For SiFi Fans I guess

Rating: 2/10 (13 November 2014)

The theater sound was somehow screwed up for this movie. The dialog was very difficult to hear and the "background" music was way too loud. In spite of that just enough dialog got through to follow the story, but the sound problems weren't the real problem.
I guess if you're a serious SiFi fan you might like this movie. I am not a big SiFi fan (other than the plausible Star Trek sort). I didn't enjoy this movie.
There was no real foundation for why the earth was failing; you're supposed to guess. There was no background to suggest power sources for space vehicles that would last so long. There was no explanation for how the sleep modules worked. In fact there was no foundation or explanation for pretty much anything in the movie. You were just supposed to believe.
There is no preparation for the flight. Cooper is an experienced pilot but the crew doesn't seem to know each other so they spent no time together before the multi-year flight. You're just supposed to accept all of that and look past it.
Near the end Cooper ejects himself from his space craft out into space in his space suit. He's in a distant galaxy accessible through a worm hole but the last we knew he seems to have gotten trapped in a black hole. There is nothing but hocus pocus that has him land in a hospital on a space station at the end of the movie; no rescue attempt, nothing. You're just supposed to believe.
I don't mind wild scenarios but they have to be plausible at least. Maybe even 50% plausible?
I truly had a difficult time sitting through the movie and was glad when it was over. I wish I had stayed home and watched reruns of The Big Bang Theory. The movie was a waste of time and money.
