Comments
  • The lead, which is usually supposed to touch on all sections, does not have anything from scientific accuracy section.
  • "His brother, director Christopher Nolan, had" — You've already mentioned him being a director in the development section.
  • Add the year for Miss Julie, Transcendence, Inception, The Dark Knight Rises, Man of Steel.
  • "was scheduled to last for four months" — Scrap "for".
  • "and involved hundreds of extras as well as some 130 crew members, most of them local" — Rephrase this as "and involved hundreds of extras in addition to 130 crew members, most of whom were local"
  • "mock spaceships" — Spaceships were used to represent the planets? Strange. Are you sure this is right?
  • "situation on Earth portrayed in early scenes" — "situation on Earth portrayed in the early scenes".
  • Wikilink "terabytes".
  • "asymmetrical, so the finished black hole ignored it.[59] Nolan found the finished effect was understandable, provided he maintained consistent camera perspectives: "What we found was as long as we didn't change the point of view too much, the camera position, we could get something very understandable"" — Looks a bit vague. Do clarify this.
  • "The portrayal of what a wormhole would look like is considered scientifically correct" — According to whom?
  • "Correct depiction of the Penrose process was also praised" — Who praised it? Critics? Do clarify this.
  • nb 1 is unosurced.
