Completely ignored tidal gravity

Rating: 7/10 (14 May 2015)

I have always liked science fiction movies, and this one is pretty good. Nice acting, as would be expected from accomplished actors like Matthew McConaughey, Anne Hathaway, Jessica Chastain, John Lithgow, and many others. Great visuals, great score, and a partially good use of the science involved, especially general relativity. We can pass on the wormhole, a totally theoretical gravitational phenomenon. But they completely ignored tidal gravity, meaning in an intensely strong gravitational field, such as near a black hole's event horizon, or crossing it, the force is so strong that it will pull the nearer side of an object much more than the far side, thus tearing it apart down to the atomic level well before reaching the event horizon. I'm sure that this was glossed over because it would be fatal to the plot. But it is still a pretty good movie.
