What's The Last Movie You’ve Seen?

Watched Interstellar. One of the worst movies I've seen in a while. Unless you're into sitting through 3 hours of fake-science, contrived and unconvincing character drama, a messy, unmemorable, and painfully boring plot, with a "all they needed is love after all" payoff.

But then again, lots of people loved it, so you probably should just ignore me.

Isn't fake-science another way of saying scifi? There is lots of scifi I like. However your review of the movie is what I expected it to be. Christoper Nolan is held in such high degree I don't get it.

I don't think "fake science" is the same as scifi. For example, Gravity is sci-fi, but it more or less scientifically sound. But I don't mind soft scifi, and that isn't my gripe with Interstellar. I like plenty of scifi that does not pay mind to scientific accuracy. What bothers me with Interstellar (one of a million things I hate about it) is that the movie takes its fake-science jargon so seriously. They deliver lines like "gravity can communicate across time and dimensions" as if they expect your mind to be blown by that gibberish.

"There are microorgamisms in your body that lets you consciously create force outside the your body" can be said about Star Wars. I still don't fully understand the difference. However I still get your point, a bunch of arbitrary scientific laws that are boring in itself and are also part of a boring plot.

There is nothing to get. I don't see where we disagree.

Sounds like a Christopher Nolan movie...Do the actors whisper through the whole thing?
 
Yeah I can't get into the mind **** stuff that might as well come from a stoned teenager
