this was pretty good, or at least I felt like I got 7 bucks worth of entertainment @ matinee pricing . Unfortunately it involved time-travel, which never really makes sense but the visuals were good and they explored some principles of physics that I don't think anyone has ever tried to portray in a movie before all at one time. Einsteins theory of relativity, black holes, event horizons, gravity wells of stars, etc.
I guess my one gripe other than the time-travel bit is they probably tried to tackle too much story line, even in a movie that is well over 3 hours long. Still a good one to catch at a decent commercial theater on a cold snowy day.

When I saw it all I could think of was that the brightness was too high killing the blacks. Pretty good flick all in all though. I really enjoyed the audio.

I took my sons and two of their friends down to see it on the IMAX in Denver. Good flick, but not really worth $100 in tickets and a couple of hours of driving through a snowstorm.
I was impressed that they ... wait, no I shouldn't talk about that part, it's a spoiler. For those who have seen it, the key part at the end. Don't think any movie has ever tried to convey that concept? They did a pretty good job of it.

I really think ending a movie or story is the hardest part of any writers job, but they did ok on this one.
