This film is not bad by any means,it's just that when a film is compared to 2001:a space odyssey,you have very high expectations.And I was disappointed.I wouldn't want to give away too much from the plot line,but I will say that Nolan somehow feels a compulsion not to kill the protagonist and that just didn't seem right.The visuals and cinematography are beyond brilliant,just as you would expect from a Nolan film.So far as the story goes,anything that deals with space-time and gravity,must be a mess and this is no exception.If you can look beyond the glaring plot holes,you get a wonderful heartwarming film.The background music is fantastic,it just makes you want to listen to it instead of watching the film. So all in all this is not a film to be missed,but I wouldn't call it a masterpiece.So 7 out of 10 from me.
