RE: Intestellar, not so stellar

I liked the science - it all makes sense with current views on black holes and time dilation - all good with me up to the last 15 min.
However, I still don't get it that on the water planet, which was so close to the black hole that hours passed in years on earth, the gravity effect of the black hole caused massive tsunamis but the observable gravity was not high and it did not seem to overly effect the movements of humans. Surely objects with mass on a planet so close to the gravity field of a black hole would be seriously effected depending on the clashing gravity fields and rotation of the black hole and the adjacent planet?

I really liked the robots. Nicely done.
Caine - meh - whatever, not so bad.
Damon - strange - maybe just not used to seeing him as a real arsehole.
Hathaway - Damn! But wasted in the spacesuit for almost the whole movie!

2001 is still the only realistic sci-fi space movie.
Gravity was good, but can't really be classed as sci-fi.
