2001 for idiots by an idiot

Rating: 2/10 (15 November 2014)

Honestly, I'm shocked. I had absolutely zero expectations for Interstellar, I wasn't super hyped for it like everybody else and I wasn't already hating on it before it came out like the Nolan haters. I'm shocked.
Nolan made a movie worse than The Dark Knight Rises.
The Dark Knight Rises was bad but it was also kinda enjoyable to watch in the theaters. It was a giant mess but it was not boring. Interstellar is boring. Oh and don't tell me "you just didn't get it!!", yes I did get it. I got it the first time they explained it. I got it and it was dumb. Interstellar is a very dumb movie that pretends to be smart.
Interstellar has some pretty shots here and there. Few pretty shots that bring nothing new to the table. Few little shots that show us things we've already seen executed better. The scenes in Earth with Jessica Chastain should have been cut, they added nothing but minutes to the movie. Seriously they served no purpose, the cutting back between Earth and space was useless.
The pacing is ridiculous, this didn't need to be 3 hours long. The movie has like 5 different endings and the final 30 minutes are like 15 different movie ideas crammed into very little time. I think at this point Nolan has gotten so big that there isn't anybody saying to him "You know, we should cut this part" or "this line of dialog doesn't work" or "Christopher, you can't shoot a movie with just a first draft of a script, you know that don't you?"
The writing is laughable. I actually laughed out loud when Nolan explained the already dumb story to me for the 5th time. The dialog is nothing but exposition and Michael Caine reciting poems.
Seriously I thought this was just plain bad. Pretty visuals don't make a good movie. Interstellar is big, loud and dumb. Is it this generations 2001? Maybe. Cause if it is, this generation is dumb.
Hint: Interstellar is not this generations 2001. That's Under the Skin
As I'm writing this it also sits #11 at the IMDb top 250. Yeah yeah IMDb is bullshit but really? What's wrong with you people?
