The Early Word on Interstellar...

The early reviews are making their way out on Christopher Nolan's ambitious science fiction saga, Interstellar. In this day and age, the higher a film's expectations, the more pundits stand poised to hurl barbs and furrow brows. Phrases like "flawed" and "near masterpiece" will abound, so detailed reviews are to be avoided like the plague, as there are bound to be many who feel entitled to discuss more than they should.
There is one review that might bear paying attention to - consider this excerpt from Scott Foundas' review at Variety: "...Interstellar reaffirms Nolan as the premier big-canvas storyteller of his generation, more than earning its place alongside The Wizard of Oz, 2001, Close Encounters and Gravity in the canon of Hollywood's visionary sci-fi head trips. Global box office returns should prove suitably rocket-powered."

We'll meet back here in a week or two to discuss, but by all accounts Interstellar cries out to be seen on the largest format screen you can find.
