Arrival

Post by Dritz »

Has anyone watched it yet? I thought it was an incredible movie, especially since first contact movies / novels are a favorite of mine. I think the most interesting thing about the movie is that it's much more about humans than aliens.

I've not seen it, but I've heard good things about it. Will probably make an attempt to do so over the holidays.

I saw this a while ago and * loved it. Such a fresh perspective on a fairly worn out alien invasion genre.

Also,, I liked the emphasis on language and communication. I get geeky over this *.

I did end up seeing it at some point, and it was all right. I enjoyed the twist on the genre, but there were a lot of logicy things that didn't quite add up for me.
