Interstellar has, so fucking THOROUGHLY, driven me to an entirely new dimension of emotion. The characters and story are easily the absolute best, I've EVER seen. The special effects are jaw-dropping. The scientific accuracy is perfect. Literally perfect.
The film drives you through intense emotion like no other film, dare I say it, ever will. There's one scene, which I will NOT spoil, that literally had me shaking in my seat, overwhelmed by a sense of pure intensity. My heart was ready to go out of my chest.
I was sweating and breathing harshly. And when it ended, I was crying at the newfound realization of what a single scene can do. But that was ONE MOMENT, in a three-hour masterpiece. The music...oh my god, the music. The music is so brilliantly intense and emotional.
It's the same three notes, played upon with different instruments and tempos and styles. A single theme which keeps coming back.
But at several points, it begins with a simply synthesizer, and over the course of minutes, picks up, and up, and up, in what is EASILY the greatest musical crescendo I've ever encountered.
Unlike almost any song, this melody NEVER silences as it plays. It never slows or whittles down. It only gets higher, and higher, and higher. The result is music that feels justifying of a grand realization of the nature of the entire Universe.
Pure euphoria, in the most genuine sense. By the credits roll, I was frozen. And I remained until I was forced out. I went home without saying a word. Without doing anything except contemplating the unbelievable experience.
When I settled in my room, for the first time in a decade- no, the first time in my ENTIRE LIFE, I cried myself to sleep. Even now as I type these thoughts I am at a complete loss for what to say. Nothing can possibly do the movie justice.
