Interstellar is the most retarded movie ever made and only the worst of the midwits liked it. Kip Thorne should be embarrassed to have been a "scientific consultant" on it and written a book literally entitled "The Science of Interstellar." I would honestly cite Space Balls as having a more scientifically coherent plot.
Sure, but the movie's better as a morality play than as sci-fi. They're trying to express spiritual entanglement as physical entanglement, which is what makes it fallacious. Yes, Kip knows better, but his philosophy is that all blackhole news is good news.
I guess I am evaluating it from a scifi, and specifically as a "sci semi nonfi" (which is what it was shilled as) perspective. If you want to evaluate it from the perspective of morality or human society and being united or whatever then fine. Also, if you evaluate it from the usual "it's a movie it isn't supposed to be accurate" perspective, then yeah. Laser swords make no sense but Star Wars was wildly popular.
But as a movie specifically shilled as "this movie is based on on real science in consultation with real physicists" it is retarded. The entire plot makes no more sense than Star Wars, Star Trek, The Terminator, The Matrix, Time Cop, or any other movie.
I would believe that those visualization scenes were based on real simulations of the EFEs though, which I guess is kind of cool.
