I'd consider Interstellar a not-so-good movie, and crap by Nolan''s standards, beats me why it's considered one of the best movies ever. TDKR is not bad, it's as great as Batman Begins. But it's just good enough to me to pass for not bad, mostly the acid trip ending ruined it.
Interstellar? The Dark Knight Rises?

Untrue, but Tarantino & Nolan did bad movies too, so why leave out Spielberg?
