All space scenes are fantastic, in particular the docking scene.

It gets more "meh" whenever the plot thickens.

No matter how inhospitable Earth become, migrating the species to another fucking galaxy is clearly bound to be order of magnitude more complicated than making whatever necessary adaptations on Earth. "Oh no there are sandstorms let's go to another planet instead"

There must be second-order effects of mastering gravity that makes all existing assumptions shaky. You can't just throw it in there like that.

My man understanding what in the hell is happening in this black hole and the rules of the games in 5 minutes straight, like he trained for black hole diving all his life. All the plot resolving in those 5 minutes and we being the spectators of this non-sense just expected to admit it.

Did he just flip a screen to reveal a mini whiteboard on which he diagrams how he's gonna parallel park to a back hole?

Christopher Nolan tries to package decades of science-fiction themes into a single movie. The lossy compression is quite noticeable.
