Goofs

At 2h 9mins, during the spinning docking sequence, the G force appears to be forcing the two pilots to lean in different directions, instead of in the same direction. This is correct, as the spacecraft is spinning about its central axis and centrepetal force will act on the pilots in this way. See more »

Quotes

[first lines]
Murph: Well, my dad was a farmer. Um, like everybody else back then. Of course, he didn't start that way.

Alternate Versions

The 70mm IMAX version is two minutes shorter than the regular 70mm, Digital IMAX, 35mm, and digital projection versions. This is because the end credits are played in an abbreviated slide-show form (rather than scrolling from bottom to top), due to the size capacity of the IMAX platters, which can hold a maximum of 167 minutes of film.

Best movie I have seen in my life
8 April 2015 | by Patterson13See all my reviews

This movie was the best written, acted, visual effected, etc. movie. This movie was the best movie I have ever seen. I am a huge Christopher Nolan fan and this movie was his finest. Matthew McConaughey turned in his best performance of his lifetime. Anne Hathaway was an amazing supporting actress and compared to her performance in Les Miserables, I have no idea how she didn't get an Oscar for this. The visual effects were more than just Oscar worthy. They were pioneering. I have never seen anything like it. One thing I would recommend is having a little previous knowledge about space. Not like Einstein stuff though. I would recommend you see this movie as fast as you can if you are a Nolan fan or not. I give this movie a rating of 97 out of 100.
