Top Critics' Reviews
Fresh: By turns inviting and opaque, Ms. Adams turns softness and quiet into heroic qualities, keeping her voice low, modulated, and using stillness to draw you near.
Fresh: Amy Adams is a miracle worker-she makes us believe in this mesmerizing mindbender about alien communication, directed with searching mind and heart by Denis Villeneuve.
Fresh: Those expecting a whiz-bang film should be prepared for a more cerebral and emotional experience, admirable for its ambition and tone, if not wholly satisfying in its payoff.
Fresh: The revelation here is Villeneuve, who expands on the symphonic pacing showcased last year in the drug war drama Sicario. Even though the concept of Arrival is far-out fiction, Villeneuve treats it with no less detail or urgency.

ARRIVAL
Arrival deserves our attention for being one of the best-paced, expertly shot and awe-inspiring sic-fi dramas to arrive in theaters in quite some time!!
Worth Watching!
This is one of those movies that really does resonate in you and affects you. Very comparable to Interstellar but a little less science-y, this movie takes you on a fantastic emotional rollercoaster of excitement, sadness, surprise, and suspense, but never once boredom. I would highly recommend it for anyone who loves a movie that leaves you thinking and that takes a few twists and turns, or to anyone who just wants to watch a really good movie.
ARRIVAL
This film is a masterpiece!
