While this is a very good problem for a director to have, you could say that Christopher Nolan is a victim of his own success. He has made so many unique and stunning films (incl The Dark Knight, Beginningand Oppenheimer) that when he creates a more idiosyncratic picture, it easily gets lost in the shuffle of his other blockbusters. The best example of this is InterstellarNolan’s most overlooked film, now streaming on Netflix.

The plot of Interstellar

Interstellar has a much darker plot than other sci-fi offerings on Netflix: it presents a world where humanity is on the brink of extinction, and everyone’s collective survival depends on one brave pilot’s ability to navigate a state-of-the-art spaceship. near the wormhole. In another galaxy, habitable planets await him, and a ship full of frozen embryos gives him a chance to potentially save his species. But his journey will eventually take him through time and space, giving this intrepid pilot a chance to save himself, even as he focuses on saving humanity.

If you are a big fan of Christopher Nolan movies, streaming Interstellar on Netflix will reveal some familiar faces including The Dark Knight Published by graduates Michael Caine and Anne Hathaway. They are joined by other big-name actors, including Matt Damon (no stranger to weird space missions), Jessica Chastain (her Oscar-winning acting on full display), Casey Affleck (that Affleck you No see in all those memes of irritation) and Timothée Chalamet (he got his early space legs long before he starred in Dune). But the best performance comes from lead actor Matthew McConaughey, whose Space Daddy charisma and charm help anchor the film whenever it seems too Star Trek.

The success of Interstellar

While Interstellar currently exploring Strange New Worlds on Netflix, which originally launched to huge box office success. With a budget of $165 million, the film grossed an impressive $743 million. Despite this success, Interstellar never became a part of our collective culture in such a way The Dark Knight, Beginningand Oppenheimer he did, making it one of those rare hits that is rarely talked about anymore.

But the critics never stopped talking about it Interstellarand Nolan is ambitious science fiction the effort impressed them long before it went through the streaming wormhole and ended up on Netflix. On Rotten tomatoesthe film has a critical score of 73 percent, with critics generally praising the film for being a visual feast guaranteed to make you think. Also impressive is that it has an audience rating (via Popcornmeter) of 87 percent, making it the rare sci-fi film that has impressed even the snobbiest critics while being a downright crowd-pleaser.

If nothing else, Interstellar is probably the most beautiful sci-fi movie you’ll watch on Netflix. After all, the film won the Academy Award for Best Visual Effects.

It’s not hard to see why Interstellar everyone was so impressed…as long as they go into it with an open mind, it’s the kind of movie you show your Netflix-loving friend who insists he doesn’t really like sci-fi. That’s because the movie is about more than spaceships and black holes…it’s also about the human condition, including the fact that family bonds are greater than any cosmic forces.
