Daryl Smith and Elvis Illescas review Christopher Nolan's Interstellar and then dig deeper to ask some important questions about the story.
First up, their review--Quality, Story Depth, and Likelihood to Refer it to others. And here are some of the deeper questions:
- Who is your favorite character in Interstellar? Why?
- Which characters have the most faith (whatever it may be in)? Is their faith rewarded?
- Which characters reject faith? How does it work out for them?
- Much of the film is about the perseverance of humanity to survive. Is this possible outside of faith?
- Is there truth in science? Can science be a type of savior?
- Do you think God exists in the world of Interstellar? Why or why not?
