Hm...do I prefer the extra who keeps saying the pressure is about to blow in BB or the jerk extra in the ferry who wants to blow up all the prisoners 

 

Technically none of those are extras.

The third act ruins the movie tho

fuck you. this is a horrible opinion. go back to school

[Dementeleus]

The very end of INTERSTELLAR is quite nice. The preceding -- 30 min? 45 min? -- might be Nolan's worst stuff ever, though.

Nothing like spreading Tele's love, optimism, sunshine, and unicorns on the board to other posters:)...

I have no desire to play semantics WCE. While I realize you're right, I'm not gonna just lie down to your superior Hollywood-inside authority just because

But we're talking the sixth dimension here, not the fifth.

Basically when Matt Damon comes out of the tinfoil.

You're just cranky cause your boy Hardy wasn't in it.

bad bad bad bad bad bad bad bad. no. go. somewhere else

[WrathOfHan]

There are two parts to Interstellar: pre-Matt Damon and post-Matt Damon. The former? Some of the best work Nolan has crafted. The latter? Awful. Just awful.

[CoolioD1]

Character motivations make no sense

The bookshelf shit is very convoluted 

It makes the film's pacing come to a screeching halt

Fine.

 

Is Gravity a sci-fi movie?

Dunno if it's worth going on a rant about it years after the fact, but the tl;dr version is dubious plotting, lots of contrivance, and some very weird/lame/awkward character beats.

So...

 

Matt Damon appears about 95 minutes into the movie. There's still another 70 minutes.

 

The docking and Gargantua scene is rather marvelous stuff as well. It's definitely uneven but...parsing it down like that is wrong.

For me it's still somewhat okay after that. It's the whole tesseract stuff I finally go, f*ck this.
