Interstellar
A great movie. Visually stunning, even more so than Gravity. Very hard on the Science scale, obviously not Apollo 13 hard. Alot of the elements have commonalities with 2001: A Space Odyssey, a film which was visually excellent however outrageous pacing issues which meant sitting through that movie was a literal Odyssey I couldn't endure.
While a lot of people fawn over Matthew McConaughey's performance, I found for most part to be adequate and most of the "McConaughey effect" is more about him not doing such dire movies rather than him improving his art. The real star of the movie for me were the robots. They were sharp, they do awesome things, they surprise you with their initially outwardly seemingly alien design and their internal limitations.

and I rather that she be able to act instead of the usual mistake of casting MMA fighters or a looker who can't act. Arnolds/Rocks are a rare find. It is also a lot easier to have an actor act like they can fight instead of trying to teach a fighter how to act.
