Interpretative is slightly more common than interpretive in 21st-century British publications. Everywhere else, including in the U.S., Canada, and Australia, the shorter form is preferred.
Some people consider interpretive etymologically incorrect because the Latin stem is interpretat-, not interpret-. Plus, there is plenty of precedent for using the longer form—for example, English speakers favor argumentative, exploitative, and authoritative over their shorter variants. But English is not always consistent in its word constructions, and these things are usually decided by popular usage rather than logic.
Examples
In British publications, we find about two instances of interpretative for every interpretive. These publications, for instance, favor the longer form:
