    Huh it made total sense to me. It’s like love is an attracting force, a sort of fifth element if you will, that humans have some dim like nascent control over. That’s all I needed to buy it.

    But if you don’t buy that woo premise then it all falls apart. I can see how it’s a sort of rug pull given the science babble earlier in the movie.

    Obviously your opinion is correct for you. I thought it was perfect for the themes on display the rest of the movie. It’s absolutely on the softer lofi end of sci-fi, which is not everyone’s cup of tea.

      Reading what I wrote, I guess it sounds a bit condescending. No intent to insult here, sorry if I was too harsh.

      Of course I can see the appeal of the movie and I understand that of course people are free to like whatever they choose. Interstellar is still a bit special because it really has everything I usually like. I went in there with high hopes and was really happy with how much my desire to like that movie had no problems being fulfilled at all. Until that last hour. With bad movies, it’s just a bad movie for me, but this one felt like I got betrayed after having already decided to love it.

      But yeah, it’s just a movie and I shouldn’t be too invested. Great for you if you like it, I really wish I did, too.

        I’ve definitely experienced this with other movies, so I understand the disappointment.

        You’re good. I don’t think you came off as condescending. It’s clear you were having a rant. And if you can’t have a good rant on the internet where is there left!
