Interstellar gets worse and worse with age too. I’m sure this is tired ground, but the movie is fucking awful.
It introduces some neat concepts that audiences have never been exposed to, which is why it was popular, but the plot itself was utter dogshit. Particularly when viewed from a scientific lens like Nolan seemed to want from the outset.
Bro, I get you watched Contact at an impressionable age and now every great scifi should have some mix of heady science and human emotional experience, but “the only thing that can escape time and space is the human heart”? REALLY? You have actual scientists and mission commanders and the like having serious discussions in space reciting hallmark greeting card lines to each other with a straight face? This is even before touching on the utter nonsense around the black-hole that couldn’t figure out it’s own size, boundaries and rules.
