Christopher Nolan's Interstellar was good. But this movie is literally the best! James Marsden pulls off the role perfectly, making me feel his hope and his pain in every scene. Ariebella Makana was great as well, and Greg Collins was a hoot.
Now, on to the meat of the movie. (SPOILER ALERT). I think the exposition of the movie layed out the story perfectly. The world, suffering from the aftermath of the the New Green Deal, depends on Taco Bell's Nacho Fries. I love how it especially stresses how important these fries are by showing the countries, like Borneo, that don't have Nacho Fries. It shows that without the Nacho Fries, there is chaos. I also liked how they didn't include KFC as Taco Bells partner in the movie. And they made a small subplot about that. I realized that the explanation was there while rewatching it, hearing Danny, A.K.A James Marsden, say, "I haven't seen this riled up since KFC was shut down." Genius marketing scheme and hilarious plotline! I especially loved the emotional scene between Danny and his daughter Lily. I was tearing up at that point in the movie. It was probably the saddest part of the movie. However, it directed us quickly in the direction of the action, which geniusly balanced my emotions and got me back into the story. The effects during the big take off were awesome! But then when they revealed that Danny had to go alone, I almost left! They got us attached to the other 2 astronauts, only to reveal that the Nacho Fries were a 1 person retrieval. But I got back into it when I learned that the ships AI was there and I sat back down. I like how they secretly roasted Burger King when Danny said, "Whew! This suit smells like Chicken Fries!" I promise you when I say the entire theater busted a gut. I liked how they made it to where if Danny didn't go into hypersleep that he would die of old age before reaching the Nacho Fries. And the inclusion of what was happening back on Earth all along was a solid move. Then came the black hole galaxy. The visual effects were so stunning that I literally let my jaw drop. I laughed so hard when, while flying over the first planet, Danny realized that there was a crater shaped like Colonel Sanders. It was another genius marketing scheme. I think they could have made Danny's journey on the first planet a little more action packed, but I was satisfied with his run in with the Charanmarg (that's the name of the aliens on the planet. Sorry, I just really love this movie!). Also, his run in with the mysterious man on the second planet intriuged me at first. And when he revealed that he was Danny from an alternate reality, my mind literally exploded. I like how they had alternate Danny explain how he got there (Through the black hole) and why. I didn't understand why the alternate universe hated the Nacho Fries, but hey, this is just science fiction. When alternate Danny and Danny visited the third planet, I was slightly confused. But when the squid monsters giant tentacle shot up out of the murky black surface, I think I soiled my pants. I love that alternate Danny ultimately sacrificed himself just so Danny could escape the planet. That's the only competitor for the Father Daughter goodbye scene. When Danny tried to call back to Earth, which he had done before, and static came through, I was confused. But when Danny saw that 1 million years had passed since he went onto the planet, I almost bawled my eyes out there in the movie theater. This is what I was talking about when I said I felt Danny's pain. And when he said, "For Lilly... For Lilly..." I promise that a tear rolled down my cheek. When Danny started to fly through the black hole, I really thought he was going to die. But when he came out on the other side seeing all the Nacho Fries just floating in excess in the middle of space, I admit that I stood up and cheered along with Danny! And when he went back through the black hole and realised that it turned back time to just days after Danny had left Earth, I cheered again! I loved the emotional scene between Danny and his daughter Lily when he came home. I think Taco Bell really made it the best ending ever when Lily looked at the barrels of Nacho Fries and asked, "Did you do that dad? Did you get those?" And then Danny lifts her up on his shoulders and says "I did it for you, Lily. I did it for you." And then eats a Nacho Fry.
Overall, best movie ever. No rival. I will rewatch this over and over and over. And my kids love it too! Really hoping for a sequel!
