I know there are some films that people get very passionate about. This passion is generally aroused because the movie is of a certain genre that they love or features an actor/director that they admire. There is no doubt that Interstellar is such a movie. It is a sci-fi film directed by Christopher Nolan and as such is a film that many people will have a big emotional investment with. If you read a few of the other reviews you will see this shining through.

The film tells the story of earth as it struggles with food shortages. A worm hole is discovered in the solar system which gives mankind a chance to find a new home and source of food. The challenge facing those that leave and Cooper (Matthew McConaughey) in particular is leaving the people they love back on earth.

I found the film beautifully shot, but a bit ponderous at times. The cast oozes quality though, so it's never dull. I will watch the film again to see if a second viewing may result in a more passionate response! If you are really into sci-fi movies or Christopher Nolan I am quite sure you will absolutely love the film.
