The movie may have split opinions among critics and movie goers (it just missed out on the Flickering Myth Top 10 of 2014), but there is no denying that Interstellar has been a financial hit.
Over the weekend the sci-fi epic, directed by Christopher Nolan, passed $650 million worldwide. The movie is unlikely to catch up with The Hunger Games: Mockingjay – Part 1 ($695 million), but it can proudly say that it’s the only movie in the overall Top 10 that isn’t based on a franchise, a sequel or an adaptation.
