"Interstellar" is a grand undertaking, but in shooting for the stars, it loses its footing. It goes to infinity and beyond, when infinity would have been plenty.

Critics on Rotten Tomatoes
Top critics, in their words
Jessica Chastain deserves Best Supporting Actress consideration for her work. One of the most beautiful films I have ever seen.
After the first hour, with its poignant depiction of humanity's decline, Interstellar always seems to be rebuilding its momentum, offering plenty to think about but little to hold on to.
It's a film I didn't exactly enjoy and can't say I would recommend. And yet as an event, as a singular movie-watching opportunity, it's undoubtedly worthwhile.
Interstellar may be a preposterous epic, but it is an epic nonetheless.
