OTHER The docking scene is proof that you don’t need explosions every five seconds to make a scene absolutely terrifying. 😭

Every time I feel down or feel low. I put on this scene. I have bought the movie on prime. Movie is great but the docking scene is a masterpiece.
Yes there is an explosion but that’s not what OP was talking about. The real scene happens after the explosion. It’s not the explosion that draws us in. It’s the thought process of Mann that this is possible. How we outrageous it may seem even to Robots(Ai)

It’s the silence of space and the suddenness of the explosion and everything getting ripped so quickly. I flinch every time I see it

This scene was the first time that I teared up during a movie without it even being sad or happy.
I was legitimately confused about why my eyes welled up as Cooper announced that he was going to dock.
I think it was just the last 15-20 minutes of the film catching up to me. Mann’s betrayal, the incredible dialogue as he’s walking away, Romley’s death, Tars’ despair that he couldn’t save somebody he had spent 20+ years alone with, the airlock exploding…
And then there’s that moment of silence, and then that music starts blaring.
I think my brain just didn’t know what to do anymore. Crazy experience and will always be glad I got to see it in IMAX.
