[Fatemeh Mehrasa · Rating 5 out of 5]

بگذریم از سرگیجه ی کرم چاله ها
جاری شویم در بعد چهارم
و بیاویزیم پنجمین بعد را
سقوط در گذشته به التماس بازآرایی آینده ای که به ورطه پیشینه سُر نخورد..... .

من با کرور کرور فوبیای ارتفاع
در ژرفای کرم چاله ها به پرواز خواهم آمد
و نور را وداع خواهم گفت
در غلظت تاریکی بلعیده خواهم شد
و وزن این گمگشتگی سمین
استخوان هایم را در هم خواهد شکست
اما
گذشته را خواهم شست .....
گذشته ای که منجر به آینده ی تو خواهد شد!


و اصلا
چه کسی می داند
شاید الهام های گاه و بیگاه امروز من
ندای فریاد شده ای باشد از ثمین ای
که در دهه ها بعد در تعلیق است!..... .

عالی بود روایتی از علم و شاید پیشگویی در مورد آینده

[Jelle Starremans · Rating 2 out of 5]

The Nolans are great storytellers on the screen, but on the page it falls flat.

[Rao Javed · Rating 4 out of 5]

Before reviewing this screenplay one must acknowledge that is not the, Interstellar, that many of us might have seen. It is actually one of the rudimentary drafts of, Interstellar, which was visualised by, Kip, and transcribed by, Jonathan Nolan.

One of the most promised fact of this screenplay was that it will be a science fiction, but I hate to mention that it was more then just a science fiction. It was a story of mankind trying to find their way out of the darkest period of time, it was a story of mankind trying to fight back nature and it was a story of mankind endeavoring to seek hope. However, there are more things that I hate to mention.

This screenplay was indeed a wonderful science fiction, which was exceeding beyond the realms of cliché,and propounding a magnificent story. However, there is yet something that I hate to mention.

One of major problems of judging a book is that it is not mostly examined by prejudices of comparison rather then the prospect of elements in the story. Hence, if we compare this screenplay with the draft scratched by, Christopher Nolan, then I hate to mention that it was not that awesome. Still, once I had mention this then there is nothing more I would hate to mention.

Over and above, Jonathan Nolan, did not totally disappointed.

I saw the movie and It was totally amazing. Especially I adore Scientific movies, I found it very understandable.
The director used unbelievable effects. I think the movie achieved this success due to this vision effects.

The changes that Christopher Nolan made in the original script (this) only prove his genius further.

[Miss F. · Rating 4 out of 5]

Yeah I'm definitely glad Nolan rewrote it.

[Dõmantas Èskis · Rating 3 out of 5]

Read the Original of 2008, it was quite poor, glad Christopher Nolan rewrote it and made almost completely different story which was better in all possible ways that we've seen in the cinema. This movie remains probably the best I've ever seen on the big screen. I bet it will become a modern day classic.

this book is about a group that needs to find a new planet because the world is dying and they went to a new galaxy to find it but none of them have if so it was all a waste of time but so many more things will happen

[Agnes Dzik · Rating 5 out of 5]

This made me tear up a lot. It was very good

[Jason Pryde · Rating 3 out of 5]

The movie reviews were mostly about the special effects and the backstory of the research and actual physics used to represent black holes and the like.
I never watched the movie.
The story, in the book at least, was much more about relationships and how, in the science fiction world at least, they are not bound by space or time. How, even when sucked into a black hole outside of our own galaxy, an astronaut can communicate to his daughter back on earth thru interference with gravity and its affect on things around her.

This is science fiction. And like most science fiction, it is a fantastical hypothesis on mankind's future.
A fine dusting of theoretical physics (no PhD required) over standard apocalyptic prophesy.

The take away is that there is a higher power, looking out for us earthlings, and its the earthlings of the future, coming back to save civilization. No advanced alien species or supernatural apparition. Just mankind deploying some plain old ingenuity to get us out of a scrape.

Kind of disappointing really.

good

[Jonathan Mannhart · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is not the screenplay to the movie Interstellar.

This is an earlier screenplay for a movie that is >50% different, and I very very very very much would want to see this movie. It should be 3+ hours long and would be the one of the most epic sci-fi experience imaginable. This script is crazy and original and wonderful.

[Alcatraz Dey · Rating 4 out of 5]

If you read this you will realise why Christopher Nolan is a genius. He changed the script and the.movie has some awesome visualisations. But the research and efforts gone into the screenplay is seriously mind-blowing. Hats off to Nolan

[Eva · Rating 5 out of 5]

This is a great book!! loved how they described the planets. Also in a way this book was creepy!!! One cool thing is the movie version of the book is exactually the same down to every little detail. But do not watch the movie before you read the book because it will make no sense.

[Jessica Ghost Writer · Rating 5 out of 5]

Rather touching especially when I recalled those father daughter moments from the film. A great film with outstanding script!!

[Addy Choi · Rating 4 out of 5]

Amazing but kind of confusing. Not much emotion in space.
