Good, but with clear flaws that almost make this movie unwatchable

Rating: 4/10 (23 February 2015)

Interstellar is a great concept for a movie. Exploring space is a wet dream, and it becomes especially dirty when your race is dying out at the same time, and you don't have enough resources to really be ethical about it. The premise, however, is... quite, how should I say this..? stupid. Somehow, everything that you can eat, except humans, is going extinct because of some super disease(?). They only have corn left.
Despite years of scientific advancements, humans have not figured out how to properly manipulate genes. Don't get me wrong, they keep doing it. It just doesn't seem to work as in real life. So the humans figure that they need a new planet. Here's where it gets really dumb. Okay, so you need a new planet? And are you sure this planet has food that you can digest? How likely is it that you're gonna find a planet that has food, that you can eat, and that can be found by one of 10 different shuttles shot off into different directions in space? Answer: Virtually IMPOSSIBLE.
Okay sure, let's say that they don't expect to find food, just a habitat that they can live in. Then what are they going to do with the super disease??? How is it not going to murderize all your corn when you bring it to this new planet? So right off the bat, this movie makes no sense. I was about to just walk out and bang my head against a wall for half an hour right before they got into space. Now this is where it starts to get good! They get to a pretty stupid planet, and then right after that there's a moment that simply gets 10/10 from me (I won't go into too much detail here). This is of course ruined by the fact that a couple of minutes later they have an argument. Anne Hathaway wants to go to the planet with the best properties, Matthew McConaughey wants to go the planet with the worst properties. Why? Well, because the guy who went there and recorded the data was the mission leader. So they do what Matthew McConaughey thinks because, hey why not. Of course this all ends in disaster and they blow up their main ship, the black guy dies, and then Anne Hathaway is sent to the planet with the best properties, which of course is habitable, and Matthew McConaughey has the acid trip of his life. Then some stuff happens and it's over.
This movie is a roller-coaster. It goes from being the dumbest movie I've ever seen to being one of the best movies I've ever seen multiple times during its screen time. When McConaughey was tripping balls in space, I just felt like they should've given me a heads up to bring a bong to the theater. I have very mixed feelings about this one. It's an extremely flawed masterpiece. So flawed that it doesn't resemble a masterpiece at all.
