INTERSTELLAR

After watching it two times on IMAX and having spent an extra week digesting this movie, I still don't have enough words or writing capacity to explain the radical philosophical and cinematographic experiences I had while watching INTERSTELLAR.  

I would like to warn you that if you are not the kind of person who has been involved in a scientific environment and do not have much knowledge or interest in physics, this may be a very confusing and even unrealistic movie. At least that's what happened to most film critics who were disappointed by it and clearly didn't understand the fundamental message. 

Christopher Nolan, the director, is known for movies such as Inception and The Batman Dark Knight Trilogy. Movies that can be very entertaining, but specially, very philosophical and mind blowing. 

Interstellar is no exception, in fact, this one has such profound argument that it was written under the meticulous advisory of the worldwide known astro-physicist Kip Thorne. Most film critics argue that the movie was a bit unrealistic, but I'm sorry to say that, this is in fact, "the most realistic Sci-fi movie ever made", according to no other than Stephen Hawking.      

The special effects were mesmerizing and so attached to the reality that one can almost feel completely immersed into a space journey. 

This film is certainly a piece of art, philosophy and science. A perfect combination of the most relevant and abstract physics theories like relativity, wormholes, black-holes, time and gravity with some of the most accurate visual representations of space and astronomy anyone has ever achieved. 

I guess this film affected me more than other film critics. Maybe, because of my scientific background and deep love for science and philosophy. Maybe, because I payed less attention to cinematographic elements like acting or screenplay. Whatever the reason may be, all I have to say is that this film touched me deeply and will always be remembered as one of the most mind blowing and awe inspiring movies I've ever seen. 

If you have a chance to see it on an IMAX or a big high resolution screen with top sound system, don't let the opportunity pass. This movie was definitely not designed for TV.
