Lets see, how do I do this again? … In Arrival, Amy Adams and Jeremy Renner are tasked with communicating with a visiting advanced race of extra terrestrial beings. The movie stays simple and on point, not tasking itself with any more than exploring this idea. Cuts of the main character’s daughter meeting animals and insects permeates the film, drawing to mind a reference I once heard made about how what we would call an alien abduction is similar to a fish getting caught and then thrown back, albeit from the fish’s perspective. The special effects are artsy; its not a big explosiony, blockbustery, dumb down the script for mass appeal, sci-fi movie. Theres a major M. Night Shamalamadingdong twist at the end thats pretty cool, and, not to brag or nothing but I figured it out way before the others I was watching with, ergo I smarter. I’d say its worth checking out.
