Interstellar was weird. It came from the I loving Love Science crowd but felt somehow like a superstitious, religious movie about a caring divine entity making everything right in the end.

The father had two children as I remember, one son who was independent from his dad and realistic about the disaster around them and tried to forge some kind of life in those conditions, and one girl who was just a dreamer, dedicated to and idealizing her father and following in his footsteps and the movie predictably vindicated the daughter while condemning the choices of the son.

Then the black hole turned out to contain some kind of magical box that will save mankind and prevents us from having to live with our choices, as though they tried to make a bizarro version of Hellraiser. I prefer it when black holes in movies are represented as disturbing and uncaringly evil like space itself, like in Event Horizon.
