I guess most people could have quibbles about the emotional elements and character motivations. I was mostly in awe of the filmmaking as a whole. The use of mostly practical, old school effects and the score (with the bombastic church organs) was just something like I haven't heard in years and fit perfectly with the visuals -- especially that crazy docking scene.
that's part of why i brought it up here. it was visually as stunning as fury road, but takes a different direction with the slow burn plot. interstellar is very much a 2001 a space oydessy style movie and takes quite a few cues from 2001 but puts a spin on them i was thinking last night. instead of the computer betraying man, it's man betraying man. i thought the TAR was also very much an ode to the monolith and the conclusion with coop going through the black hole was a different angle of bowman's travel through space at the conclusion of 2001. the sountrack style also was reminiscant.
