If you get the pun from my summary, you'll probably like the film as much as me. If you like physics, you'll probably really enjoy this film. If you wanted a more scientific/grandiose/unique/different version of Gravity, you'll probably LOVE this movie.
Before I go on, I have one sole complaint about this film (well 2 but one of them contains a spoiler.) My main complaint is that while Zimmer makes another excellent soundtrack, this movie has an Inception-esque problem. The music becomes way too loud at certain points, enough to make the audience not being able to hear some of the important dialogue. The second one refers to someone breathing a bit too long. I won't say more as not to spoil.
The movie is headlined by an excellent performance by McConaughey as Cooper, a farmer/engineer/astronaut, as well as a well done supporting cast including "Murph" by a few people, Hathaway as Amelia, a fellow astronaut, and Caine as Amelia's father. The visuals are beautiful as is the cinematography, the worlds are well-made, and the plot, while convoluted (though not as complex as some of Nolan's other works) works out well.
As someone who finds the concept of black holes fascinating, I highly enjoyed this film.
8.8

Is this life? If everything is realistic, what is fake? Am I, in a dream?
The concept of this film is excellent, take the idea of dream interpretation and turn it into a film, add some Nolan-style plot and some blockbuster visuals and Bam(!), you have this glorious film.
A little complaint before beginning this review is that Zimmer's music becomes a bit too loud at certain points. However, there is rarely dialogue so it isn't a problem.
* Dicaprio, Page, and Cotillard star as the main three characters of the film and all three of them give excellent performances.
Page's dream sequence in the early portion of the movie is fascinating and I wish they spent more time dwelling on what can happen in a dream than go quickly into the action in the later sequences.
The plot thickens, almost a bit too much and then it goes back to the guns and explosions seen in a blockbuster. It somewhat relies a bit too heavily on these guns in the next dream sequence but thankfully it goes back to the plot. I won't say much more as I don't want to spoil anything. Speaking of which **: * Also, his score is excellent, "Time" being one of his best pieces, which is saying a lot.
** In terms of the ending, I do not think he was. See, no spoilers and I gave my opinion.
