Just Villeneuve sort of movie. Slow burning movie. After his success with Sicario the director is back with sci-fi theme, but not like other sci-fi film he is bring other color to the genre. The genre usually filled with war or explosion or maybe thrill like in the Alien but this movie more about the drama, the story about the connection between human and the other species. The story can be little bit confusing for someone, with a lot flashing pictures like a flashback or metaphor scene but what really happened is it has a straight time line. Villeneuve again came with great cinematography, full landscape of the alien ship with mountain background or a view when the team aboard the ship for the first time is really enjoyable moment to our eyes and for our ears, they got many good scoring at the perfect place that will bring more deep to the scene. Amy Adams give a great acting for her lead role in the movie, it is her one (wo)man show. She will get award nomination for this role I believe. On the other hand, the supporting actor like Renner or Whitaker didn't had a chance to show their quality due their lack of screen time. This movie will not satisfied all the audience, I hear some of them even sleep in theater, but for other some it will became a great experience and a pleasure journey to sci-fi genre. Recommended to watch it in cinema with a big screen and good sound, we can't waste such a quality that the filmmaker had done to make this great movie.
