Interstellar Movie Review


On the one hand, Iwas impressed with Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar. It was an
epic movie with wonderful visuals that attempted to bring tough astrophysics to a general
audience. It was an opportunity to showcase real interstellar science in the public domain.
However, the Dark Knight Rises director’s space adventure failed to deliver, even though
I was trying to see past its scientific shortfalls.
The story begins in the future on a dying Earth. There’s no time for space
exploration, life on Earth is all about fighting disease, hunger and crippling climate
change. The message is clear: if we stop exploring, we die. In Interstellar’s future we
stopped lookig at the stars and we paid the ultimate price.
Matthew McConaughey’s acting was as to be expeted; deep, emotional and well
executed, as was Anne Hathaway’s character, Amelia Brand. In General, the casting and
everyone’s acting was good. It was a movie with all the right elements.
Interstellar missed the opportunity to display brilliant science fiction and that’s
why I’m annoyed. It had potency, but that potential was squandered unnecessarily.

1. What is the message of Interstellar’s movie?


a. We will die if we stop breathing.
b. We will fail if we are not willing to work hard.
c. We will die if we stop looking at the stars.
d. We will be sick if we continue exploring.
e. We will die if we cease exploring.

2. The maian idea of pharagraph two is.........


a. Life on Earth
b. A dying Earth
c. The message of the movie
d. The Earth in future times

1
e. The synopsis of the movie

3. According to the reviewer, the movie had a potency of an excellent science


fiction, bu it was ........
a. Explored
b. Thought
c. Wasted
d. Required
e. Maintained
