Here is what I hated about the story:
1) His goal the entire movie is to make it back to Earth to see his children, but primarily his daughter because he left on bad terms. When he finally reunites with his daughter at the end, he shares a wonderful but brief moment with her. Then she says something like, "A parent shouldn't watch their child die. My family is here with me. I'm in peace. Go find Brand. She needs you."
And without so much as shedding a tear, Matthew leaves her to go find Brand.
I find that completely incomprehensible. If I was Matthew and I actually made it back to civilization in time to reunite with my daughter, I would stay by her side until she died.
There's no way I'm going to leave her again.

Hypothetically, you haven't been part of your 130 year old daughter's life for the last 120 years. What makes you think you are all-so-important to her that she wants you there instead of her kids and grandkids etc. We have no idea how much time elapses in that room by the way.
It would be downright selfish of MM to soak up the last of her time after deciding to abandon her in the first place, no matter how altruistic the intentions.

Well, that was their closure. He didn't need to stay there and watch her die. He sacrificed the relationship with his daughter to save mankind, and she forgave him for it. That's really all that needed to be said, and Cooper sitting on his arse for the rest of his life does nothing for him. He'd rather continue being a pioneer and find Brand. All they needed was closure, and staying by her death bed would make him loom with regret despite making the right decision.
