saw it in 3D for the 25th anniversary in february 2023. basic ass answer but my heart was beating so fast and i bawled my eyes out. never reacted to a movie so strongly before in my life.
Managed to see a screening of this masterpiece in 4k + surround sound, safe to say for my first watch it was biblical.
The entire cinema was sobbing at the messages from home scene
the movie is just so darn good let's admit it. I love that at any moment the whole thing could have been a disaster (pun intended?) but instead somebody made the right decision. at times the dialogue verges on unhinged, yet the actors somehow totally pull it off and I forgive it. the effects hold up and the ship looks amazing. the music is beautiful and exciting. the irish dancing scene when they spin each other around and it's all in POV camera angles should be so cheesy but it's PERFECT. the movie brings you up up up and down down down. an impeccable, precarious balance. masterful I must say. I love this movie.
To be fair, I’ve only seen it once, but I’m also a non-crier at movies and this one GOT ME!!!! It made me feel the most horrible, chilling sadness. I saw it by myself in the theater and sobbed in the bathroom after. Wowieeeeee
it was actually the first track from the album i ever listened to (it was playing on the radio). i got chills and immediately went to listen to the full album. an absolutely unbeatable closing track.
