Purely Joyful Movie!

I think this is a new genre that they're all sort of working their way through it and haven't got all the kinks worked out yet but it's a genre that works for me.

The plot isn't so bad, but the pace of storytelling is too slow which makes people bored. Certain moments are so obvious and unnecessary for the main plot. I would've fast-forwarded those moments if it was an online streaming. The ending looks like implying a sequel, not sure if this movie will get one

Worth seeing just to witness how winsome it is.

This movie is a masterpiece.
Everything about it is really good: the way it is written, directed, the soundtrack, cinematography, just perfect!It reminds me the Wittgenstein statement about the limits of our knowledge being equal to the limits of our language. As the main character acquires a new language, she is now able to see the world in a whole new perspective.It also passes a great message: that is, even though we know we are mortal, life is worth living.I really love this movie, really inspiring to me.
Worth more than a single watch

I had low expectations for this movie, you've seen one alien movie you've seen em' all right? Nope. I was pleasantly surprised by Arrival, who renewed my faith in the industry. Finally, a creative, new premise! Arrival is a beautiful story les by Amy Adams who's performance was one of the better ones I've seen as of late. Her chemistry with Jeremy Renner feels very natural and genuine, and Forest Whitaker is always good. This movie will have you on the edge of your seat, turninging in circles, and weeping all at the same time. 8/10

Still it is unbelievable how this movie has so high rate. So blunt, so hollow... everything is familiar so achingly familiar . I guess only teenagers rated this movie

When it comes to the likes of big-budget SyFy films such as 2016's "Arrival" - IMO - Hollywood definitely needs to make 2 separate versions of the same story. They really do.First there'll be this PG-13 version here. It'll be the one for all of the naive, undemanding, little kiddies out there who have no real expectations about what's what. Yeah. This'll be the version that's guaranteed to keep the tiny tykes quiet and relatively satisfied for a couple of hours.And, then there'll be the adult version of "Arrival" for us grown-ups. And it'll be the one that really gets the viewer thinking about the potential reality of an honest-to-goodness, real-life alien visitation where the story doesn't have one saying "WTF!!??" about every 5 minutes like this version did.'Cause - Believe me - When it comes to being a "thinking" adult - I, pretty much, sum up this version of "Arrival" as being the biggest, the loudest, and, yes, the stinkiest of SyFy farts ever, from this past decade.I ain't kidding.I mean - This one's aliens looked so idiotic that they were downright laughable to me.... So - Like - When is Hollywood gonna give me a break from all of this PG-13 nonsense? Eh? When?
