Review of Interstellar (2014) by Saythat — 08 Dec 2018
The secret of this movie lies in its pressing on emotional buttons of human soul. It also contains a bunch of scientifically looking inserts which makes it to appear more hm... solid, truthfully looking, you know... The truth is "I don't buy it" was the phrase I constantly repeated while watching this movie. While each scientific ground is true in separate, together they form a frankenstein. Fuel consumption in the time-slowing gravitation field of Gargantua (it is horrible, guys, horrible, unless you use gravitational engine with galactium as a fuel:); the ability to perform a kryo flight and the inability to maintain hydroponics... or to extract oxygen from the environment (for those, who forgot or never knew, oxygen accounts to 49% of it by mass) In general: clumsy solutions to the invented problems. I don't buy it.
I would not mention scientific and common logic as an argument at all, but without it the movie is just boring. If you do a melodrama, don't fill the movie with the science. If you do a scientific apocalypse, make sure it looks plausible in the whole, not just in parts.
The only plus of this movie: it is well made in visual forms and actions.
