Interstellar movie: competent science in sci-fi

"you can walk in to the theater knowing it will be both visually stunning and packed full of actual science."

That is completely different from the politically correct science rubbish in "Gravity"

"Evolution" cannot be actual science because no application of the scientific method has been able to reperform it.

It is comparable to saying my leg can turn into a tail. Just because I spend trillions of dollars advertising it and putting it into text books doesn't make it true, but perception is what matters right?

I really want to see this. Would it be ok for my 9-year old son?

      That didn't occur to me because when I saw it I didn't notice the time until it was over. Rare in movies these days. But I am a fan of sci-fi and also mature enough to understand it all.

It is playing at my local theater. I have tentative plans to watch this today.
