It’s relatively rare for me to get to a movie theater to see a film on opening weekend, much less opening day, but B. and I got a chance to see” Interstellar” on Friday afternoon.
What should follow is a long review, but I don’t feel moved. If I had to sum up my opinion in one word, the word would be “meh.”
There were moments that were startling or thought-provoking, but most of the movie was just boring – and I don’t bore easily. Perhaps the pacing was intentional to denote the hopelessness or vast lengths of time involved. If so, other cinematic or writing techniques should have been deployed.
I also think the music score needs to be toned down. As a former organist, I admit that I loved a few prominent appearances of the organ, but overall the music was too loud and intrusive.
I’ll be interested to read some of the professional reviews – to see how far off the mark I am…

That’s too bad! I have seen the ads and thought it looked like something I would like. I don’t go out to movies (money and other reasons) I wait till they are on HBO or Netflix. So in a year or so I can give you my opinion, if I remember hee hee 🙂

My family enjoys a lot of sci fi, but this one was disappointing. Given that you won’t see it for a while, it will make the wait more bearable! 😉
