Because if you went fast in real life you could hurt yourself.
The movie Gravity is pretty good for showing how fast someone should probably move.
Remember if you are outside the shit untethered you would really really really want to make sure you could grab a hold of the next thing.
Going fast you might just bounce off something.
Inside you don't want to collide with another person or whatever.

Guys no -- they are chilling inside of the spaceship. "Hey Mike, catch this wrench you need for whatever thing you are tightening". Guys throws in slow motion other guy reaches and grabs in slow motion.
Is it just for dramatic cinematography?

Imagine hurtling a wrench at normal throwing speed in 0G and then think about how dumb it would be to actually do in a spaceship
They throw it slow because regardless of speed. It's going to make it to its target.
Sure. There are slow motion practical effects that help with dramatic cinematography but I mean...
Here watch this spacewalk there are very practical reasons why they don't move very fast. #1 being safety.

Yes, its to indicate theres a difference in the usual environment.
Its just a thing, like turning a steering wheel when in a car driving straight.
