Arrival Review

Posted on December 25, 2016 by Stupidity Hole

What was great about Arrival: No bad guy. It’s about communication. A lot of beautiful shots. The aliens are fairly ambiguous. The score is not telling you how to feel. There’s a good sense of progress toward achieving the goal … Continue reading →
