I hope it goes tits up right quick.

I can count the times I went to the cinema in the last 10 years on 1 hand. Only "Interstellar" was worth the big screen.

I don't know why people dislike that movie. It rocked my socks

It had dumb scientists, a weird love conquers all theme, a bathetic climax that was also on the wrong side of believable and an extremely tacked on epilogue.

Wouldn't say that I hated it, but it was pretty flawed for what it was. magnificent black hole cgi notwithstanding.

It's cheap space Sci-Fi for casual viewers.

I am positive that usual Sci-Fi fans didn't like it that much.

the ending was stupid, quantum library bullshit was lame af.

Complete waste of time, which fits with the theme of the movie.

I think I would have liked it better if they had cut another 60-80 minutes from it.

It was so ungodly long

Who hates Interstellar? Inception I believe, but I don’t think I’ve ever met someone who hated Interstellar. Not that they can’t exist, due to my experience or anything.

I absolutely hated it, all the worse for doing all my favorite genre's trappings so well only to tie it all with a magic bow of stupid.

I hated Inception (and Dark Knight) so much that I can now hate every new Nolan movie without having to watch them. Bliss!
