Even in a space station compartment that exposed only at one relatively small, round spot.
All several thousand cubic feet of it.
INSTANTLY!
This film had a few other stretches of logic, but it was enjoyable for a single viewing. Unlike the first two Cloverfields, this one would not stand up to repeated viewings. I give it a 6/10.
QUESTION: who thought that Mundy's Arm was going to stop Jensen there near the end?
ANSWER: Me!
As for the freezing water, even the Red Dwarf arm was more believable than that.
Still, I had fun with the movie, it didn't take itself too seriously!
That does seem a bit odd. What do you think would actually happen?
π
It would cold-boil in zero pressure, until the escaping water vapor has removed enough thermal energy to cause the remaining water to solidify. Liquids do not like space.

Thanks, froggy.
π
This cold boiling also happens on the surface of the skin, eyes and etc, if someone is exposed to zero pressure. There isn't a lot of liquid right at the surface, so it doesn't take long for the surface to crystallize with ice.
The eyes are more troublesome. It's advised to keep your eyes squeezed shut if you're in space.
It's also advised to expel all the air out of your lungs, or else the pressure is likely to cause internal ruptures of the alveoli.
So if you're in space, just be careful! Don't step out the wrong door.
have you been in space to say that? No? Then shut the hell up, smartass
shareYou can create a vacuum without going into space. You didn't know that???
Here it is happening on Earth: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Ti9C_cLSR0A
That guy even explains exactly what I explained. Anyone who knows physics knows what happens to water in a vacuum.
I'd give it a 3/10 ... 6 is way overdoing it.
This was a total waste of time, with no redeeming value whatsoever.
To me a 1 is a movie so bad you stop watching it immediately, and
2 is a movie that you probably will not make to the end of a viewing.
Sad to say I watched this whole movie.
I think they should have held the arm up to his shoulder and it would
have popped together. Terrible movie!
I'm pretty sure the water would not have instantly frozen solid like that after being exposed to a vacuum. Instead, the zero atmosphere would have caused the water to immediately boil and turn into gas.
Another mistake sci-fi movies make is having people instantly freeze when exposed to outer space. There's no air in a vacuum and without air, body heat simply canβt be conducted away that quickly. In fact, it would take approx 8 to 12 hours to freeze solid. And in direct sunlight, you might not freeze at all - you might even heat up!
Not only that, being exposed to solar radiation would burn you before you would freeze in the shadows.
