You don't have to like space, science, or even Matthew McConaughey to love Interstellar. The score alone makes you feel like you're floating through space and time, drifting into unknown universes. Then the plot comes in and rips out every one of your heartstrings, drives you to tears, makes you insufferably angry, until it lets you go as you ascend into something amazing. There are good movies about the space and time continuum, and then there's Interstellar. There is no other movie that has been made or ever will be made that rivals the feeling you get watching this. Everyone has to watch this movie.

Let's be real...does anyone expect a Netflix original to be anything special these days? Not every movie has to stun with its plot and characters, and Carry-On certainly doesn't do that. The crime in this movie is completely and totally unrealistic, but who really cares? I never got the impression that this movie took itself very seriously, especially when you consider Jason Bateman is playing a villain. I generally enjoy action packed thrillers, and the fight/conflict scenes in this movie deserve some more recognition. The fighting choreography was interesting 9especially since this takes place in an airport) and the main characters aren't making stupid decision after stupid decision. Was this a great movie? Absolutely not. But OK movies exist and can still be fun if you're looking for something new to watch.
