The effects served the story, not the other way around, which already puts Interstellar light years beyond Gravity--no pun intended. The "coincidences" weren't really coincidences. When a future version of yourself has solved the issues of time/space travel and alternate dimensions, coincidences turn out to not be coincidences.
The enemy in the story is selfishness, as personified by Caine and Damon. The both turned out to be totally ego-driven and nearly destroyed humanity with their selfish decisions and deception.
The beginning and especially the last act of the film were totally riveting. Everyone in the theater who had been carrying on with little comments or whispers back and forth were totally silenced except for the occasional exlaclamatory reaction to the film's power. The second movement was quite boring but compared to 2001 it was the most exciting thing I've ever seen. Kubrick sucks. Overall, the film is less corny than anything done by Truffaut.
Damon was perfectly cast as a self-obsessed a-hole as in real life he is convinced he is saving the world.
