To be fair most good films are about characters, relationships and emotions. I think what made that moment so big was that they've been carefully crafting this interconnected world for the last decade and the Portals scene was the well-earned culmination of all that work.

It was well-done as well, you spent the whole film wondering when everyone would turn up but it was still hair-raising when they did. It would be so easy for that moment to be an anti-climax but they delivered on it perfectly.

For some reason, it always reminds me of the Apollo 13 moment when ground control finally hears the voices come through. You know it's coming but it still feels amazing when it does.
