Some parts of this movie are really bad. The only redeeming feature is how it demonstrates Einstein's general relativity and the concept of space-time in action. Unfortunately, everything else falls short. I also disliked how the actors delivered their lines as if they were constantly whispering. I could barely hear their dialogue, so I had to keep turning up the volume. Then, when the action scenes started, the sound would get way too loud, forcing me to lower it again. This imbalance in sound levels is a clear sign of poor sound engineering. 1) I ended up skipping through the overly dramatic scenes because I never felt invested in the characters. The film failed to make me care about them. The emotional parts, especially between the main character and his daughter, felt forced and unconvincing. She grows up, gets mad at her dad… but honestly, who cares? 2) It was ridiculous how they portrayed NASA recruiting a pilot from a farm and sending him straight to space. Really? Where have you seen NASA doing that? Astronauts require months of intense preparation before a mission, and this guy didn’t even know what the mission was about! He acted like he forgot everything about relativity and space-time, as if he were a college student. This is completely unrealistic. 3) Then, they randomly enter a wormhole, land on a planet, and encounter a black hole, supposedly only 100-200 miles away. That’s absurd—anyone that close to a black hole would be instantly sucked in. This portrayal is just not believable. Overall, if you have no background in quantum physics or astrophysics, you might enjoy the movie. But for someone who understands these topics, it's hard to overlook the inaccuracies. While the parts showing relativity and space-time were interesting, the rest of the movie was painfully boring.
