Content at a glance
More filled segments mean stronger content.
Sex & Nudity
Two adults kiss once in celebration and characters marry and have kids, but romance is not a central theme.
Violence & Gore
Several intense perilous space scenes; characters die mostly from a hostile environment, and deaths are not bloody. Two characters fight on a hostile planet and one helmet cracks.
Profanity
Strong language is infrequent, including one use of the f-word and several other strong expressions.
Alcohol, Drugs & Smoking
The editorial review marks alcohol, drugs and smoking as absent.
Frightening Scenes
Intense life-threatening sequences and peril in space, with characters dying in hostile environments and oxygen rapidly depleting during a fight.
Other things to know
Branded products such as a Dell computer and Hamilton watch appear in the film.
Positives & learning
More filled segments mean stronger positive content or learning value.
Positive messages
The film centers on the fierce love between a parent and children and explores the power of love and the value of not giving up.
Role models
The father is attentive and responsive to his kids, but rule-breaking characters are rewarded while rule followers are portrayed negatively.
Representation
Female STEM characters are portrayed as intelligent but also fall into cliches of near-supernatural emotional intuition. The cast is almost all White with women of color absent, and the one significant character of color dies with less attention than a robot.
Learning
Families can discuss how Interstellar compares with other thoughtful space movies and how they would describe its genre.
