Yes, we all witnessed a visual triumph, a daring creative wonder the likes of which we haven't encountered since Inception. The music was truly the life force of movie. The sound penetrated my soul and reverberated through my body, flowing to my appendages, supplying me with life like a heartbeat pumping blood through my veins. I sat frozen, jaw agape, with tears pouring down my cheeks as the music completely overwhelmed my emotions. The music elucidated those emotional scenes, particularly ones featuring Cooper and his daughter, in a way that no words or visual ques possibly could. In every meaningful moment Zimmer's harmonies captivated watchers' attention in the way of a coach commanding a locker room with a pregame speech. I will gush irresponsibly about the magic that is this movie's sound.

Never have I seen a movie elevated so much by its score. Hans Zimmer (Dark Knight Trilogy) unleashed a performance that was, quite appropriately, out of this world. We were meant to leave it." For a movie that won an Oscar for Best Visual Effects (and deservedly so) the sound stole the show. As Michael Caine, playing the brilliant (duh!) Professor Brand, eloquently tells Cooper, "we were never meant to save the world. Here he meets others who realize that a return to our old ways is unsustainable and will ultimately lead to our demise. He feels like a man lost in time, until he stumbles into the headquarters of NASA (which had been operating in secret due to public disapproval). Cooper (McConaughey) remains one of the few survivors who still appreciates the need for engineering.


Farming became paramount while advanced technology was deemed frivolous. This belief gained steam following a world-wide blight that wiped out the vast majority of life on earth-crops and humans. Thoughtful, intelligent young characters share this sentiment. Most dismiss it as a waste of time and resources, and not just old curmudgeons feel this way. Not everyone in Interstellar recognizes the potential of advanced technology. Unlike many apocalyptic sci-fi films that feature advanced technology as the source of our destruction (ala The Terminator movies), it instead asserts that technology will save us. It's the best possible way this could go, even if it's not in our grasps just yet. But the movie had to end in one way or another. The acting is really good, but I can understand if some people have issues with the ending. The deserved love the movie gets on IMDb and other places would be an indicator that this will ring true though. Going out and saying this will be considered a classic, might not be too far stretched, but you still can never predict those things. It might be clear to some earlier than to others, where it's heading (no pun intended), but it doesn't change the fact that it's beautiful. It's not only the visual experience (there is no 3D here by the way), it's the story/ride you take with it. It's just amazing, what Nolan has put on screen here. I kind of would have loved to have watched this on an IMAX screen, the sheer scope of the whole thing. You'll either love this one or you won't. You can obviously take apart any movie that is out there. A lot has been said and written about Interstellar.
