When INTERSTELLAR was released there was a lot of talk in my city ( Bombay in India ) as to how it totally outclassed and eclipsed GRAVITY , because the setting of interstellar ( that of time travel to distant galaxies ) was so grand in comparison to Gravity . Gravity's setting was relatively modest , as it was not much beyond the reach of the earth and the earth was always in sight in the movie . Also the length of Gravity was only half the length of Interstellar . Interstellar had the name of Christopher Nolan on it .
But now that the dust has settled or rather the hype has gone down , I think it is time to reassess the Gravity versus Interstellar debate .
I now feel ( now that I am out of the effect of the hype created around Interstellar ) that both movies are equally good . The end of interstellar seems somehow contrived and a little ' too much ' at least to me . Gravity seems more believable and less of science fiction compared to Interstellar , whose science fiction seems too way out of reach to me at least . This not to bring down Interstellar in any way , but I would like Gravity to get equal respect too .
