I think Interstellar suffered from Christopher Nolan unintentionally mimicking Stanley Kubrick. That's the kind of movie that screams Kubrick. I almost wish he would've went in a completely different direction.
Plus, the movie suffers from too much going on conceptually.
The main problem with it was that it went from Kubrick to conventional pretty quickly. The last 1/4th was wrapped up wayyy too nicely- to the point of being sappy and uninspired. I didn't have a problem with the conceptual ambitions that dominated most of it. But it really cratered with the whole bookcase nonsense.
It's never good to go from Kubrick to Capra in one movie.

You nailed it
It went from 2001 to schlock almost instantly and right at the end

best way i've heard it summarized to date.
[SPOILERISH]
i mean i love it and it was lightyears ahead of what gets nominated a lot of times at award shows, but that last 15 minutes till the last 5 was just to much BS for me to handle in the scope of the awesomeness of the movie. the ending itself i liked. just not what got us from Cooper entering the black hole to waking up on the megaship.
i would still say it's the best film experience i've had in 5+ years and lands somewhere in the top 20-30 overall.

This. And I was really thrown back by the end, and find it to be a major fault of the film.

Yeah, just watched it last night and was really into the movie until the black hole bit. Movie could have been great if it had gone in another direction.
