The Verdict

The docking scene — Cooper matching the spin of the damaged station, Hans Zimmer's organ building past the point of endurance, TARS counting down percentages — is Nolan engineering a set piece where the spectacle and the emotion are the same thing. You're not watching Cooper dock. You're watching a man refuse to let his daughter grow up without a father, expressed as orbital mechanics. The Social Network has Eisenberg's devastating final scene, refreshing the friend request, but Fincher's devastation is quiet where Nolan's is overwhelming. At 61 to 39, overwhelming wins. The organ buries the keyboard.
