Like other Christopher Nolan films available on iTunes, the 16:9 IMAX scenes are cropped vertically to 2:35:1, so you miss a huge chunk of the IMAX image top and bottom.

I would so like to purchase this fim and Nolan's other films with alternating ratios, but will not do so until this is fixed.

Mind Bendingly Good

Incredible, heart felt...just stunning.

Avoid like the plague. Unlike the standard Blu-ray or 4K UHD disc versions this does not differentiate between the portions of the movie filmed in standard 35mm and IMAX. All we get is a slighly better version than the standard DVD. If you are interested in seeing what Christophwer Nolan intended then you would be better of buying the better version on disc.

Really good proper sci fi that doesn’t follow the usual pattern.

Very disappointed this doesn’t include the IMAX scenes in full screen.

How anyone could have claimed to have walked out of the cinema half way through this film neither has the brain or the appreciation of what is a masterpiece! Probably the best film I have ever seen. Thought provoking!

I Just wish id seen this in the cinema.

This movie cemented Chris Nolan as one of the greatest directors ever. His second best movie

Interstellar tells a unique and engaging story of human perseverance even when all hope seems lost, and with stunning visuals and perhaps the most incredible orchestral score of any film I've ever seen (of course composed by Hans Zimmer), I would without a doubt rate this as a film that everyone should see at least once. The plot is inspiring and deeply emotional, whilst maintaining near flawless scientific accuracy with the exception of the purely theoretical parts of the film. The only criticism I have of this film is that it can be rather confusing for anyone unfamiliar with the concept of relativity, so I would advise doing a quick bit of reading online if you want a better understanding of Interstellar's events before watching the film. Aside from this, Interstellar exceeds all expectations, even of a director as acclaimed as Christopher Nolan. Remains to this day my favourite film, and a definite five star masterpiece.

Wow, just WOW!! Blew my mind. Well acted, well filmed, great cgi, great soundtrack. This film took me up, down, sideways and then stood me on my head.

MUST WATCH

For everything this film does badly see ARRIVAL for what it does in perfection.

The interesting ideas get lost between mind boggling plot lines and mediocre editing.

Wrong director for a potentially interesting film and story. This is not Nolan’s finest hour.

Incredible acting by McConaughey, Hathaway and Caine.

Great script, great storyline, great directing by Nolan & finished off by a soundtrack from THE Hans Zimmer.

What more could you ask for?

Absolute masterpiece

Chapeau brothers Nolan, a beautiful and very well executed film, this will be a timeless classic for ages to come.

This is a masterpiece and truly beautiful at times.

I'm a massive sci-fi fan and this is one of my favourite films.

This film deserves a much better rating than 8.6/10 - those 1 star ratings are ridiculous!

Such a great film so much went into this film and it paid off was hooked from start to the end wish the film went on for longer! Didn't want it to end 😀

Generally a pretty good film, even if you aren't a fan of sci-fi. Plenty of human drama and 3D characters that you can get involved with. Good special effects/CGI which don't overwhelm the film. The science was generally believable (I'm a physicist to doctoral level) although I found the external appearance of the black hole questionable. The male lead Cooper who was apparently an aerospace engineer and experienced astronaut did, I think, ask some pretty stupid questions.

The biggest problem was the sound quality, especially during the first hour or so and especially the lead character Cooper who mumbled most of the time. Later on, as he dropped his hick farmer accent, he became more understandable.

This film started promisingly but went on too long. The last third of the film was too strange.

A really love this movie and I just couldn't not to buy it. Thank you. Actors <3 Jus the idea is blowing my mind.

Seriously one of the best films you'll ever see. Amazingly written and acted out. A must watch.

Overall enjoyable some of scientific concepts a bit difficult to convey in a film.

...Epic, Hopeful, Inspiring.

I found myself spellbound by the thought provoking innovation of this film. Fantastic visuals and a thought provoking exploration of the infinity of time and gravity and ultimately the future of the human race as a species and its survival in the universe. But as good as it is its no better than Contact, Inception or Prometheus. If you enjoyed these three you'll love Interstellar. Worth mentioning that this is MM's best performance ever and the soundtrack is just brilliant.

This film could have been amazing!! The dialogue and storyline was great! But they portrayed it horrendously. They made it so confusing and hard to understand. So unrealistic and a waste of time to watch, you'd have to watch it 10 times to understand it! A complete joke. It has action and good acting but if you don't understand where they are or what's going off then the film is poor. It created more twists and turns than there is roundabouts in the US! Such a disappointment! Conclusion: 1* for storyline and 1* for acting, but the portrayal of the storyline was horrendous and confusing! A must watch!! to see how bad they made this movie!!

People are on about the physics being wrong. Okay, red shift and blue shift get distorted within a black hole, but the physics is correct! I mean, they're using it in schools now to teach science lessons, and I love the ending with Cooper within 5-dimensional space (probability space). Absolutely epic

Brilliant.

Visual style and FX work are top notch. Acting is mostly good. But when you make your movie up for being scientifically accurate, the many glaring plot holes and questionable character motivations don't mix too well with that.

This film is amazing, truly fantastic, the best sic-fi for an age, and all plausible which makes it even better, be sure to watch it, as it is both interesting, concept stretching, emotive, and beautiful. The actors are without question excellent, and the whole story is beautifully employed. As previously mentioned by other reviewers the music followed the dialogue perfectly.

Watching the trailer for the first time I was not impressed, excited, yes, but not impressed. To my ignorant and stereotypical expectant-self it seemed to be just another classic cheesy Hollywood blockbuster. If you have read my reviews before you will know I'm not a man to acknowledge many of my 'errors', as a previous friend once put it. But this time I was wrong.

Watching the film for the first time after its release on my iPod at school my excitement from the trailer was retained. But this time there was something else, from the opening shot I was hooked. I didn't properly take in the first words due to my hookageness, so hastily rewound the film to listen again. This does not normally happen to me, but then this film is not normal.

Every once in a while a film comes along. A film with the air of magical brilliance; that both captivates and entices the viewer into a instinctive desire for more. This film has that and more.

In order not to ruin the plot I will attempt not to reveal much of it, that is always the interesting part of reviews, but from the first yell of the genius that is Christopher Nolan we are transported across the dimensions and galaxies to a world that seems so close and yet so far. The problem in the film is simple, earth is not happy. Solution - Find a new earth for human race. The man for the plan is a seemingly calm and calculated yet fervently charged Matthew McConaughey, if I was gay he'd be the man for me. The graphics are that as one would expect for a Christopher Nolan film. Although there are one or two questions and slight preferences for me, such as the endless stream of infuriating tears from the bottomless pit that is Anne Hathaway's tear duct. The film works and works beyond compare, this film should have won Oscars. But don't worry Christopher Nolan it has won me instead.

Great movie

Absolute brilliance in a sci fi film a must watch for any fan of cosmology and astrophysics

Disappointing film. No way would I walk out on my kids like that and hard to believe any father would. Shame if they do! Forgetting that, he's a million miles away, in another galaxy, in a black hole, in a library and then he's back home and problem solved. I've got an imagination but that's a stretch by anyone's. Great effects and the actings okay but pleasssse? Get a grip

Why cast Matt fecking Damon in this half way into film. Couldn't bring myself to take it seriously after that

I never watch sci-fi films but watched this and couldn't recommend it enough! Very dramatic and engaging! Would highly recommend

I really do not understand all the hype and 5 stars. I watched the film and struggled not to fast forward parts and I love a good film.

This film is absolutely amazing in all aspects I could watch it 10 times over and I enjoy it more each time, great cast amazing story and effects believable, a must watch a masterpiece in movie making.

They tried to hard to be clever with this and they failed, ruining it. The writer’s and director’s skill did not match their aspirations. The science behind it was poorly explained. The dialogue is inaudible had to turn the TV up to max to hear the actors but then the sound effects would deafen. If they had made the film shorter it would have been better, it has to much dull packing.

This film manages to merge science with art in a way that hasn't been achieved since 2001 A Space Odyssey. All the actors deliver wonderful performances and the storyline is complex enough to make me want to watch it over and over. A future classic. I would choose my friends based on whether they like this film or not!

This is honestly the best film I have ever seen in my whole entire life I could watch over and over again and never get bored it was that AMAZING 💕💞💓💗💖💘💘💟

Definitely worth every penny, Nolan continues to not disappoint, a master piece in film.

Up there with Blade Runner.

This film is slow, tedious and so boring.

Overlong, overblown, over-rated. Yes, it is gorgeous to look at. But the plot is ludicrous, the acting wooden, and the script full of comic-book cliches: every five minutes someone is "going to save the world". Hans Zimmer is a one-trick pony - his cosmic organ soundtrack is like being hit over the head for three hours with a sledgehammer. It's a shame the undoubted brilliance of Nolan's cinematography couldn't have been matched by a more believable story less dependent on absurd coincidences rather than this self-indulgent hokum. Sorry, but 2001: A Space Odyssey this is not.

Everything about this film is amazing - Nolan's directing, van Hoytema's cinematography, Zimmer's music. Even on scientific terms the film is believable - no crazy sci-fi aliens/lasers/warp drives. As is Nolan's tradition, the storyline is incredibly complex, requiring 2-3 full views to understand, but it's rewarding to finally get the whole plot, and visually it's simply stunning.

I am a huge lover of films, and put this on not knowing what to expect. But I can easily say that it was the best film that I have ever watched before in my life. It was so gripping and not at one point in the film could you relax. Simply amazing, and will definitely be watching it again, because i can not stop thinking about. If you are debating watching this film, it is A MUST!!!!!

This is a slow burn film, but worth watching every minute.

It's not about flashy action although the visuals are excellent.

This is about a very human story that will have to become a reality one day.

The plot is excellent, acting is very good, the direction is superb.

Held me all the way through.

I highly recommend watching this film.

It's the best I've seen in a decade or maybe two.

ENJOY!

What drivel! Lead actor is a mumbling idiot - trying to talk and act so uber cool he’s illegible. The cringing sentimentality makes you want to puke. Cliche riden waste of money. 55 minutes in and I’m hoping the world ends so that I’ll be put out of my misery.
