Imagine someone watched Independence Day and thought, “What a complete sack of shite! I’m going to make something completely the opposite of that!” What you would probably get is Arrival.
It is absolutely not your typical alien action film. It focusses on how we would communicate with visiting aliens who experience everything in a completely different way to us. I can’t really say much more than that or it will ruin things for you.
I really enjoyed it. It’s well worth seeing in my opinion!

Felt the same.
Lost some of the content due to my hearing problems so have to wait for dvd to fully grok the story. Had the same problem with Interstellar.
But it’s so much more interesting and thought provoking than I-Day!
Agreed! 🙂
