Wanted to like it...

*Sigh*
Here we go, about to give a 9+ rated movie my opinion.
First off, I'd like to mention that I like Nolan. Memento and The Prestige are really great movies, entertaining and mysterious. Lately however, I did not enjoy Inception and the last Batman movie (You don't build up Bane like that and just brush him aside in the last 20 minutes, that is just bull!). And to an extent, I did enjoy parts of this movie. The idea of humanity being doomed is interesting, the fact that Nolan hired scientists (Physicists) to provide with data to create a seemingly realistic wormhole and other visually amazing stuff, the turn of Matt Damons character and the overall dark tone throughout the movie. But I mean, come on. There is so much you could remove and still get the message across.
The ending, first of all. Why not, in true Nolan fashion, end it when Matthew McConaughey is done changing the past causing the exact same outcome, yet changing the future. Cut to overwhelming light, annnnnnnnnd credits, implying that the world would carry on. As well as the beginning could be cut down, and a whole part in the middle while exploring the other planets. I just think it was way to long, and some parts was just too wacky. Which is most evident in the part with Matthew McConaughey that I tried to described. And also a huge problem I have, the music at some points. It's not good, or needed in every scene. Sometimes you can't hear what the characters are saying. Less is more.
But, yeah. I'm not qualified to talk about physics and it's just my opinion, but no I think this movie tries to change the formula of movies like Armageddon, by making it more complex and nonsensical to myself. Because, if the ending is just as sappy and coincidental as other movies regarding saving the world, why complicate things?
Oh well, nice visuals, cool parts and ideas. But, not my cup of tea.
