The movie is better than gravity however visually the space scenes in gravity looked way better.

I disagree. "Gravity" only showed "Earth". How was the "Space" Scene's better? This film showed Mutiple Planets, Different solar systems, A wormhole and a Black Hole. This joint eclipse "Gravity" easily visually. It even showed the shuttle taking off, "Gravity" just started right at the space station. This film definitely was on another level than "Gravity" to me. I was more scared for Matthew's character than Sandra's.

I agree with you but I give Nolan a lot of credit for really bringing that Spielberian Energy. When JJ Abrams did it with "Super 8" he got closer than Nolan did but Nolan got close here. Spielberg is the King of Emotions. Nolan really did a fantastic Job with the Father/Daughter relationship.

That scene in the Hospital was Spielberg all day. Really emotional stuff. That's why I love this movie. Nolan has been way to COLD, I wanted him to open up as a storyteller. "Inception" he tired a little with Leo and his Kids relationship but even that film turned very Cold. "Interstellar" was very heart warming film so he finally accomplished that great emotion. But to your point, I wished Steven stayed on the project. This movie clearly was all him. I felt his energy watching it.

Im not even talking about that. Having read the script from 2008 I was really let down by the ending and some of the sequences. They just said fukk it at the ending....we dont even know what equation she solved and what its application for the world really was. We dont even know who the evolved humans were or they even came to be....we don't know shyt. I feel like they focused on that "human" element so much that they missed integral parts that made it a sci-fi story. In the script, because of relativity, Targus had been in the black hole for 300 years by the time Cooper made it there and it took him more than 100 years to process all the information in the bulk....robots had created a gravity machine because they were there for 4,000 years.....see shyt like that didnt resonate on the film.......


also on the ice planet...there was a whole eco system under th ice that resembled a jungle and there were liens there...Cooper actually takes a smple back to earth and it gets loose in the ecosystem and flourishes and there is some dialogue about the meaning of the worm holes tha plays into this....

I feel you but even Steven would of done it similar to Nolan. He wouldn't of over did it with the science stuff. The Father/Daughter relationship is what Drove Matthew's character. Like with Leo in "Inception" it was about his Kids but Nolan didn't knock it home with that film until the ending with the spinning top. But this time you felt Matthew's drive was about his family, that's what took him to the edge of the galaxy. What you just broke down is why I loved this movie. That ending was crazy deep and had a lot of layers. I mean we are talking multiple dimensions, Tons of Years and time travel. This movie spanned a lot of years cause of that Blackhole.

Just got back. I was blown away, but I can see why some might take issue at the ending. I personally thoroughly enjoyed it and glad Nolan took the route that he did.

The visuals were fukkin crazy. The suspense lasted damn near the whole 3 hours, thanks in large part, to Hans Zimmer's score, which I thought was great.

I dunno man. As you're watching the film, you kinda just feel like you're witnessing something monumental. It's hard to explain, but it's almost like the film has an aura due to Nolan's ambitious film making. Cinematography was so dope.

I can't remember the last time I had THAT kind of experience in a movie theater. The closest was Avatar, but this was even better than that.
I agree with all this.

Even when it does get messy as some reviews claim its a "beautiful mess"

I got the zimmer theme song as a bonus for copping my imax tickets and was bumping it last night :smugdraper:

Gravity had some of the best visuals I have ever seen in film.. and that's not a slight to Nolan or this movie cause they were good too.

But what layers?...if the evolved humans built the womholes to help humanity get off Earth then who helped them?

Thats a plot hole

Exactly. How could humans place the first wormhole if they were extinct. I cant ignore such a big plot hole in movie that tries to take itself so seriously.

It was a dope movie but the nolan dikkriding gotta stop. It wasn't that "deep" or hard to follow.

This hsould have been directed by Spielberg. Nolan is a good director but this territory is not for him....

Spielberg would of ended it on some BS contrivances. Like with AI and War of the Worlds.

At least this was based on actual scientific theory and presumptions.

I loved the movie. Saw it in IMAX with my girl and we both immensely enjoyed it.

There were definitely some holes in it, but I think I can sort of look past them because they advance the plot. Wasn't necessarily 100% in love with the ending, but overall the movie was great.

It's crazy how Nolan expects us to believe the future humans place the Tesseract there for Cooper, when in actuality there would be no Tesseract if not for Cooper relaying the message to his daughter.

The script did the same thing....How the hell was he able to convey complex mathematical theory using morse code with a analog watch????:scust:

That's not a plothole. It was an intentional time paradox. It presented the question of which came 1st; the chicken or the egg. It was meant to be ambiguous.

No it's not. He left that open for interpretation. "They" could of very well been a higher form of consciousness (Aliens/Extraterrestrials, God etc)
