No Time for Caution... or Docking Scene. Hans Zimmer got a rare Academy Award nomination for this scene.

Alright. As we reach the 2 hour mark, it's obvious this movie should be over or at least reaching the end. To refresh your memory, Earth is dying. Michael sent Matt Damon and a few others to search for inhabitable planets. Matt Damon sends a message that he - No Time for Caution! - found such a planet. And so, Michael Caine sends Matthew McConaughey and Anne Hathaway to travel to that planet with a case full embryos. Think of the plot to Alien: Covenant! Well, turns out that Matt Damon was lying and just wanted to use the vessel to escape the planet. All this could have been done in 90 minutes. Shorten the exposition to 20 minutes instead of 40. Eliminate the water planet or at least make it part of a montage. Shorten those Adult Murphy scenes. They quicker they had gotten to Matt Damon the better. This is the meat of the story. It's where you learn that Matthew McConaughey's entire mission was a waste of time. He missed out life with his kids for a suicide mission. By the time this revelation is made you're almost 2 hours into the movie and the audience is restless. 90 minutes, Nolan. 90! Then use the next 30 or 40 minutes on Matt Damon shenanigans and bookshelf shenanigans. Bump

Nothing about this ending makes any sense. You couldn't even bullshit an explanation. That's how dumb it is.

On second thought, Doomsday , Interstellar is worse than Dunkirk. I forgot how overly long and stupid this movie is.

Old Murphy doesn't have a butt chin either. Nolan was scared to put butt chin in the casting call.

It's not finders keepers when you steal it from someone's hands.

Thank God for Zack Snyder. We don't have to sit through shitty fight scenes anymore.

It took 40 minutes to tell Bruce Wayne's origin. Today, it would take Nolan 400 minutes.

Pay phone? Newspaper clippings? Pen and paper? When was this movie made? 2005?

Bruce Wayne re-appears and Batman shows up soon after. Not a lot of bright people in Gotham.

Nolan's counter-argument for a cape. Take that, Brad Bird.

It took 20 minutes to tell Batman's origin. Today, it would take Nolan 2 years.

In movies, people never brush their teeth when they wake up.

People talk mad shit about Katie Holmes but she's better than Maggie Gylenhaal. Yeah... she might not be believable as an Assistant D.A. but she had better chemistry with Christian Bale.

This is the only Nolan Batman movie that feels like a Batman movie. Don't know why they abandoned the Narrows in the sequel.
