I'll throw in my lot with the Martian. Yeah, it had it's flaws, in that in trying to depict a very tough situation involving the world, people agreeing together to do "what's right", and a man being stranded on Mars, it still just somehow meant to feel all a bit too convenient and predictable. Like when you know something's going to go wrong, and yet right itself. Not that bad though that it still managed to maintain enough suspense and curiosity that I feel it's the best of the three.
Gravity was pretty good but just felt like a story I feel I've heard a few times by young science fiction writers (spinning in space with little hope of survival or returning to civilization, human sacrifice, etc). Since I was a kid, I feel like I've read this story in at least a dozen or so iterations, ranging from totally amateurish writing to full-fledged sci-fi novella. Sandra pulled of a convincing enough act considering it's probably entirely green screen, and there were some nice shots in it as well.
Interstellar I enjoyed the least. It just seemed like it tripped all over itself. Why the hell would humanity need saving if we had the resources to send people planet hopping in different galaxies anyway. And why emotional, resource hungry, fragile humans? But whatever. It tries to tie in reality and science where it suits itself as well. Gravitational pulls, wormholes etc. But then blackholes are in the equation and why is there still light, why aren't people being stretched into spaghetti when entering one. By that point I was just like ok now it's just a fantasy thing where anything goes and I lost interest in what it was trying to say, and it might as well have been Back to the Future(Past).
