I'm not even a parent, but Cooper's scene watching all those transmissions, as his kids were so rapidly growing up just broke my heart the first time I watched this movie. For that tiny moment I think I knew what actual loss felt like, even if it was just a tiny, imagined sliver.
You won't know how it feels until it happens, but if you're of a mind to take a random bit or advice from a random dude on UA-cam then make time for the things and the people you love because one day, my friend, that thing or that person you love will be gone. Treasure the time you have now. I promise that's one thing you won't regret.
This and the “my dad promised” part is the reason I never watched this movie again after the 1st time. Just whoosh- brings back so much emotion. Being a young dad, losing my partner as well- just lots of memories.
I had the same feeling as I sat in the movie theather all those years ago. Now I have a daughter myself, and as every parent probably knows, everything changes with that, your view on certain things. Especially movies involving kids and themes of parenthood hits a hundred times harder. I recently watched this movie again, it was almost unbearable.
I wasn’t a father when I first watched this in theaters and it pulled my heart strings. Now that I have an almost one year old boy, those scenes broke me. Especially at the end when she said my dad promised.
Watching this in the cinema was my best movie experience ever. I felt like my eyes were hypnotized to the screen, like time slowed down and forgot where I was. When the movie ended it felt like i woke up from a dream
The term masterpiece gets thrown around far too often. I feel like a true masterpiece comes around once a decade, if that. It’s an experience that transcends time and space. You are not just watching, you are taking part in a cultural moment. That being said, Interstellar is a stone cold masterpiece.
@Lee Lorenz Interstellar is like A Space Odyssey but actually good lol. Some people pretend like Odyssey is a masterpiece, but it's not. It's a boring, long drawn out movie. I understood it, but its not good.
I use to work at a movie theater when Interstellar came out, and I’d clean up the theaters after each showing, and I use to show up early just so I could listen to the soundtrack over the closing credits, it’s so beautiful and interesting
That's awesome man. I don't remember seeing it in cinemas but I'm sure I did at the time and I must've been just as blooown away then as I still am now by how amaaazing this masterpiece really is.
_Interstellar_ had a real, Nobel prize-winning astrophysicist (Kip Thorne) as a consultant and executive producer. That's why this movie is so realistic whereas many Hollywood movies are not. Of course, there are still liberties, but it's largely accurate to the best of our knowledge. That's what I like highlighting when I tell people about this movie: so many authors write sci-fi and none of it is anywhere near as weird as reality is.
I feel the need to give a shoutout to the people that wrote Futurama. It's obviously a comical show of scifi genre, but they are referred to as the most overqualified producers for a reason. They are absurdly well educated and it translates to some of the funniest jokes about academia and physics I have ever seen.
Apparently the black hole took 100 hours per frame to render at times, because they were chucking a bunch of theoretical math into a physics simulation and just... using whatever came out, rather than making something up. No one had actually tried visualizing it that way yet, that's why it was actually helpful for physicists.
Such a strong sentence. Especially considering that it's formulated by the smartest and more "scientific" person in human history. Despite her scientific background the only thing she was ever certain is that his dad loved her and was coming back.
I would argue that it's not only the dialogue .. but also the music that backs up the emotion which breaks us all . Hans Zimmer spun a magic with this one . Imagine listening to that dialogue without the music ... it wouldn't have that much of an effect .
This film is very dear to me. After my mom passed I went into a drunken haze to try to ease the grief,.. I remember buying this dvd to help me cope and to take me away to another place.. and this film did just that. I’m super grateful to have this movie in my life. Love and miss you Mom.
My brother and I left the theater thinking the same thing. That we had just witnessed the greatest film we had ever seen and one of the greatest movies ever made
@@revealingtruth3329 i felt the same way with my friend. I was left speechless---knowing I had just watched the most beautiful love, science, and space film ever. So much so, that I watched it a total of 3 times before it left the theaters. I wish they brought it back just so I can see it in IMAX many more times.
I've heard a lot of people say they don't like this film. I can't see why. It's a story of love with a science-based approach. I always thought the message was clear and beautiful: we can look up to the stars, we can study the universe, we can create new things...but we cannot do all that and forget that the most valuable thing we have is each other. If we lose sight of that, we're just robots going through our programming. Love is the unpredictable force that cannot be quantified.
The thing I love about your content is that you don't just watch content to react to it with pure emotion. You watch it analytically and understand why these films evoke an emotional response. Your insight on this is proof of how much more mindful you are than other reactors. Great video. You got good taste in film.
@@xXscreamingkoalaXx Just because she didn't say anything bad about it? The way someone analyses something at all depends on just how they do it.. Some do it in a more deeper level while some try to the best of their abilities, still both are analysis/review and no one can argue on that..
I watch a movie at night and full night my mind is fully upset and not able to handle my body murph feel me very emotional bcoz murph and copper sacrifice her life and murph sacrifice hole life to meet copper very disturbing movie for me
When you have kids, you spend the early years trying to bring joy to their life, but ultimately those memories will only be yours because once your children grow older they will not remember them. The realisation that one day you will be just a ghost or a memory is truly humbling. Love those around you with everything you have, as often as you can. ❤
The "No Time For Caution" (aka Docking Scene) is one of the best pieces of cinema I've seen! Perfect union of music and film. I saw that scene in the cinema and felt like I was on the edge of my seat and holding my breath it felt the entire time. Just pure suspense and 100% gripped to the scene. Even after seeing the film many times I still cry when Murph says to her Dad over the message "...did you leave us here to die?", it just breaks me!
Same here, I hold my seat's armrests during all the docking scene in the theater. In every other movie I'd just knew they were gonna make it but in this one everything's keep getting worse and worse so I was absolutely hooked. Still one of the best space scene of cinema history imo.
This movie is about a father and a daughter, how he treats his daughter so well and their emotions and connections are just so real, I don't have such a father, he is just abusive, I hate him and wish I had a good father. This movie just shows that. It makes me so emotional that Murph has such a good father that even after that many years, she knows he will come back because he made a promise. I wish I had something, but I know in future my children would have a father just like I ever wanted. A father who will teach love and respect, who can give good things, not trauma and stress as I got from my father, a father who cares. Movies are such great things, watching how he treats Murph just makes me so emotional, and happy, at least I experienced that through her.
You saw all the family in Murph's room, she lived an entire lifetime without her dad there. Their love literally crossed time and space and that was powerful, but even then, Coop knew he was an outsider in his daughter's life. It's still sad, but not the total tragedy that he didn't stick around to watch her die.
This movie always makes me cry. The lines "we're just here to be memories for our children" and "because my dad promised me" help me to keep me present as I'm currently raising my Daughter.
My favorite song in the musical score is "Mountains" that plays on the initial water planet with the ticking. I just loved the instrumentals and the sense of urgency it conveys. However, it became one of my favorite pieces of cinema music when I learned that the each "tick" occurs every 1.25 seconds and represents an entire day passing on Earth due to the time dilation. The fact that this subtle detail was put into the musical score is amazing to me.
I remember seeing this in cinema. Movies usually don't make me feel tense, but the whole interaction between Mann and Cooper, the eerieness, the fight, Romelos death, the failed docking and then actual docking, all accompanied by Zimmers masterpiece of a soundtrack.... It's just perfection. I was god damn tense.
Regardless how many times I rewatch this movie the scene of him in the end trying to communicate with his daughter always get my eye to water! Metthew McConaughy's acting and emotional show is powerful!
Coop respected Murphs desires and wishes and wisdom. She didn’t want him to watch her die. He respected that and obliged. He learned his lesson about not listening to her.
In terms of your reactions, I especially love that you became emotional at the actuality of Saturn. I've never seen anyone else do that, but I totally relate to it. Awe is a hard emotion to describe, but it's profound.
Jupiter for me, the way the clouds move, the different colors.. our tiny little solar system is so amazing. We are very lucky to have such awe inspiring cosmic neighbors to gaze at. They protect us as well. Earth would not be this perfect peaceful planet that we enjoy without our neighbors to help shield us.
When first seeing this in theaters, the message of the film was lost on me because of everything it was trying to say. Only watched it for the second time just recently, and the message became as clear as day. The message was that love will transcend time and space.
The first time I saw this movie, I had "heard" that it had some parallels to 2001 A Space Odyssey, so once the robots were introduced I spent the whole movie going "okay, when does at least one of them try to kill everyone" and I was going to lower my opinion of the movie based on that. I'm so glad TARS was still able to be my favorite character by the time the movie was over.
Awesome! Glad you re-watched! She told him to go save Brand because he can still save her, so she knows it worked and she can come back. She's not alone in the universe and that humans survive even more than they could imagine (they/we sent the wormhole eventually).
This is the only movie that I can watch multiple times since release till 2023 and the ending ALWAYS makes me cry. No other movie does this to me, not even Click.
Dr. Man’s planet was filmed on the same glacier from Batman begins. But you are half correct in that this time around a volcano had a since erupted, and that’s why it looks like it’s covered in ash.
Watched reviews for Interstellar multiple times.. never seen someone have as much respect and understanding for the science and space as yourself. Including visuals achieved in this. Gave a completely new view perspective. Keep it up Vee 😁😁
The soundtrack is really the core of this film. The movie itself has been constructed around the soundtrack and not the other way around. Christopher Nolan asked Hans Zimmer to write a piece that represented the love of a father for his child, and that's how the main theme was born. After hearing that, Nolan decided that it was going to be a science fiction movie and everything else, the real core of the story is the love of a father. Other fun fact about the soundtrack: when they are on the water planet you hear the ticking of a clock. The time of each tick is more or less 1.33 seconds, that according to the equation they described corresponds exactely to one day on earth. So you basically feel how time is advancing differently in the two planets.
I first "watched" interstellar while on road trip with my sister. I used quotations because it was being played on a smartphone so i couldn't really see it that well. Maybe a year later i watched it again and it was like i hadn't watched it before. I finally understood what was going on, especially in the tesseract, (understood being used loosely here lol) . I'm leaving this comment before watching, but i look forward to watching this review of yours.
As many people will likely comment on, the ticks in the background on the water planet were actually days passing back on earth. That's how slow they were there, and how fast time was really going, but done in a way you may not realise until later on.
Interesting fact: Some individual frames within this scene of the black hole's effects took up to 100 hours to render, totalling altogether to around 800 terabytes of data for this scene.
I’ve seen this movie several times, and one thing I’ve always taken away from it is: love. Love is the energy that can never be destroyed nor disrupted In communication, across all planes of existence. Nolan is one of the best directors of the generation. Kudos ❤
Before I start: I just saw this movie this year after hearing it recommended for years and years. I bawled my eyes out, it immediately went into my top 5 films of all time. So excited to watch this video with you and get hurt all over again. Edit after I finished: Yep, cried again on a short edited version. Oh well, just gonna roll with it.
I like how you said you were going to watch this in a more critiquing lens but instead, the movie is so damn good that you just end up getting completely lost into the film. One the greatest movies ever made.
ive watched just about every channels reaction to this movie but I love this one the most due to how much you actually enjoy space regardless of the movie, so your interest in the movie seems so genuine, great movie, great reaction
"You were my ghost" "Because my dad promised me" Two lines that hit me like a truck every single time. And you mention that last scene felt maybe too quick but as a dad if my dying daughter told me to leave and set me on another mission, id have to do just that.
I love that you commented about being an Atmospheric scientist and how it changes how you feel about this movie, I couldn’t agree more. I’m an atmospheric science major as well, and a pilot…..so yeah this movie checks a lot of boxes for me.
Nolan is a Genius! THIS is the BEST Science Fiction movie of all times. Even after watching it 10 times it makes me cry. The film is an absolute masterpiece!
The shoots filmed in Dr.Manns planet was shot in Iceland, Svínafellsjökull Glacier, east of Skaftafell, an outlet glacier of Vatnajökull in Vatnajökull National Park.
My entire adult life I’ve had a hard time zeroing in on what my “favorite film” was because there’s so many great ones but after seeing this and always wanting to come back to it and having the same experience every time i watch it, I came to the realization that this film is without a doubt my favorite ever.
Not gonna lie, i teared up twice during my first watch through. First time when Cooper left his kid daughter at the farm and second time when he left the bedside of his elderly daughter.
This is one of those movies that I will remember forever. I can’t put my finger on why, but it’s something to do with the science, the physical size of it all and the emotion. Incredible movie.
44:43 "If I ever want to rip my heart out and stomp on it and cry hysterically I will watch this movie" Every time I see somebody post a reaction to this movie I'm so hesitant to click on it. I love it but it's so difficult to work up the determination to sit down and take the emotional beating this movie gives. I do appreciate your content and I do want to experience this movie with you and others but it's an ordeal that I appreciate. Thank you.
A few years ago I had to leave my native country and my young daughter for work. It was like traveling to another universe, far away from my greatest love my little daughter, not knowing when I would see and hug her again. At that time I saw this movie and through the feelings... oh there are no words for it. Still one of my most favorite movies. And definitely the most personal and emotional.
I freaking love this movie! I took many astronomy classes in college and spent the whole movie trying to pick it apart- but its very scientifically correct, and it was amazing to experience in theatres
As far as the reason that the crops are dying, I always took it as a general "we messed up the environment" thing. I don't think they give a reason or have one.
they do, there are some throw away lines about "the bloght" and how it is infecting each crop and destroying it in turn...the scene right at the begining whith the old people talking , one of them is future Murph and she says something like "after all the wheat diead we only had corn" and then when they visit NASA you see somescientists expirimenting with different dead crops
I loved space stuff when I first saw this on a huge IMAX screen so I was geeking out exactly how you were in this reaction! It made me cry not just because of the emotional stuff, but how gorgeous all the space stuff was!
A fantastic movie. As a prospective Astrophysicist, I absolutely love this movie. Obviously there is a lot of inaccuracy and creative license, but regardless, the conceptualization, imagery, acting, music and portrayal of Relativity in motion is just absolutely breathtaking.
I think the scene where he leaves his daughter to die with her family is tragic for him, but respectful of her life. As much as she is a big part of his life, she lived her entire life without him. She had relationships and children and grandchildren. He saw this and let her be with them as the two were essentially strangers.
No, not strangers but I think it's that they've had their conversation (closure) and his presence as she dies would contribute nothing for her and just hurt him.
Some things people don't notice about the end, which is understood because it's very emotional: You can see Murph on the screen when Cooper walks up to his house (38:56) but he doesn't realise it's her, even though she says "my dad was a farmer". All of plan A worked, despite the fact that Professor Brand never intended it to. They managed to successfully go through the wormhole, they managed to launch the giant spacestantions off earth thanks to Murph, and in the final scene of the film we see Brand is on a new habitable planet. The reason Cooper has to go, is that people will only know of the planet once Cooper finds Brand on it. Without Brand, Cooper would never had a reason to leave, and they probably wouldn't have found the planet.
Let's admit, though: "Properly" is a big stretch. One cannot just "Go straight into a black hole" anymore than it's "easy" to go straight into the Sun from Earth. You'd be trapped in the swirling accretion disk nearly forever to outside observers. Black Holes are where Physics break down, so there is no "Properly."
@@rollomaughfling380 I was mainly talking about the point where they was passing through the bulsonic manifold into the wormhole and yes it's common knowledge from TV series from Brian Cox to Neil Tyson that the effects of a black hole on an object are widely known and how space time slows the closer you get to a black hole I was referring to the minutiae like the huge wave the wormhole the way the spacecraft work and operate and how gravity is spread across multiple dimensions.
whole film hinges on the ability to send messages back in time from inside a black hole, even less believable than most of Inception. 🤣 at least they tried, just like The Martian and Gravity.
The old people talking about the dust at the beginning, except the old Murphy, are not actors, but clips from the Ken Burns' documentary on the dust bowl so they actually experienced what they are talking about.
This film is a masterpiece the music score is top notch and acting is very good 👏 as a parent the scene where Cooper watch the messages from his kids growing up and he crying that scene really hit me one of my top movies in my life time
I'm pretty sure I saw this movie at least 6-7 times. One of the best movies I have ever seen. Also, that scene where he's watching clips after 23 years and when Murph says "Because my dad promised me" gets me every time.
Nolan said he already had the idea for Interstellar while they were filming The Dark Knight Rises. And he thought Anne Hathaway was the only person who understood the concept he wanted to do, which is why he wanted her to be in it.
Great quotes; DON'T LET ME LEAVE MURPH! those aren't mountains, they're waves... Because my dad promised me... Cooper, this is no time for caution! It's not possible! No, it's necessary... There is a moment... What are you doing? Docking... 23 years, 4 months, 8 days Get your ass back to the ranger, NOW! Do not go gentle into that good night...
All of the new planets were filmed on location in Iceland. Miller's water planet was filmed in Glacier Lagoon and Mann's ice planet was filmed on the glacier Svínafellsjökull. Edmunds' desert planet has been harder to pin down, but seems to have been filmed on the southern coastline in Máfabót.
There are so many different planets on Earth! 😉 But seriously, no matter what kind of alien planet/moon needs a setting or environment, you'll find something for it here on Earth. The whole Moon looks kind of samey, and so does Mars, but you'll find areas on Earth that are a good match for both, as well as just about any other kind of planet we can imagine.
@@bigdream_dreambig It might at that, but this doesn't change the fact that our home planet has numerous and quite diverse environments, even without life, but of course much more with life helping shape the landscape. Perhaps all of this natural diversity around us has made our imaginations lazy, since all we have to do is scout for locations to stand in for alien worlds.
He didnt stay with her daughter cause she ask her not to, she had decades to get the idea that her father was gone, she already accept it, but for him, he only left her a few months ago. Thats why she didnt want him there, she knew this would be the most painful moment of his life is he had to watch her die, soo she ask him to go after Grant instead. At least thats how i understand that ending.
For me this movie is the best I've ever seen I don't think I'll ever see a movie this good it doesn't have the best story or the best score or the best visuals. but he has soul and emotions and together it becomes a 10. Christopher Nolan made a work of art and together with several actors perfect for the roles. simply interstellar
Interstellar is *absolutely* one of the best films out there. Both for it's hard science, the story, the message, the acting. I dunno, i found a good portion of it actually uplifting. it changed my perspective on some things. Love especially. Some people curl their lip at the idea, but it resounded and resonated with me. I'm so glad you came back to Interstellar and watched it again. It brought me back too, and like you.. I am reeling all over again.
My dad was in hospice when I saw this. Just finished my graduate degree in aviation when I saw this. Weird coincidences there but it's definitely a movie that makes you think about time and how it plays into our lives.
What happened to the food supply is a general crop blight. It wiped out all the Earth's food crops except for corn. And because literally all the world is engaging in intensive monoculture, the soil has become depleted and huge dust storms are happening as a result. And as they find out early in the film, the blight has started to affect the corn crop too.
this is my understanding also. in addition, the whole thing is also affecting the atmosphere which is becoming more saturated in Nitrogen which blight strives in but would eventually suffocate humans. the whole thing with gravity, and the equation, is a separate issue that needs to be solved to get humans off Earth
I remember seeing this in theaters. It came out when I had a lot of stress going on in my life, and I was positively white-knuckling it in my seat the whole time. I was literally trembling as I walked out of the theater. Such an incredible film...until the last 20 minutes.
Interstellar is something else entirely. A work of art is probably the best way it can be described but like you said it just unlocks some crazy emotions and makes you think in ways you never though you would. I've seen it a bunch of times and every time I watch it I find things I missed or I get a different perspective on what I saw. Just sooooooooo good!
I love this movie because I got my undergrad degree in Astronomy with a master's in physics. The real secret is that this movie isn't actually about astronomy - it's about the power of human connection as exemplified by the connection between Murph and her father. Every time I go back to watch this again, I find another to appreciate it. Nolan - you put together a true masterpiece and Zimmer, wow - you nailed it.
And it is genius that Nolan employs relativity to showcase the brevity of life. The ending breaks my heart because Murph says "No parent should have to watch their daughter die." and unfortunately my cousin Doreen who is the mother of my cousin Joilene (Joi) had to watch her daughter die in her arms. I cry every time I see this part in Interstellar because it resonates with me more than ever now. 💔😢
After the first time watching this movie, I had to lie in my bed for like an hour just to process all of it. It is such an incredible movie, and it deserves all the awards and praise it geta
This movie is one of the best I saw in 30 years of my life. Incredible. Music fit perfectly, actors are on point, visuals too. The "tapes" scene just crush everyone that sees it. The "docking scene" was such a tense one. You coudn't hear anyone in the cinema room. No-one trying to get candies or popcorn just complete silence holding our breath for the whole scene XD.
This is one of my all time favourite movies, for all the same reasons as why it is for so many others haha. Absolutely incredible. And your reaction was too, especially the context around watching it... But Nolan loves to do everything practically, at least as much as possible, so Mann's ice planet was actually filmed on a glacier in Iceland. Also the ranger spacecrafts were real and filmed in front of a screen, kind of like a 'volume' as its evolved into now, so the lighting and actors reactions are more real. I had the pleasure to see this in IMAX when it was released and it was definitely the most mind blowing theater experience I've ever had.
I have the same feelings, how i mean HOW... it's amazing that everything exist, i can't describe how i feel when i see the stars, the moon, so far away floating in space, it blows my mind everytime and i feel like i want to cry... I Loved your reaction so much, this is my favorite movie. Thank you for recording this reactions ♡
I love this movie! the stories of behind the scenes of this movie are equally fascinating. it stared with Christopher Nolan asking Hans Zimmer to write a small piece of music about a father and a child and he told him nothing else. Zimmer wrote what is now main theme of the movie. Which Nolan used as inspiration for the script. Nolan then got up with Dr. Kip Thorn, a Noble Prize winner theoretical physicist who looked over all the science side, making it as close to reality as possible. The Black hole visuals used in the movie is actually a simulation of a real black hole based on equations of Kip Thorn and visualized by VFX artists. There were multiple physics papers written on that simulation. Later when we got the first image of a black hole, it perfectly aligned with the blackhole of the movie. The scene on water planet, if you notice there is a ticking sound. each tick represent a day passing by on earth. P.S if you ever read this please continue with breaking bad too lol. i love your reactions
The space station scenes were actually filmed at the "Westin Bonaventure Hotel" in downtown Los Angeles. The main lobby of the hotel was converted into a space ship. Interestingly enough, this is also the same hotel where they filmed the famous horse chase scene in the movie "True Lies" where Arnold took a horse into the elevator. I believe they filmed about half a dozen movies here. I actually found this hotel by accident during a trip to LA where I "randomly" stopped a taxi cab because it was getting too expensive. I told the cab driver to stop, then we wandered into the first hotel we could find. It turned out to be this hotel. I recognized it the moment I walked into the lobby.
As other comments have said, Astrophysicist Kip Thorne was involved with the film. I read a book that detailed everything Kip Thorne did for the film and the astrophysics involved. He coauthored a script with a screenwriter that later became Interstellar after Christopher and Jonathan Nolan got their hands on it. If I were to hazard an estimate I would say it is 98% scientifically accurate with the bulk of the inaccuracies centered around the slingshot maneuver around gargantua toward mann's planet. Reality would have been more complex to portray and would have slowed down the plot to portray in that moment. The most impressive scientific thing about the movie is Gargantua (the black hole.) Kip Thorne basically mapped out a bunch of equations that would basically map out the appearance of a black hole. He gave these equations to the special effects house that Nolan was using for the film and they used these equations to create the black hole model in the film. One or two years ago NASA got the first ever photo of a black hole. Fucking Kip Thorne's equations and the cg model they created were absolutely identical. He accurately modeled a black hole before we ever had an image of one.
I always imagined Cooper finally making it back to Brandt on that planet and after some time hearing the voice of his father giving sage advice "start doing your part young man to repopulate the Earth" while shedding an ever so loving tear at that distant memory.😢
I'm not even a parent, but Cooper's scene watching all those transmissions, as his kids were so rapidly growing up just broke my heart the first time I watched this movie. For that tiny moment I think I knew what actual loss felt like, even if it was just a tiny, imagined sliver.
I completely agree and the way you described it was perfect. *One* of the most heartbreaking and gutwrenching moments in this movie
You won't know how it feels until it happens, but if you're of a mind to take a random bit or advice from a random dude on UA-cam then make time for the things and the people you love because one day, my friend, that thing or that person you love will be gone. Treasure the time you have now. I promise that's one thing you won't regret.
This and the “my dad promised” part is the reason I never watched this movie again after the 1st time. Just whoosh- brings back so much emotion. Being a young dad, losing my partner as well- just lots of memories.
I had the same feeling as I sat in the movie theather all those years ago. Now I have a daughter myself, and as every parent probably knows, everything changes with that, your view on certain things. Especially movies involving kids and themes of parenthood hits a hundred times harder. I recently watched this movie again, it was almost unbearable.
I wasn’t a father when I first watched this in theaters and it pulled my heart strings. Now that I have an almost one year old boy, those scenes broke me. Especially at the end when she said my dad promised.
This movie is a masterpiece, the acting, the visuals, and the score together are a magnificent painting.
Watching this in the cinema was my best movie experience ever. I felt like my eyes were hypnotized to the screen, like time slowed down and forgot where I was. When the movie ended it felt like i woke up from a dream
The term masterpiece gets thrown around far too often. I feel like a true masterpiece comes around once a decade, if that. It’s an experience that transcends time and space. You are not just watching, you are taking part in a cultural moment. That being said, Interstellar is a stone cold masterpiece.
Its OK. All the ideas are taken from other films. Even the style. Kubric.
@Lee Lorenz Interstellar is like A Space Odyssey but actually good lol. Some people pretend like Odyssey is a masterpiece, but it's not. It's a boring, long drawn out movie. I understood it, but its not good.

@Syntex366 Hans Zimmer is a mastermind of composition
That's awesome man. I don't remember seeing it in cinemas but I'm sure I did at the time and I must've been just as blooown away then as I still am now by how amaaazing this masterpiece really is.
_Interstellar_ had a real, Nobel prize-winning astrophysicist (Kip Thorne) as a consultant and executive producer. That's why this movie is so realistic whereas many Hollywood movies are not. Of course, there are still liberties, but it's largely accurate to the best of our knowledge. That's what I like highlighting when I tell people about this movie: so many authors write sci-fi and none of it is anywhere near as weird as reality is.
I feel the need to give a shoutout to the people that wrote Futurama. It's obviously a comical show of scifi genre, but they are referred to as the most overqualified producers for a reason. They are absurdly well educated and it translates to some of the funniest jokes about academia and physics I have ever seen.
Kip used this movie to publish a Physics paper 🤓
Apparently the black hole took 100 hours per frame to render at times, because they were chucking a bunch of theoretical math into a physics simulation and just... using whatever came out, rather than making something up. No one had actually tried visualizing it that way yet, that's why it was actually helpful for physicists.
guess he had the day off when Nolan wrote the love transcends time bullshit lol
@@stonaraptor8196 IKR??? If you're gonna pull that at least acknowledge that the same would apply to _any_ emotion you feel towards someone
I can only write it in every reaction. "...Because my dad promised me." Instant tears every time.
Ayyyuuuup
Such a strong sentence. Especially considering that it's formulated by the smartest and more "scientific" person in human history. Despite her scientific background the only thing she was ever certain is that his dad loved her and was coming back.
Yeah. It breaks me apart.
It was so beautiful and sad.
Just reading your comment fucked my ass up
I would argue that it's not only the dialogue .. but also the music that backs up the emotion which breaks us all . Hans Zimmer spun a magic with this one . Imagine listening to that dialogue without the music ... it wouldn't have that much of an effect .
Seeing these scenes for the 100th time and still crying like if i lost someone... The beauty of this film is UNIQUE
same
This film is very dear to me.
After my mom passed I went into a drunken haze to try to ease the grief,.. I remember buying this dvd to help me cope and to take me away to another place.. and this film did just that. I’m super grateful to have this movie in my life. Love and miss you Mom.
this is beautiful, so sorry to hear about your mum
I’m sorry for your loss. Like the movie says, love is the only thing that can transcend dimensions of space and time
❤️
All the best to you @xlo6925
This film is one of the most impressive experiences in the history of theater
My brother and I left the theater thinking the same thing. That we had just witnessed the greatest film we had ever seen and one of the greatest movies ever made
Greatest movie ever
@@revealingtruth3329 i felt the same way with my friend. I was left speechless---knowing I had just watched the most beautiful love, science, and space film ever. So much so, that I watched it a total of 3 times before it left the theaters. I wish they brought it back just so I can see it in IMAX many more times.
My brothers and I specifically went to see this in IMAX because we knew what an experience it would be
I've heard a lot of people say they don't like this film. I can't see why. It's a story of love with a science-based approach. I always thought the message was clear and beautiful: we can look up to the stars, we can study the universe, we can create new things...but we cannot do all that and forget that the most valuable thing we have is each other. If we lose sight of that, we're just robots going through our programming. Love is the unpredictable force that cannot be quantified.
Real
The thing I love about your content is that you don't just watch content to react to it with pure emotion. You watch it analytically and understand why these films evoke an emotional response. Your insight on this is proof of how much more mindful you are than other reactors.
Great video. You got good taste in film.
!!!!!!!!!!!! This is one of the best comments I have ever received ❤ Gave me butterflies!! This meant so much to hear, thank you very much Alec. 😊❤😊
@@VKunia you are very welcome! I look forward to seeing what you do next!
P.S. Do you think you'll ever react to the movies by Cartoon Saloon?
I watched the whole reaction waiting for this analysis. What on Earth are you talking about? What analysis? It was purely an emotional reaction.
@@xXscreamingkoalaXx Just because she didn't say anything bad about it? The way someone analyses something at all depends on just how they do it.. Some do it in a more deeper level while some try to the best of their abilities, still both are analysis/review and no one can argue on that..
I watch a movie at night and full night my mind is fully upset and not able to handle my body murph feel me very emotional bcoz murph and copper sacrifice her life and murph sacrifice hole life to meet copper very disturbing movie for me
When you have kids, you spend the early years trying to bring joy to their life, but ultimately those memories will only be yours because once your children grow older they will not remember them. The realisation that one day you will be just a ghost or a memory is truly humbling. Love those around you with everything you have, as often as you can. ❤
The "No Time For Caution" (aka Docking Scene) is one of the best pieces of cinema I've seen! Perfect union of music and film. I saw that scene in the cinema and felt like I was on the edge of my seat and holding my breath it felt the entire time. Just pure suspense and 100% gripped to the scene. Even after seeing the film many times I still cry when Murph says to her Dad over the message "...did you leave us here to die?", it just breaks me!
Would have to agree with all of the above. Words can’t describe the emotions I feel when I watch and rewatch again and again the above 2 scenes
Same here, I hold my seat's armrests during all the docking scene in the theater. In every other movie I'd just knew they were gonna make it but in this one everything's keep getting worse and worse so I was absolutely hooked. Still one of the best space scene of cinema history imo.
This movie is about a father and a daughter, how he treats his daughter so well and their emotions and connections are just so real, I don't have such a father, he is just abusive, I hate him and wish I had a good father. This movie just shows that. It makes me so emotional that Murph has such a good father that even after that many years, she knows he will come back because he made a promise. I wish I had something, but I know in future my children would have a father just like I ever wanted. A father who will teach love and respect, who can give good things, not trauma and stress as I got from my father, a father who cares.
Movies are such great things, watching how he treats Murph just makes me so emotional, and happy, at least I experienced that through her.
You saw all the family in Murph's room, she lived an entire lifetime without her dad there. Their love literally crossed time and space and that was powerful, but even then, Coop knew he was an outsider in his daughter's life.
It's still sad, but not the total tragedy that he didn't stick around to watch her die.
This movie always makes me cry. The lines "we're just here to be memories for our children" and "because my dad promised me" help me to keep me present as I'm currently raising my Daughter.
My favorite song in the musical score is "Mountains" that plays on the initial water planet with the ticking. I just loved the instrumentals and the sense of urgency it conveys. However, it became one of my favorite pieces of cinema music when I learned that the each "tick" occurs every 1.25 seconds and represents an entire day passing on Earth due to the time dilation. The fact that this subtle detail was put into the musical score is amazing to me.
I had to quadruple check that this wasn't a reupload. Literally my favorite Nolan movie to date. Can't wait to see this reaction!
yeah i could've sworn she reacted to this already, but the further i watched, i realized it's new lol
I remember seeing this in cinema.
Movies usually don't make me feel tense, but the whole interaction between Mann and Cooper, the eerieness, the fight, Romelos death, the failed docking and then actual docking, all accompanied by Zimmers masterpiece of a soundtrack.... It's just perfection.
I was god damn tense.
Regardless how many times I rewatch this movie the scene of him in the end trying to communicate with his daughter always get my eye to water! Metthew McConaughy's acting and emotional show is powerful!
Coop respected Murphs desires and wishes and wisdom. She didn’t want him to watch her die. He respected that and obliged. He learned his lesson about not listening to her.
This is so important! Thats Coopers growth!
In terms of your reactions, I especially love that you became emotional at the actuality of Saturn. I've never seen anyone else do that, but I totally relate to it. Awe is a hard emotion to describe, but it's profound.
If I ever got to be on a space station orbiting a different planet, I’d want it to be Saturn. Such a beautiful view
Jupiter for me, the way the clouds move, the different colors.. our tiny little solar system is so amazing. We are very lucky to have such awe inspiring cosmic neighbors to gaze at. They protect us as well. Earth would not be this perfect peaceful planet that we enjoy without our neighbors to help shield us.
When first seeing this in theaters, the message of the film was lost on me because of everything it was trying to say. Only watched it for the second time just recently, and the message became as clear as day. The message was that love will transcend time and space.
The first time I saw this movie, I had "heard" that it had some parallels to 2001 A Space Odyssey, so once the robots were introduced I spent the whole movie going "okay, when does at least one of them try to kill everyone" and I was going to lower my opinion of the movie based on that. I'm so glad TARS was still able to be my favorite character by the time the movie was over.
Could you imagine waiting 23 years for your colleagues to return and then being told “there’s nothing here for us”? Talk about a mic drop moment.
Awesome! Glad you re-watched! She told him to go save Brand because he can still save her, so she knows it worked and she can come back. She's not alone in the universe and that humans survive even more than they could imagine (they/we sent the wormhole eventually).
This is the only movie that I can watch multiple times since release till 2023 and the ending ALWAYS makes me cry. No other movie does this to me, not even Click.
Dr. Man’s planet was filmed on the same glacier from Batman begins. But you are half correct in that this time around a volcano had a since erupted, and that’s why it looks like it’s covered in ash.
idk how many times i've watched this. every single time i hear this soundtrack i get melancholic. best movie in the whole world.
Agreed
Watched reviews for Interstellar multiple times.. never seen someone have as much respect and understanding for the science and space as yourself. Including visuals achieved in this. Gave a completely new view perspective. Keep it up Vee 😁😁
Thank you so much :')
This music of this movie is a healer itself, you can see the difference of clock ticking gets fast when they hit the big wave. This is something else
A lot of the music was recorded in an old church with the church organ, which gives it all a vaguely funereal feel.
The soundtrack is really the core of this film. The movie itself has been constructed around the soundtrack and not the other way around. Christopher Nolan asked Hans Zimmer to write a piece that represented the love of a father for his child, and that's how the main theme was born. After hearing that, Nolan decided that it was going to be a science fiction movie and everything else, the real core of the story is the love of a father.
Other fun fact about the soundtrack: when they are on the water planet you hear the ticking of a clock. The time of each tick is more or less 1.33 seconds, that according to the equation they described corresponds exactely to one day on earth. So you basically feel how time is advancing differently in the two planets.
The ticking in the theme for miller's planet happens every 1.25 seconds, and it represents 1 day passing on Earth
I first "watched" interstellar while on road trip with my sister. I used quotations because it was being played on a smartphone so i couldn't really see it that well. Maybe a year later i watched it again and it was like i hadn't watched it before. I finally understood what was going on, especially in the tesseract, (understood being used loosely here lol) . I'm leaving this comment before watching, but i look forward to watching this review of yours.
As many people will likely comment on, the ticks in the background on the water planet were actually days passing back on earth. That's how slow they were there, and how fast time was really going, but done in a way you may not realise until later on.
Interesting fact: Some individual frames within this scene of the black hole's effects took up to 100 hours to render, totalling altogether to around 800 terabytes of data for this scene.
Being a father of a daughter myself I can honestly say this movie broke me down emotionally hard. One of my top favorite movies.
I’ve seen this movie several times, and one thing I’ve always taken away from it is: love. Love is the energy that can never be destroyed nor disrupted In communication, across all planes of existence. Nolan is one of the best directors of the generation. Kudos ❤
Before I start: I just saw this movie this year after hearing it recommended for years and years. I bawled my eyes out, it immediately went into my top 5 films of all time. So excited to watch this video with you and get hurt all over again.
Edit after I finished: Yep, cried again on a short edited version. Oh well, just gonna roll with it.
they filmed a bit in Iceland, that may be the ice planet scenes (with a smidge of CG enhancement)
No CG is used in the movie! It's IMAX technology!
I like how you said you were going to watch this in a more critiquing lens but instead, the movie is so damn good that you just end up getting completely lost into the film. One the greatest movies ever made.
ive watched just about every channels reaction to this movie but I love this one the most due to how much you actually enjoy space regardless of the movie, so your interest in the movie seems so genuine, great movie, great reaction
"You were my ghost"
"Because my dad promised me"
Two lines that hit me like a truck every single time.
And you mention that last scene felt maybe too quick but as a dad if my dying daughter told me to leave and set me on another mission, id have to do just that.
I love that you commented about being an Atmospheric scientist and how it changes how you feel about this movie, I couldn’t agree more. I’m an atmospheric science major as well, and a pilot…..so yeah this movie checks a lot of boxes for me.
Nolan is a Genius!
THIS is the BEST Science Fiction movie of all times.
Even after watching it 10 times it makes me cry. The film is an absolute masterpiece!
Seeing this movie as a teen is the reason im studying astrophysics now!! Forever my favorite movie
The shoots filmed in Dr.Manns planet was shot in Iceland, Svínafellsjökull Glacier, east of Skaftafell, an outlet glacier of Vatnajökull in Vatnajökull National Park.
My entire adult life I’ve had a hard time zeroing in on what my “favorite film” was because there’s so many great ones but after seeing this and always wanting to come back to it and having the same experience every time i watch it, I came to the realization that this film is without a doubt my favorite ever.
Interstellar is one of the last movies shot with traditional IMAX and Roll cameras, best experience is to watch in IMAX.
Not gonna lie, i teared up twice during my first watch through. First time when Cooper left his kid daughter at the farm and second time when he left the bedside of his elderly daughter.
This is one of those movies that I will remember forever. I can’t put my finger on why, but it’s something to do with the science, the physical size of it all and the emotion. Incredible movie.
44:43 "If I ever want to rip my heart out and stomp on it and cry hysterically I will watch this movie"
Every time I see somebody post a reaction to this movie I'm so hesitant to click on it. I love it but it's so difficult to work up the determination to sit down and take the emotional beating this movie gives. I do appreciate your content and I do want to experience this movie with you and others but it's an ordeal that I appreciate. Thank you.
A few years ago I had to leave my native country and my young daughter for work. It was like traveling to another universe, far away from my greatest love my little daughter, not knowing when I would see and hug her again. At that time I saw this movie and through the feelings... oh there are no words for it. Still one of my most favorite movies. And definitely the most personal and emotional.
I freaking love this movie! I took many astronomy classes in college and spent the whole movie trying to pick it apart- but its very scientifically correct, and it was amazing to experience in theatres
As far as the reason that the crops are dying, I always took it as a general "we messed up the environment" thing. I don't think they give a reason or have one.
they do, there are some throw away lines about "the bloght" and how it is infecting each crop and destroying it in turn...the scene right at the begining whith the old people talking , one of them is future Murph and she says something like "after all the wheat diead we only had corn" and then when they visit NASA you see somescientists expirimenting with different dead crops
I loved space stuff when I first saw this on a huge IMAX screen so I was geeking out exactly how you were in this reaction! It made me cry not just because of the emotional stuff, but how gorgeous all the space stuff was!
A fantastic movie. As a prospective Astrophysicist, I absolutely love this movie. Obviously there is a lot of inaccuracy and creative license, but regardless, the conceptualization, imagery, acting, music and portrayal of Relativity in motion is just absolutely breathtaking.
I think the scene where he leaves his daughter to die with her family is tragic for him, but respectful of her life. As much as she is a big part of his life, she lived her entire life without him. She had relationships and children and grandchildren. He saw this and let her be with them as the two were essentially strangers.
No, not strangers but I think it's that they've had their conversation (closure) and his presence as she dies would contribute nothing for her and just hurt him.
Some things people don't notice about the end, which is understood because it's very emotional:
You can see Murph on the screen when Cooper walks up to his house (38:56) but he doesn't realise it's her, even though she says "my dad was a farmer".
All of plan A worked, despite the fact that Professor Brand never intended it to. They managed to successfully go through the wormhole, they managed to launch the giant spacestantions off earth thanks to Murph, and in the final scene of the film we see Brand is on a new habitable planet. The reason Cooper has to go, is that people will only know of the planet once Cooper finds Brand on it. Without Brand, Cooper would never had a reason to leave, and they probably wouldn't have found the planet.
I absolutely love it when films use physics properly this was so awesome to watch with a twist at the end nobody expected.
Yes. Even the “sci-fi/fantastical” interpretations of the tesseract3 are all based in physics even if explaining it is extremely convoluted
Let's admit, though: "Properly" is a big stretch. One cannot just "Go straight into a black hole" anymore than it's "easy" to go straight into the Sun from Earth. You'd be trapped in the swirling accretion disk nearly forever to outside observers. Black Holes are where Physics break down, so there is no "Properly."
@@rollomaughfling380 I was mainly talking about the point where they was passing through the bulsonic manifold into the wormhole and yes it's common knowledge from TV series from Brian Cox to Neil Tyson that the effects of a black hole on an object are widely known and how space time slows the closer you get to a black hole I was referring to the minutiae like the huge wave the wormhole the way the spacecraft work and operate and how gravity is spread across multiple dimensions.
@@alanhilton7336caradventure Uh huhh . . .
whole film hinges on the ability to send messages back in time from inside a black hole, even less believable than most of Inception. 🤣 at least they tried, just like The Martian and Gravity.
The old people talking about the dust at the beginning, except the old Murphy, are not actors, but clips from the Ken Burns' documentary on the dust bowl so they actually experienced what they are talking about.
This film is a masterpiece the music score is top notch and acting is very good 👏 as a parent the scene where Cooper watch the messages from his kids growing up and he crying that scene really hit me one of my top movies in my life time
I hope you remember ol grandmother for the good times you had dear sister 💪bless all of your lives brothers and sisters
I'm pretty sure I saw this movie at least 6-7 times. One of the best movies I have ever seen. Also, that scene where he's watching clips after 23 years and when Murph says "Because my dad promised me" gets me every time.
Nolan said he already had the idea for Interstellar while they were filming The Dark Knight Rises. And he thought Anne Hathaway was the only person who understood the concept he wanted to do, which is why he wanted her to be in it.
I cant count how many times Ive watched this movie, its a complete 10/10, the actors, special effects, story, and of course the music by Hans Zimmer
Great quotes;
DON'T LET ME LEAVE MURPH!
those aren't mountains, they're waves...
Because my dad promised me...
Cooper, this is no time for caution!
It's not possible! No, it's necessary...
There is a moment...
What are you doing? Docking...
23 years, 4 months, 8 days
Get your ass back to the ranger, NOW!
Do not go gentle into that good night...
40:08 "He's not gonna stay?!" He shouldn't. She knows that no parent should have to watch their child die and she doesn't want that for him.
All of the new planets were filmed on location in Iceland. Miller's water planet was filmed in Glacier Lagoon and Mann's ice planet was filmed on the glacier Svínafellsjökull. Edmunds' desert planet has been harder to pin down, but seems to have been filmed on the southern coastline in Máfabót.
There are so many different planets on Earth! 😉 But seriously, no matter what kind of alien planet/moon needs a setting or environment, you'll find something for it here on Earth. The whole Moon looks kind of samey, and so does Mars, but you'll find areas on Earth that are a good match for both, as well as just about any other kind of planet we can imagine.
@@rbrtck It makes me wonder if that says more about the limitations of our imagination...
@@bigdream_dreambig It might at that, but this doesn't change the fact that our home planet has numerous and quite diverse environments, even without life, but of course much more with life helping shape the landscape. Perhaps all of this natural diversity around us has made our imaginations lazy, since all we have to do is scout for locations to stand in for alien worlds.
He didnt stay with her daughter cause she ask her not to, she had decades to get the idea that her father was gone, she already accept it, but for him, he only left her a few months ago. Thats why she didnt want him there, she knew this would be the most painful moment of his life is he had to watch her die, soo she ask him to go after Grant instead.
At least thats how i understand that ending.
For me this movie is the best I've ever seen I don't think I'll ever see a movie this good it doesn't have the best story or the best score or the best visuals. but he has soul and emotions and together it becomes a 10. Christopher Nolan made a work of art and together with several actors perfect for the roles. simply interstellar
First reactor I’ve seen to notice the tick on Miller’s planet. Nice catch. It represents time passing, each tick I think is one day on earth.
Interstellar is *absolutely* one of the best films out there. Both for it's hard science, the story, the message, the acting. I dunno, i found a good portion of it actually uplifting. it changed my perspective on some things. Love especially. Some people curl their lip at the idea, but it resounded and resonated with me. I'm so glad you came back to Interstellar and watched it again. It brought me back too, and like you.. I am reeling all over again.
My dad was in hospice when I saw this. Just finished my graduate degree in aviation when I saw this. Weird coincidences there but it's definitely a movie that makes you think about time and how it plays into our lives.
What happened to the food supply is a general crop blight. It wiped out all the Earth's food crops except for corn. And because literally all the world is engaging in intensive monoculture, the soil has become depleted and huge dust storms are happening as a result. And as they find out early in the film, the blight has started to affect the corn crop too.
this is my understanding also. in addition, the whole thing is also affecting the atmosphere which is becoming more saturated in Nitrogen which blight strives in but would eventually suffocate humans.
the whole thing with gravity, and the equation, is a separate issue that needs to be solved to get humans off Earth
I remember seeing this in theaters. It came out when I had a lot of stress going on in my life, and I was positively white-knuckling it in my seat the whole time. I was literally trembling as I walked out of the theater. Such an incredible film...until the last 20 minutes.
I feel you, and I appreciate your honesty. Time and death terrify me as well, and this movie hits me right there. So emotional as a father, too. Ugh 😢
Interstellar is something else entirely. A work of art is probably the best way it can be described but like you said it just unlocks some crazy emotions and makes you think in ways you never though you would. I've seen it a bunch of times and every time I watch it I find things I missed or I get a different perspective on what I saw. Just sooooooooo good!
I love this movie because I got my undergrad degree in Astronomy with a master's in physics.
The real secret is that this movie isn't actually about astronomy - it's about the power of human connection as exemplified by the connection between Murph and her father.
Every time I go back to watch this again, I find another to appreciate it. Nolan - you put together a true masterpiece and Zimmer, wow - you nailed it.
And it is genius that Nolan employs relativity to showcase the brevity of life. The ending breaks my heart because Murph says "No parent should have to watch their daughter die." and unfortunately my cousin Doreen who is the mother of my cousin Joilene (Joi) had to watch her daughter die in her arms. I cry every time I see this part in Interstellar because it resonates with me more than ever now. 💔😢
@@StaticBlaster I'm so sorry to hear that. I hope the pain it brings to the surface can also bring up some happy memories at least 💓
I've seen a lot of reactions to this movie, and this is my new favorite. it's nice to see someone understand and appreciate it and show real emotion.
After the first time watching this movie, I had to lie in my bed for like an hour just to process all of it. It is such an incredible movie, and it deserves all the awards and praise it geta
One of my favourite and a top tier emotional film! I’m so happy you jumped back into this film!
This movie is one of the best I saw in 30 years of my life. Incredible. Music fit perfectly, actors are on point, visuals too.
The "tapes" scene just crush everyone that sees it.
The "docking scene" was such a tense one. You coudn't hear anyone in the cinema room. No-one trying to get candies or popcorn just complete silence holding our breath for the whole scene XD.
This movie should be used to test sociopathy. If you don't cry, you should be in therapy and heavily medicated for sociopathy.
This movie made me cry the first time I saw it. It still does and even seeing you cry, made me tear up. Phenomenal reaction!!!
This is one of my all time favourite movies, for all the same reasons as why it is for so many others haha. Absolutely incredible. And your reaction was too, especially the context around watching it...
But Nolan loves to do everything practically, at least as much as possible, so Mann's ice planet was actually filmed on a glacier in Iceland. Also the ranger spacecrafts were real and filmed in front of a screen, kind of like a 'volume' as its evolved into now, so the lighting and actors reactions are more real. I had the pleasure to see this in IMAX when it was released and it was definitely the most mind blowing theater experience I've ever had.
19:22"These ticks happen every 1.25 seconds. Each tick you hear is a whole day passing on earth." Hans, you are a genius!
I've seen this movie several times, been guided through it with great reviewers, but dear lady, you made me FEEL it. Thank you/
I have the same feelings, how i mean HOW... it's amazing that everything exist, i can't describe how i feel when i see the stars, the moon, so far away floating in space, it blows my mind everytime and i feel like i want to cry... I Loved your reaction so much, this is my favorite movie. Thank you for recording this reactions ♡
After 10-15 times watching this film, I still cry everytime 😢
I love this movie! the stories of behind the scenes of this movie are equally fascinating.
it stared with Christopher Nolan asking Hans Zimmer to write a small piece of music about a father and a child and he told him nothing else. Zimmer wrote what is now main theme of the movie. Which Nolan used as inspiration for the script.
Nolan then got up with Dr. Kip Thorn, a Noble Prize winner theoretical physicist who looked over all the science side, making it as close to reality as possible.
The Black hole visuals used in the movie is actually a simulation of a real black hole based on equations of Kip Thorn and visualized by VFX artists. There were multiple physics papers written on that simulation. Later when we got the first image of a black hole, it perfectly aligned with the blackhole of the movie.
The scene on water planet, if you notice there is a ticking sound. each tick represent a day passing by on earth.
P.S if you ever read this please continue with breaking bad too lol. i love your reactions
One of my absolute favorite movies ever. Still regret never having seen it at the theatres.
The space station scenes were actually filmed at the "Westin Bonaventure Hotel" in downtown Los Angeles. The main lobby of the hotel was converted into a space ship.
Interestingly enough, this is also the same hotel where they filmed the famous horse chase scene in the movie "True Lies" where Arnold took a horse into the elevator. I believe they filmed about half a dozen movies here.
I actually found this hotel by accident during a trip to LA where I "randomly" stopped a taxi cab because it was getting too expensive. I told the cab driver to stop, then we wandered into the first hotel we could find. It turned out to be this hotel. I recognized it the moment I walked into the lobby.
I just watched this for the first time yesterday the timing on your reaction is everything 😭
As other comments have said, Astrophysicist Kip Thorne was involved with the film. I read a book that detailed everything Kip Thorne did for the film and the astrophysics involved. He coauthored a script with a screenwriter that later became Interstellar after Christopher and Jonathan Nolan got their hands on it. If I were to hazard an estimate I would say it is 98% scientifically accurate with the bulk of the inaccuracies centered around the slingshot maneuver around gargantua toward mann's planet. Reality would have been more complex to portray and would have slowed down the plot to portray in that moment. The most impressive scientific thing about the movie is Gargantua (the black hole.) Kip Thorne basically mapped out a bunch of equations that would basically map out the appearance of a black hole. He gave these equations to the special effects house that Nolan was using for the film and they used these equations to create the black hole model in the film. One or two years ago NASA got the first ever photo of a black hole. Fucking Kip Thorne's equations and the cg model they created were absolutely identical. He accurately modeled a black hole before we ever had an image of one.
the docking scene is literally my favourite scene in cinematic history
I always imagined Cooper finally making it back to Brandt on that planet and after some time hearing the voice of his father giving sage advice "start doing your part young man to repopulate the Earth" while shedding an ever so loving tear at that distant memory.😢
Really good Reaction . The line "because my dad promised me" always gets me .
Crying is okay and I cry occasionally especially when a friend is sad
and when you cry I'll cry along with you 🥲❤️🌻
