Although Neil Degrasse Tyson spoke highly of the science, and Adam Savage thought the robots were really cool, Interstellar is a less than stellar movie.
It was largely predictable, and I never really worried about the characters. The ending (once you watch it) seems convenient and kind of flat. Apparently the original ending made more sense:

Good: Spaceships and satellites seemed as fragile as I imagine they truly are. Robot AI was cool. Matt Damon!
The
Bad: Matthew McConaughey seemed more mumbly than usual.
The
Ugly: I cared more about TARS (the robot) than the characters
