Please Note: We meant to say the 21st century, sorry about that! All of Interstellar’s time dilation phenomena threw us off.
Afortunadamente, esa inexactitud puntúa el nivel de su trabajo. El resto es una torre de falacias y estupideces jolivudienses infumables. Debería retirar esta estupidez de publicación y colgar una receta de alguna ensalada. Mentecato.
So you were off by 100 years... My issue with this movie is how it believes a federal government would exist after "...earth's many nations went to war...all consuming economically and socially...". Do you really think the Republic would survive? Or is it more likely that every state would go their separate way? In any case, how can anyone continue funding NASA after food wars? I watched this movie, and i ''like'' it. But it won't be a movie i'd recommend for casual debate over beer...someone could get hurt.
@@robertlee1497 Isn't that kind of the point of the movie though? That NASA and their projects are kept highly secret, and nobody believes in their mission, BECAUSE everyone is too short sighted to see that the planet itself will become unable to sustain life?
you also meant to say food shortage, not flood.
This is the one film that everyone had their jaws on the floor and stayed silent in their seat after the film ended. I don’t think I will ever experience a film quite like that in my lifetime ever again.
Oppenheimer looks promising
I always say this. I wish I could go back and relive the moment I felt after this movie ended, especially once he fell in the black hole. It was one of the best moments of my life!
I wish I could’ve seen it in theaters it must’ve been an incredible experience. Even watching it later on my laptop, I was amazed at how good a film it was
@@spazalicious definitely I hope it’s great
Arrival gave me similar feelings 💯
This movie is in my Top 10 of all time. I remember seeing this at our IMAX here in Indy and after the movie was over. The entire theater was cheering and clapping. This movie is a masterpiece in my eyes!
Can you name your other 9 favs?
It benefits from repeat viewing for sure
Absolutely, the sound track alone gives it an a+. Have to watch it a few times a year. Or month lol.
I have 2 daughters and the scene where he finally sees Murph at Cooper station makes me cry. I have to believe any man with a daughter feels the same way. Other than being a science fiction fan, my wife thinks that this is why I love this movie so much. It really comes down to how much a father loves his daugter.
This is my favorite movie all the time, and that part gets me everytime. It's the part where she says "because my father promised me he would" breaks me every time.
Why he even didnt care to look for his son 😭😂
@@taguro1006it is because Coopers son is an adult and does not need that much caring anymore, u can look it up on google❤
@@taguro1006ummm because he died? lol
The movie was made for daughters and their fathers. Perfect daughter/father film, maybe the only one. -Father of a Daughter
My favorite thing about this movie is it’s main antagonist is not a human. Sure dr brand and dr Mann could be seen as exactly that but imo they’re not. Brand saved the human race and dr manns ego and fear got out of control. The real antagonist is time. The entire movie is centred on the theme. In every single one of interstellars most important scenes with the biggest scores there is reference to a clock in zimmers work. Time is the scariest enemy of them all because we all succumb to it. It’s the most terrifying and common antagonist anyone can put in their story if done well
I think TARS steals the movie!
@@paulshawley6490 AGREED I LOVE THAT LIL MAN 😭😭
Entropy. If you haven’t read Asimov’s The Last Question, I highly recommended. Cheers
I was also thinking that in a space movie, the antagonist is often space itself (like 2013’s Gravity). But space itself is portrayed pretty warmly for a sci-fi film. The way the light shines on some of the spacecraft and the music that plays during the non-action space scenes are both so beautiful. To have time be the antagonist instead is absolutely genius.
You have put this so well!
When they come back from that planet and dude was like "i waited 20 years" they were gone for an hour.. mind-blowing how we think time dilation would work
3 hours - 7 years per hour.
It’s not how we think it would work. It’s how we KNOW it DOES work. Time dilation isn’t just a theory, and you could absolutely travel into the future by using it.
I interpreted the last scene with Brand being on Edmund's planet differently. She still has her space suit on, despite the air being breathable. So I think in that scene she's just arrived at the camp Edmund set up, and she's about to find him and wake him from hyper sleep. Which is a much nicer ending as well
Looks like brand formed a “grave” for Edmunds, meaning he died before she arrived whether it was due to time lapse or him running out of supplies. I do, however, agree that it looks like she just got there and she’s going to start researching the structures he had set up and is going to continue his work.
I never saw someone explain a complete movie that wonderfully
When they are arriving on Miller's planet, you can see the exact moment his ship is crushed by the giant wave. They JUST missed him.
what part exactly?
@@DevilDogMuNky Just as the we see McConaughey's ship descending through the clouds. The ocean becomes visible, and on the left of the screen in the distance, you can make out a ship being hit by waves. There are videos on KZhead about it too.
@@notoriousbmc1 There's nothing. There's no wave when the sky clears up when they descended
@@preach9 it's been years since I've watched it. Maybe you don't see the wave, but you can definitely see the wreckage. And with the time dilation, Miller just landed, so they just missed her.
her ship
Probably the best sci-fi drama of the past 2 decades or more. Christopher Nolan managed to make 2 excellent original sci-fi movies, Inception and Interstellar, just within a span of just 4 years! With the Dark Knight trilogy along with the now excellent Oppenheimer, he has become my favorite movie director of this generation. I do hope he does another sci-fi epic- Tenet was good sci-fi as well, but Inception and Interstellar were just mind-blowingly good.
With regard to the 'missing' 13 years, wouldn't that be explained by Cooper's fall into the black hole/tesseract? I'd have thought that it might be larger than that as time would move exponentially, the closer he got to the black hole? It's an immense film, I've watched it 5 or 6 times now and Hans Zimmer is a genius. His contribution to both Sicario and Dune elevated those movies from classics to masterpieces.
The movie should of been longer with more story about everyone murph cooper brand lars
Got into Big Brain mode after watching this...then I cried in bed that night wondering how can something I did not understand be so beautiful as well...
One of the best interpretations of the film I’ve heard to date! Trust me I’ve listen to a lot. Great great film; great break down.
Excellent, well-done explanation of the Interstellar timeline. Love that movie, thanks!
This movie is not just like any other movie.....literally everything we saw in this movie is beyond imagination....and can't be repeated in any other movie in near future....it's beyond something special....
One of those movies where you pretty much have to see it a few times to get the most out of it since there is so much going on.
Yup it gets better the more u watch
Agreed! I've watched this movie a couple times and I feel like every singe time there's something else I find I love about it
Christopher Nolan never fails to amaze me! What a movie!
This movie is perhaps one of a kind - where we need to see many other videos from different sources from time to time - to really understand what exactly happened - real or imagination. It has been 9 years as of 2023 since it came and we are still fascinated about the events in the movie. That is a true definition of a lasting impact!. And, still, i have some questions
The movie is absolutely class ❤
Except for Matt Damon’s character I agree. Great bit of sci-fi.
Time is always the most important characters in Nolan movies 💪💪
Definitely one of the best film ever
This is movie is in my top 3 all time. My god what a masterpiece
KZheadrs keep on making new videos "pretending" to explain something 'new' and people still keep coming to watch those videos. That's the beauty and attraction of this cinematic masterpiece.
The problem with time dilation on Miller’s planet is the differentiation between those in the surface and the command module still in space. There wouldn’t be that much of a difference as they would have been traveling at the same speed and both equidistant from the black hole. 24 years May have passed on Earth, but shouldn’t have for the other guy they came back to.
No, you missed the part where they said that the command module remains outside of the time envelope on Miller's planet and Gargantua, hence the 24 years difference.
I think your commentary is brilliant and the explanation is so thoughtfully organized and clear. Thank you so much. #Interstellar
What a GREAT review! 🎉
That explanation was so good it was like watching the movie for the first time 🙌
That time of year for another looper video about interstellar 😅
U left out all the times they went back into cryo sleep once they crossed into the gargantua system. in the novel, i think its said that they spent yrs in between miller's and mann's planet. Which was very far from the black hole. Then after they docked the spinning ships they would have had to go back to sleep for a few yrs to arrive back at the black hole near enough to the event horizon. The movie made everything seem so close, as if they were travelling to and fro within hrs
I have watched Interstellar at least three times. And I am always left with the same questions... after all that time in space, (over 23 years for the black guy), where did their food and fuel come from??? (Yes, I realize, it's just a movie).
I wish I can watch this movie again for the first time
Nice explanation
What a journey this film is. 👏
One question remains: the future humans who placed that wormhole near Saturn are they the descendants of the ones now floating around Sol system or of those from Edmund's planet?
That’s a good question
All of the above?
That's kind of what spoiled the movie for me. They are neither. Humanity died because they didn't have the technology to save themselves. Then for some impossible reason their future ancestors saved them by placing the wormhole that gave them the new planets and giving Cooper the tesseract technology to help Murph build the space cities. None of those things are possible without the future humans so they saved their own existence. But that in itself is like if you were about to be hit by a car and killed, but then your future self pushes you out of the way at the last minute. It's a paradox. Because if you died, how did you then live beyond your death to come back and save you? 🤷♂
@@SonnyK248 Ehm, by future ancestors, I'm guessing you mean descendants? To accept time travel you need to accept the possibility of effect before cause. Villeneuve's "Arrival" is a lesson in such thinking. The scientist managed to convince the Chinese general to change his mind by "remembering" the future from which she drew what needed to be done.
@@zvimur yeah descendants sorry 🤦♂️ but the difference between arrival and interstellar was interstellar really really sold people on the realism of the plot and how world class scientists had helped put it together. It is literally impossible to come back in time and prevent your own death. Because after you die that is it. There are no more humans to exist. So no one is coming back to save you. People say “that’s what paradox means” like it’s a get out of jail free card. It isn’t 🤣 at least in Arrival the girl was alive when she used the alien technology right? From what I can remember of it. Now if she died and then a billion years later the version of her that didn’t die used it I’d have a bigger issue 😂
Was Cooper referring to a war or general panic over food?
God i wanted to tear up just watching this video😭❤️, such an impactful film for me
7:53, you skipped the bit where we're told the equation is supposedly unsolvable, and that Plan B (reseeding with.... incubation machines?) was the only plan.
Interstellar will change your life, just watch it if you haven’t❗️ Christopher Nolan is the goat at daddy issue movies🔥🔥
Nice movie, nicely directed, good story line. I hope there is a part 2 sometime in future.
I think it's ended perfectly
@@farisa1116nope it ended with alot of mysteries
@@ProximaCentauri5.5that’s half the fun. Not every movie needs to sit down and explain everything to the audience, they can pretend people have brains and can figure out things and interpret it for themselves
@@hhj186I agree. And anyways, it ends on a good enough note that you don’t really need a second movie. In our heads, Cooper makes it to Brand in a drama-free ride, and they start a new colony on her planet, maybe eventually moving some more people to it as well. If they made a second movie, they would have to add a bunch of complications on Cooper’s journey, then probably add more complications with the colony or whatever. It just would make the first movie feel less fulfilling. And there’s no real cliffhanger here if we’re being honest
@@SJ-di5zu Yeah my point exactly. It’s typically why most sequels ends up being shit because the story was completely fine with just one incredible experience of a movie
I knew the beginning of the film took place in the 2060's since Nolan said the grandpa was a millennial.
Time is relative… until it’s not
'Interstellar' and 'Wrath of Man' are my favourite movies of all time!
Love this type of movies. To all commentators; please input your Best time travel movies of this caliber you recommend here. Thanks
It was just one wave on millers planet. That was being pulled by the gravitational force from the black hole. The planet was rotating.
it has to be several waves as they can see a wave going away in the distance 'those aren't mountains' and Cooper looks in the other direction to see another wave almost upon them. Great movie.
just saw this movie again in 4DX last night❤
Where can I watch this?
One of my favorite movies ❤
The end of movie made me cry although I’m very strong man.
Time is like wine. It ages quite fine.
Wait how were they three hours on Miller's? The entire scene was consistant and even the dialogue between cooper and brand in the ship...
0:43 Did it say “Leading to *flood* shortages worldwide.”?
I still don’t understand where they got the data from to figure out the gravity equation. Can someone help me out? It’s an overall good film, but I feel like the lack of that information holds the film down.
The robot has gear to record it.
The 13 missing years are probably the time dilation while travelling to and away from Miller's planet and Cooper falling into the black hole.
0:44 flood shortages ;) that said great recap!
I watched this movie with my sister and even though they tell you in the movie what is happening, my sister still needed me to explain to her what happened 🤣
Nolan is master of quantifying science in to emotions..
I’ve watched this so many times lol watched it while tripping last night and phewwwwww another level
Bruh same lol makes it much more emotional
watched it on shrooms and it had me thinking about our entire existence lmao
Is there possibility for a sequel of interstellar?
Christopher Nolan's not really big on sequels.
@@saljpal3 why would he leave a cliff hanger like that tho? When cooper went back to space by stealing the ship
wym why? he left it for our own interpretation @@neqii6514
Wow. Finally a video explaining this movie in a way my stupid brain finally understands.
The best quote to understand this movie... Whatever happened happened and couldn't have happened another other way - The Matrix
I love this movie so much
The one thing missing for me is what exactly is Cooper transmitting to Morph via the watch. Sure it's the data to solve the gravity equation but what data ?
my only question is how long did brandt had to wait for cooper to arrive, she never entered into the blackhole, did she slept all the time and then cooper woke her up? 6 decades later?
they were together during the slingshot that cost them 51 years - only 13 years is unaccounted for
@@olliverklozov2789 so theoretically he could get to the planet when she was about to start the process of the babies on the new planet? sounds like some form of happy ending i am not sure if those numbers add up but i will believe you thanks for your reply
Nolan the 'genius'
Theres something about this awesome movie that I just dont get. Ive asked my friends and none of them has a right answer, so my question is How is it that cooper was in murphy's library when she was barely a child?? I mean, how he got there?? Is he a human from a multiverse?? From the future and another dimension?? I just dont get. Is it a parallell world or universe?? I mean how is it that cooper was already in the 5th dimension but cooper was on earth???
Disclaimer first: What I’m going to take a stab at is not rooted in any science per se. TARS explained that the “bulk beings” lived in a 5-dimensional reality. The 4 dimensions I could think of are the 3 spatial dimensions (height, width, depth) and time. So, what would be the 5th dimension? Maybe gravity? (Since that’s what Cooper used to get the equation back to Murph from the future). Brand talked about “love” transcending space and time, so maybe it’s love (which steers all the way against the scientific grain, and would explain why the imagery tesseract was specific to Cooper - because I doubt another person falling through would see the same thing). I could talk about this movie all day. That’s my interpretation on it anyway.
Fun fact he didn’t want to use CGI so he planed 5000 I think amount of corn and after the movie he soled the corn and made back a lot of money back❤
So if the future civilization created a tesseract for them to communicate and save their species which are in their past, then how come did they survived in the first place? I know this is a case of time loop but everything has a beginning right? unless it's from another universe, saving their co-species on this universe.
0:43 "devastating flood shortages"? What?
Finally !!
It's pity that there is one scientific mistake/inaccuracy at the end. When Murph told her that to go to Emily she said ... "Emily might finish setting up the camp and about to go to for a long sleep." A short time of 'Cooper in the Blackhole' should mean decade(s) for Emily after they separated with the 'Slingshot'. Emily should have already been in Cryo-sleep for years by the time Cooper met old Murph.
00:40 devastating flood shortages….gonna be a long video mate
My favorite movie
The only part I don’t understand is the part where they say the wormholes can not be created naturally, so who placed them there? Can someone explain me? In the movie they show that they go through them once they got there but I don’t know yet how was that wormhole formed or created.
People who judge the ending hated it because they don’t understand it. I actually loved it the ending I thought it was perfection! Of course it makes it a paradox because cooper never really changed the past it was already pre destined that he would save Earth.
My favorite movie all time
This movie is a masterpiece
I always feel like I’ll be in Donald’s position when describing his younger years to Cooper. We’re at end stage capitalism in the US, every day there are new gadgets and the wealth gap is worse than ever.
of all the movies i missed seeing in the theatre . . . . . this one is the most regretful
Going to watch it today in imax, fcukin excited 😭
It’s absolutely the best sci-fi movie I’ve ever seen!! 👌👌
i watched this on the airplane during a trip when i was 11
Who sent Cooper a coded message on how to find NORAD if Cooper hadn't already gone. And if he had already gone, who sent THAT Cooper the message? WHO WAS THE FIRST COOPER!?!?! Also, awesome movie.
I believe Nolan came from future to direct this film😂😂
I will never understand why Doyle was just standing there & why he was so slowwww to get on the ship. And why didn’t they just have Case or Tars get the data. I get that they wanted to fly down there to see the world, but Case or Tars could have done everything. It pulled that lady out from the wreckage, carried her & the data… and Doyle is just standing there watching. Such an amazing movie though.
Maybe because the gravity of Miller’s planet is very high compared to earth making him longer to move OR Nolan stopped him from moving 😅
1) Doyle was probably frozen in fear due to humans natural Fight or Flight response. He can’t fight a wave and he wasn’t really seeing a way to escape so he froze. 2) Data travels around 99.7% of the speed of light. The Speed of Light is considered the universe maximum speed that anything could possibly travel. Now a black hole is a singularly with an indefinitely small point with infinitely strong gravity. Now past the event horizon the gravity of the black hole exceeds the speed of light. Meaning even if you were going the universal maximum, there would be no escape. So if they just dropped the robot inside nothing would come back because the literal data would be trapped by the black hole
If you watch the movie again, you'll see that Doyle was also far from the ship, almost half the distance between the ship and Brand. He asks CASE to get Brand and then starts moving towards the ship. By the time he reaches the ships hatch, CASE had brought Brand and he let her first get inside the hatch. I think in those final moments, he saw the big wave so close that he froze there for a couple of seconds and got hit by the wave. Also, like Dr. Brand and Cooper said in the movie, these people were scientists, they didn't had any good survival skills. They only had trainings on a simulator. It felt bad seeing his body float on the water after that.
@@ayushmate4174 I always thought he was closer than CASE and Brand, guess not. And I hadn't even thought about the natural human fight, flight, or freeze response, plus how they haven't had any real survival training. Makes more sense how he didn't make it in time.
Interstellar is actually a story about my uncle, this all really happened because he told me about it.
I saw it in the theater when it first came out. Rented the DVD and have seen it at least 5 times since then. I'm going to watch it again tonight....thanks to future technology (Lol😅) even though I could probably recite most of it and know down to each minute what will happen. Why? Because it is such an important story and Nolan's film is such a great movie, even if it didn't have the moral of times. BTW, that moral isn't to build a lot of spaceships. That moral is to take care of the planet we live on now. Someday we may go to other solar systems in the far away stars, but that is just as possible now as it was 5,000 years ago.
Shut up nerd
Surely you meant 21st century???
That's what I say.
I just watched it and this is not a movie you want a quick run down for. You have to see the movie yourself to actually understand the beauty of it.
All the time discussion aside my biggest take away from the film is that love transcends space snd time
the closer u get to the black hole, the more time dilation there is. He was literally inside of the black hole, and not for a long time. That would account for the missing hours.
Reading my mind I was think about this yesterday strange
I always thought why didn’t he just give himself the equation before he even left earth.
Cooper: murphhhhhhhhhh Uh what about Tom Cooper: yeah sure he is around somewhere iam sure of it
Movie like Interstellar can only be made once in a lifetime.
I need Corn beer
THE CONQUEROR LAUNCHES
Still a little confused on the Manns planet? So was relativity a factor here?
It was the Dust everywhere … did it for me 😉🎉
The only part that didn't make sense was the time space thingy inside the Black Hole
That was a representation of the 4th dimension
Why not humans set up a life on Brand's planter rather than cooper station which is 3 dimensional.... Brands planet was relatively easy for humans to live.... Clear oxygen, water supply etc etc....????.... If anyone figures out please reply 🙏
0:20, Allegorically speaking? If not, surely you mean 21st century. 2067 is deep into 21 century.
Holy crap! It’s Bella and Edwards daughter! Renesmee!
“Flood shortages”?
