Product ReviewsArrival (DVD, 2016)

Sci-Fi that makes you think about perception and perspective.

do not go to this as sci-fi looking for a fast paced adventure.
This is not a shoot-em up adventure or a go boldly where no-one has gone before drama.

This does go where few have gone before, it looks at the subtle variations to perspective can change the whole narrative. It explores How we view our life story and our perspective on what goes on around us.
If you want to quietly think and ponder the bigger meanings of life and the universe, this might be for you.

If you need your story fed to you down a serial bus, this may lose you, but if your architecture is capable of handling parallel data transfer bus, then the nature of the non-linear composition may stimulate your nerve endings.

If you are after a suspension of reality with fast action.........go find something else to watch.Read full review...

Arrival movie I give 6 out of 10

The movie had interesting concepts, (spoiler alert= time is linear).
The movie is worth watching but on the slow side.
You do have to think carefully of whats going on or you may get confused.<br>Read full review...

Review

Overall a good movie, those who need action in their sci fi might find it tedious, those into meet and greet an alien 5 stars.

Unexpected

This was really great! The special effects were amazing! It wasn't what I expected, it's very different to any sci fi movie I've seen. I'm going to watch it again as I think I'll enjoy it the second time. Worth
watching.Read full review...
