Yea, the movie was full of plot holes in the first 5 minutes that didn't even make sense. You wake up the smartest few people on the ship and you come up with a solution. Dumb writing just says oh "we can't do anything"....OK...dumb movie. and there is no way you send people 120 years into space with not 1 human being watching a ship that big. There would either be a crew living out their lives to ensure things are watched, or more likely, the crew taking turns being asleep and awake so that your body does not degenerate as well and someone is actually watching the ship. Dumb premise and giant plot-holes made this movie pretty stupid.
You should meet Darwin and see what he thinks about that.
Well it depends what you like. I would say it is OK. I actually fell asleep and thought it was a bit boring in the middle and is over-rated. But I understand its artistic merit and some of the scenes are pretty good (esp the beginning.) La La Land and Manchester by the Sea were both way better in my opinion. (they actually had something called humor and were not super boring that made me fall asleep.)
Basically be prepared for a very....slow....film without much humor and some silly casting decisions and not fully believable writing and directing. Its worth seeing for Marshala Ali and the beginning...but after 30 or 45 minutes it just becomes terribly boring and contrived and is over-rated overall.
