Critical Acclaim
A soulful, poetic sci-fi masterpiece about the triumph of empathy over fear.
Amy Adams gives a deeply moving, beautifully calibrated performance at the heart of this enigma.
Rich, mesmerizing and intellectually challenging, Arrival reboots sci-fi on a grand scale.
Fan Reviews
Absolute nonsense of a movie. It has no point no proper ending. You get either some flashbacks or future insights, unclear to be honest, mixed with present stuff happening on the screen.
Definitely my flavor of sci-fi. Grounded in both fascinating concept and rich emotion. Grief and inspiration packaged together beautifully.
Arrival presents a powerful and genuinely original premise: language as a force capable of reshaping human cognition and even the experience of time itself.
