Stupid movie that plods along. Confused

Rating: 5/10 (6 December 2014)

I had huge expectations of this movie. But this movie wastes the audience's time. its frickin 3 hours long!!! It wastes too much screen time in getting to the point and focuses far too much time on the rural life of Cooper (McConaughey's character) and his relationship with his two children. Furthermore this movie makes illogical leaps that don't make any sense and are frankly annoying.
Here's one: Food crisis on earth. So, instead of figuring out ways to grow weather resistant crops or hydroponics or anything like that - they make the leap of completely abandoning ship to the extent of finding another planet to live on!
The science is interesting - about traveling through a rift in space - time (worm hole) to travel to other galaxies to explore viable alternatives to planet earth. Going into a deep frozen sleep of sorts (similar to the original Alien) to preserve the body for the long interstellar travel.
The movie uses the idea of time travel in a way that the future and past co-exist together and impact each other - like - Murph's Morse code warnings that suggested Cooper shouldn't have embarked on the mission to begin with.
This movie is about coming full circle and realizing that you shouldn't have done anything at all. Yea.. i know. Not very inspiring.
The movie isn't very original either borrowing concepts from already released and icon scifi movie and television like Star Trek, Alien, Carl Sagan's Cosmos, Back to the Future, etc. to name a few.
