    Film review: Interstellar

    Watchable sci-fi lite space adventure from Christopher Nolan. America is a giant 1930s style dustbowl and mankind is facing famine. Matthew McConaughey plays an ex-NASA pilot turned farmer who chances upon a secret plan to save everyone and so dumps his kids for the chance of some real action. Disappointing script, riddled with holes. Read The Death of Grass by John Christopher for a more subversive take on famine and the end of civilisation.
