I fell into my own trap with this one. I always say don´t led a trailer fool you, don´t build up expactations ´cause in the end you might be dissapointed. In a way that´s what happened with Interstellar. It was absolutely not what I thought it to be which in the end left me kind of confused and wondering what to make of it. I see a lot of resemblence to "2001" in the whole make up of the movie but like "2001" I´m not blown away. Interstellar is a good movie with a good and interesting storyline that has it´s flaws if you look at it from certain angles. That´s the movies, Personally, I think the end was to much Hollywood in it´s conclusion. I think Nolan once said he placed emotion above science for the end and that´s my biggest problem - the typical happy-end. It´s especially tragic since so much effort went into making this scientifically sound. Having Kip Thorne as a consultant is a big asset and it showed in the movie until that point. Than Hollywood won over Science. The movie could have been 20-30 min shorter which might have helped the pace. The visuals are really good, it all felt believable (that is beside the fact that the whole idea itself provides that you buy into it). It was not a complete bust or waste of time - but I don´t think this is a movie I will watch repeatedly.
