Christopher Nolan has become the most consistent and engaging filmmaker in the business and "Interstellar" is the perfect reflection of that. In today's world of sequels and reboots, Nolan has been able to coerce studio execs into funding big budget, innovative, and intellectually challenging epics. This is the latest such film and it's a good one. Matthew McConaughey stars as an astronaut who must save his family and the human race by trying to find a suitable planet to migrate to in another solar system. He is great in the film as are the supporting performers including Jessica Chastain, Anne Hathaway, and Michael Caine. The film tackles some heady concepts like interstellar space travel and relativity in a way that is accessible and interesting. The only misstep is the film's climax which is a bit of a stretch in both concept and execution. Nevertheless, this is a beautiful and challenging ride that is worthy of your time and money.
