it just didn't seem like an act that deserved being played up since its an act that astronauts would be used to (McConaugheys character anyway since it's not his first rodeo) or the robots/computer systems iirc the first tense docking scene was handled by the marine robot
the only docking sequence that deserved all the drama was the last one (given the circumstances) but by that time i was already jaded and im like "here we go again" |
I think that perhaps you're being overly critical, because you weren't able to be "immersed" as myself and others who liked it were.
The repetition of the docking sequences were never "here we go again"...because I was "in" the movie, and it wasn't a repetition of the same event, but just the next event in a marvelous sequence of very interesting events.
Maybe not totally equivalent, but it's kind of like thinking to yourself "here we go again" as your wife starts screaming having her third child, because you've already witnessed it twice.
