Critics Choice currently has it at 98, the highest of any Nolan film yet.

Time will tell if it stays that way.

Apparently some people are going around some sites and posting the ending. So be careful where you go.

That's it, I'm going into Interstellar lock down. See you in 2 weeks people.

I am crying right now. How could Phantasm have ruined this for me.

 

[DA_Champion]

Bye guys.

Un-Subscribed.

 

[Tacit Ronin]

I wait patiently for over a year, avoiding all spoilers so I could go in with a neutral slate, all taken from me in the blink of a peek.

Nay! Nay!

Some ones review from Reddit. Good review but says it wont be an oscar contender. Light spoilers on the opening.

Spoiler

Here are my thoughts, and before I get accused of being a shill (for not one, not two but a third time) look at my account history. I'm an awards voter and I like to share reviews on here from time to time:
It's hard to avoid the hype for a new Christopher Nolan movie nowadays, but I successfully walked into the theatre having no clue what I was about to see. Boy, oh boy was it a lot of fun. I won't give away any huge spoilers here, so don't worry.
I will say this; the plot (on paper) is stupid. Really stupid. I'm sure others found "Inception" to be very deep, I found it to be really silly (again referring to the plot). The ideas the Nolan Brothers come up certainly are wild and inventive, but when Chris gets behind the camera, that's when the magic happens. Because whether you're jumping into dreams or watching a billionaire fight crime, you're always having fun - and you believe it. I found myself often, quite literally, on the edge of my seat, steering my body to the side as if it would help our hero, Matthew McConaughney, out of some tricky spots. It's pure popcorn magic. He is an excellent writer and director, no matter how irrepressible the core ideas seem to me.
The basic plot (no spoilers) is that the (around 80 years) in the future, the earth has run dry of food, and the population is dying off. Dust storms are common, and lung disease is the new Ebola. Somebody obviously has to solve this crisis. Upon repeat viewings, I'm sure there are plot holes (and certainly scientific ones) in the script. There are certainly lazy moments, especially around the 30 minute mark where Michael Caine is basically just like "glad I ran into you, Matthew! Now you can do (spoiler alert) to (spoiler alert) and (spoiler alert)". Basically, what's called "the inciting incident" is based on pure coincidence and I think that's lazy scriptwriting. But all is forgiven for the other 170 pages. And in all honesty, the third act is very wacky. etter conditions, seriously. The largest screen in the U.S, on the largest format in the U.S. If you've never been to AMC's Lincoln Square Theater, their IMAX is incomparable. If you live within two hours of this theater, then it should be your only choice to see Interstellar. Nolan shot a hefty portion on 70mm film. If you've never seen a movie on 70mm, it's an experience that is quickly becoming extinct, so do it now. It makes it much more than a film, it becomes an event. This message has been brought to you by the IMAX Corporation.
Anne Hathaway is here in her normal fashion. As in, the person you just want to punch in the face due to her extreme annoyance. I can't fault her personally though, it's the part of the character. And she plays it with brilliance. A little pompous, a pinch of charm and just a hint of wit. It's the part she was born to play and she kills it. Matthew is... well Matthew. The guy could drive a Lincoln MKC and make me interested. Some of the other cast I won't really dive into as it may reveal spoilers in the film, but it's a generally well rounded cast and some really big names.
That said, this is not an awards contender, not in major categories anyway. Nolan's fanboys will be out in full form accusing the Academy of robbing him come February, but most of them haven't seen "Boyhood." I'm not saying the film isn't without it's merits, it's a really fun picture. Without a doubt, the most fun I've had in a theater in months, but it's not Oscar material. But that's not necessarily a bad thing. If you're expecting a big Nolan tentpole, here it is. In grand fashion, "Interstellar" pleases and delivers. And while it's never overly confusing, there are some moments where you really have to suspend belief and trust in our guide on this nearly three hour journey. And while the film runs that long, it certainly doesn't feel it. I was far too engaged and excited, that by the time the credits rolled I was shocked the trip had ended so suddenly. So buckle in folks, it's one hell of a ride.

I just find it funny how the reaction on reddit seems to be it's believable because it has more negativity than others. God forbid a film these days actually leaves people saying amazing things.

Wow so glad I didn't look at Phantasm's post. I figured it was just gonna be a joke/troll but I didn't want to risk it. Sorry some of you guys got spoiled. I think this is the end of the line for me too.

Wait. It's not a joke? Glad I played it safe and didn't read it. See you guys in a few weeks!

It's a joke.
