A film by Ridley Scott. Despite the length of the movie, the storyline moved fairly quickly. A must watch for drama seeker for sure. The effort of the main actor actress by LadyGaga and Adam Driver was vastly overshadowed by the old timers Al Pacino and Jeremy Irons.
As usual one cannot find fault from Ridley Scott in terms of cinematography and general making of the film. I would rate it 3/5, point deducted from relatively poor acting from the main actor.

Strong point: Based on a novel, strong clever scripts, very good character development, great acting by the veterens no doubt. Suspense as it required, actions when it needed to, dark visions in their respective dreams adds to the undercurrent.
Point to add: Its not an action filled series, but when it did, it hits pretty well. Everyone we see in this series are of strong character and intelligent, so expect strong scripts to go along with them.
Sound: 3/5 Video : 3/5 story line: 4.5/5 if not 5/5.
Conclusion: Highly recommended for those who loves drama, actions, and strong acting piece of rare gem. It is a serious piece of story.
Top Gun Maverick is one of those rare home release Atmos tracks that makes decent use of the height speakers. Not amazing, certainly could be better but compared to about 90+% of the Atmos movies out there, it's one of the better ones.
Overall sounds good, but could be better.
Thank goodness Auro-3D exists.
Agreed. I think for this movie Auro-3D sounds better. But I haven't truly made any proper comparison, just switching about during critical scenes.
Finally watched Interstellar in movie, had never seen it before (even trailers) and been postponing until I get better AV system. But then GSC is showing it for the WB100 anniversary, so immediately took the chance to watch it.
WHY NO ONE TOLD ME IT'S A SAD STORY
When the movie was out years ago, I went to cinema alone (so as not to be disturbed by family or friends), chose the best perfectly positioned seat of an big screen theater with best Atmos sound available, to enjoy the best cinematic experience for this film.
I ended up trying to hold my tears as I was there alone sitting besides a huge guy with lots of muscle, just in case that fella thought I was a sissy eunuch.
Ps: Just guessing you must be at middle age with your own young kid, am I right?

From my experience, any movies with time travel or something of that sort will usually end up a sad movies, unless you are talking about the Marvels et al where emotion is literally a non existence entity.
