8. The "Love Conquers All" Cop-Out - Interstellar

Box Office Gross: $621,800,000 Undoubtably, the most irksome thing about Christopher Nolan's latest flick, sci-fi epic Interstellar, stemmed from its inability to stick to what it was originally intended to be: a blockbuster movie set in space grounded in as much real "science" as possible. After all, Nolan - off his own back - took the time to hire physicist Kip Thorn, and spent the lead-up to the movie's release talking up the film's scientific accuracy. Watching the movie, then, it was weird to discover that Nolan didn't exactly carry through with his promise: though there was certainly heaps of science to savour, the writer/director also decided that Interstellar should feature a vague, out-of-place plot point that pretty much denotes that - brace yourself - "love" is the most dominant force in the universe. It's an admirable twist, but it feels wrong for Interstellar.
