    I first saw it in a completely empty theater as a teen. The visuals are obviously amazing, and I really liked the story, until the last bit - back then I was annoyed that they suddenly jumped from scientific accuracy towards feelings and emotions.

    It took me a long time to properly understand the metaphor and message, but now I love it all the more!

      That stupid love shit they shoehorned in was sickening. But, Hollywood must always sit in every chair at the table. I’m sure that was the suits insistence and not the writers.

        That pulled me out of the movie like a black hole. I loved the visuals, the music and everything. The fact that the guy sat alone in a spaceship for years really messed with me. Then there was the love dimension stuff and i was just like: alright, do i have dishes to wash or something?

          What do you mean with “love dimension”? Are you talking about the inside of the black hole? That was explained with the future humans constructing a space that Cooper could understand, navigate, and use to transmit the data necessary for human survival to his daughter. Love is what made his daughter believe in him and attempt to decode the message, but the space itself had nothing to do with love.
