilight Breaking Dawn 2). She's still the same, young & talented.

The character of Murph was originally 

a boy in early drafts of the script

Murphy's law doesn't mean that something bad will happen.

It means that whatever can happen, will happen

It was beautifully & creatively written by Christopher Nolan & his brother, Jonathan Nolan. 47 years old's theoretical physicist, Kip Thorne's works were the one who inspired this film. He's also the executive producer and scientific consultant for the film.

FYI, did you know it took Kip Thorne's intellect, 30 special effects experts, thousands of computers, and a year of hard work to produce these amazing black hole just for us to watch in the cinema?! Woah! He's one of the leading experts on the implications of Albert Einstein's theory of general relativity, Throne and a good friend of Stephen Hawking.

Brand: Love is the one thing that transcends time and space

Nolan combined his idea with an existing script

by his brother Jonathan Nolan that was developed

in 2007 for Paramount Pictures and producer Lynda Obst

The giant dust clouds were created on location

using large fans to blow cellulose-based 

synthetic dust through the air.

This close to 3 hours film showed us few different locations; from cornfield to NASA HQ, then from there to outer space, then to black hole, then *poof*, to new awesome dimension planet...

Dave Calhoun, Time Out - "Christopher Nolan’s overwhelming, immersive and time-bending space epic ‘Interstellar’ makes Alfonso Cuarón’s ‘Gravity’ feel like a palate cleanser for the big meal to come. Where ‘Gravity’ was brief, contained and left the further bounds of the universe to our imagination, ‘Interstellar’ is long, grand, strange and demanding – not least because it allows time to slip away from under our feet while running brain-aching ideas before our eyes... Despite the cosmic canvas, ‘Interstellar’ is still one of the most earthbound films to date from Nolan, and the one most in tune with its emotions."

"We used to look up at the sky and wonder 

at our place in the stars, now we just look down 

and worry about our place in the dirt."

That's the ship's on-board robot, TARS.
The film also features another robot named CASE.
As to what the initials stand for, it's anyone's guess... Hmm

The oft-quoted lines beginning with

"Do not go gentle into that good night" 

are from a poem by Dylan Thomas

[I cried in this lovely scene too... =')]

Like everyone mentioned, it's pretty much like the film, "Gravity" but Interstellar is a pretty much a more difficult, complex and complicated film to make. We know what is it like to be in earth orbit, gravity and all but this movie, abg Nolan want us to examine/see bigger picture than what it's shown, let you go wild on imagination.. Really salute the production team and the mastermind behind this movie la! Da boom walaupun I erm ter-tidur jap! Whoops! >,<

Interstellar may be drifting a million miles out to the outer space, but we all know exactly where it's going! Hmm, or maybe not!

For their official website, click here to find out more. The website is quite "spacey"!

See it LARGE & LOUD on IMAX..! Shall watch this movie on IMAX again! :)

And below here are few of it's official trailers. Click play to watch it!

Well, I rated this movie 8.5 out of 10 for the cinematography and the GFX! Super wild & magical! What a HUGE Grand Space Opera! Good & awesome! Just have to bear with me in the first one hour la... :P

Well, that's all for the Interstellar movie review of mine!

Till then... ciao~
