Nolan can't direct a decent movie to save his life. He is officially the most overrated director on the planet.
The film was scientifically implausible to such an extent that I could not suspend disbelief and enjoy the film at face value. Pseudo- philosophical use of feelings with respect to the multi-dimensional time-space is simply ridiculous. The plot made no sense and never explained anything. I love how the protagonist is asked to pilot a spacecraft on a billion dollar intergalactic mission (during a time of world wide famine, no less) the very next day! Forget a physical or psychological or refreshing your memory, just show up tomorrow man!
I could go on but what's the point. Typical Hollywood tripe with cringe-worthy lines, like a top scientist saying "Love is the one thing that we?re capable of perceiving that transcends dimensions of time and space." Ugh.

For the most part, I tend to agree with you. I would have loved to see Coop go to the REAL Nasa in Florida, spend a year training while the story explains more about space travel and time dilation, etc. I would have loved the build up to the launch while more is revealed about the state of the planet and the shit it is turning into, etc. Sometimes things are best left to the imagination, but other times the details in extended stories really flesh things out for me.
This is why I'm really hoping for an extended directors cut. If they released a 4 hour version, I would definitely watch it.
The "Love" part of the movie is a bit of a stretch for me, but not that much.
