It's a movie made for space nerds, and if you aren't a space nerd I can understand not enjoying it. Part of what made it so amazing is just the black hole simulation, no one had ever rendered one that accurately with such high fidelity.
I'm a huge space nerd. I did also appreciate the visuals and realistic portrayal of time dilation, and should have noted that (though it may have diluted my opinion a bit?). I just didn't like the actual movie itself.
Now that's an unpopular opinion. Respect.
Lmao, no it isn't. At best, it's made for people who are lightly into space/science and also lightly into cinema, so please don't trot out the "you need a high IQ to enjoy this movie" stuff. If it were made for space nerds, two scientists selected for deep space flight wouldn't need to stop and explain what E=MC² is to one another.
That's kind of always been Nolan's schtick, though, and I guess it's working out for him because he's got the a huge, quite passionate fan base. I'll never understand the hype and find his movies quite mid as cinema, but eh.
