i like motion pictures

polarising film. visually, aurally the standard bearer, thematically heavy and assured, but smacks too much of 'science geek' (albeit very, very good science). Nolan has astronomical imagination and intelligence, but this film is hampered by its writing, from character to dialogue, and with its attempts at heart smothered by science. the fact i wished it's shorter when objectively it should be longer says a little about Nolan's pacing and control of his material. also i'm sharing this article (The 7 biggest problems with “Interstellar”) cos it's so damn hilarious.
