I am a big sci-fi fan and I enjoy even the most ridiculous, campy sci-fi movie. That said, I am quite certain the 8.8 rating this movie enjoys right now, is from paid voters. There is no way this can rate higher than Blade Runner (8.2), 2001 (8.3), Alien (8.5) or even Contact (7.4).

Between the jarring jumps in the story and waste of footage, this movie struggled to hold my attention. Why did Cooper bring down a drone? What use are a drone's parts? If drone parts are so valuable, why not encourage kids to become engineers instead of farmers? Scenes like these generate more questions than answers. Why even grow corn when it is far easier and energy-efficient to grow algae in laboratories? What's more, it is easier to prevent diseases like blight in a lab. It's not like they are growing gourmet foods anyway.

If a super advanced human/alien intelligence is helping the dust bowl humans, why place a wormhole near Jupiter? Why not near say Mars or the Moon? The movie never explains why the earth is so screwed that they could not go underground or underwater. Acid rain, Lava monsters? Heck, why not colonize Mars FFS? Why go to another Galaxy? I could go on and on about inconsistencies, plot holes and brain-dead storytelling but I think you get the drift.
