Interstellar’s Most Enduring Quality Is What People Used to Hate About It
Christopher Nolan’s sci-fi spectacle is fascinating precisely because of what so many pegged as its fatal flaw in 2014: its unabashed emotionality.

I have some quibbles with the movie, but mostly: a gorgeous & immersive ode to our own irrelevance in the vast world, a plea for us to realize that our immaterial nature does not absolve us from morality, an exploration of what defines a life and how our only legacy is other people. I wept so much.

If you are in the Columbus area, Train Dreams is playing at Gateway Film Center. It is ABSOLUTELY worth the effort to see it in a theater.

While its plot might sound eerily similar to ‘How to Train Your Dragon,’ ‘Predator: Badlands’ manages to give new life to the ‘Predator’ franchise by upending its central premise.
