The world is
changing. And it’s changing for the worst. Crops are dying. Food-crisis is
taking over the interests in technology. “People don’t really want engineers
but farmers” as one powerfully states. Throwing away hefty share of funds in scientific
research & space missions are no more concern of priority. So, NASA is
forced to go underground. Human race has the fear to lose its
existence, sooner than we believe. One of most intelligent minds at the premise
[the veteran Michael Caine] opens up, “We are not meant to save the world. We
are meant to leave it”.
Decoding Christopher
Nolan’s mesmeric & equally mystifying world of gigantic prospects
irrespective of time & place [mostly space in this case] is the trickiest
job for any common movie-watcher like me. So coming up with a proclamation like
‘I am fully done with it”, is nothing but a steep example of audaciousness! I
wouldn’t dare! An Ex-NASA pilot Cooper [Played by Matthew McConaughey] is now a
farmer with two of his kids & an old father to deal with. Some strange
events and his exploratory eyes to see things in their scientific orientation
lands him to a space-mission responsibly designed to locate possible rescue-stations
in outer world to reinstate mankind in space-colonies. And then starts the tremendously
amazing expedition filled with moments of fear, panicky situations, killing betrayals
and affecting insights about life.
INTERSTELLAR is a
2hour 50min long canvas of a highly competent & thoroughly manipulative
mind called Nolan. He cleverly makes you resting with the most vividly done
human emotions in a very enigmatic way and then knocks you off with the layered
plots revealing in the most outrageous manner. No wonder if in the first half,
you only wait for the ‘Nolan-effect’ [earned authoritatively after the extravagant
thriller ‘INCEPTION’] to come and squash & squeeze you from left, right and
center, the second half does the needful in more ways than you would imagine. With
an astonishing camerawork and persuasive background score by Hans Zimmer,
INTERSTELLAR takes you through galaxies, planets with extreme climates, grasping
black holes and radiant light patterns falling over various space-objects like
some ravishing fireworks in the sky.
INTERSTELLAR fills
you with a magnanimous feeling of being in a celestial world that is enticing to
the core, unbelievably real and assertively sharp. Travelling through different
time-zones and the race against time to save humanity creates an effervescent, tensed
yet disturbingly calm mood to be felt much longer. McConaughey’s rigidly in
skin characterization gives film a strong reason to watch. Watch him going
through the video messages from his family on earth over the period of 23 long
years or him leading the space-expedition with total conviction, he dons the
hat of a skilled performer in both. Anne Hathaway as Cooper’s fellow explorer doesn’t
impress much though it is not a wasted performance. Jessica Chastain in the
role of Cooper’s daughter shines. Matt Damon’s is a shocking surprise best left
undisclosed much.
With a much longer
duration, your past gratifying tryst with Alfonso Cuaron’s masterstroke GRAVITY
and the astronomical usage of science terminology, film might incite killing impatience
in you but just have faith in Chris Nolan and his successive idea to shock,
thrill & stun you, despite all odds! INTERSTELLAR is hugely rewarding, considerably
relevant, fearlessly inventive, sensitively thrilling and the best you can do
with the storytelling and technology amalgamation! Book your Tickets…now!
[4.5/5]
