I first saw it in a completely empty theater as a teen. The visuals are obviously amazing, and I really liked the story, until the last bit - back then I was annoyed that they suddenly jumped from scientific accuracy towards feelings and emotions.
It took me a long time to properly understand the metaphor and message, but now I love it all the more!
Nothing that happened in the movie could have been successful without love, it allowed humanity to do what shouldn’t have been possible.
To start off, I believe there was a very narrow path that led to humanities survival - kinda like that Doctor Strange scene in Infinity War. Had things happened differently (Cooper wasn’t the pilot, they didn’t go to the ice planet, Cooper didn’t sacrifice himself) humanity would have been doomed, and all those things happened due to love.
And only love is what allowed Cooper and his daughter to actually bridge time and space, because if she didn’t love him so much, she wouldn’t have attempted to decode the gravitational messages - she wouldn’t have believed this to be possible. But she did believe in him, and she did believe that he would still be out there and trying to save them.
None of the things they attempted would have worked without love, and none of them would have meant anything without love. In the end, the story is all about human connections driving us to attempt the impossible, and that’s a lot more powerful than some scientific MacGuffin could ever be.
That stupid love shit they shoehorned in was sickening. But, Hollywood must always sit in every chair at the table. I’m sure that was the suits insistence and not the writers.
That pulled me out of the movie like a black hole. I loved the visuals, the music and everything. The fact that the guy sat alone in a spaceship for years really messed with me. Then there was the love dimension stuff and i was just like: alright, do i have dishes to wash or something?

What is your interpretation of the second half?

I couldn’t disagree more!
