Denis Villeneuve 'Arrival'

[Poetical Poltergeist]

Yeah that's pretty terrible. I stand corrected .

Can people here explain to me why this reminds them of Interstellar, two of my friends said the same thing but I just don't see it.

Tone and loud over dramatic score.

Didn't know the dude who did the cinematography for this film was a brother. he also did a most violent year i think and is doing the new han solo film. I really loved the cinematog in arrival.

 

[Sensitive Blake Griffin]

she wasn't terrible but in no way would I call her performance incredible. she was like a walking mannequin most of the movie.

What does that even mean? She wasn't emotionless at all in this movie, what the hell did you watch?

Both have 5th dimensional beings that uses time to save a species. And does it that creates a time paradox.

Amy Adams was fukking incredible. What's wrong with slow pacing? (and it wasn't THAT slow) The movie was captivating.

I think Jennifer Connelly couldve done the role more justice, even though she was already in a alien invasion flick. Brett was a horrible miscast. Seeing Hawkeye as a science nerd was unbelievable, and he couldn't pull it off. The pace slowed down in a few scenes (like the flashbacks, there were too many of them).

Spoiler

How the two leads came together at the end was icing on the cake for a cheap western hollywood/deux ex machina/feel-good flick.

Same thing I wondering about what u saw. she just seemed bored, even when tallking to the aliens. I ain't the only one in this thread that noticed. but it definitely wasn't incredible .

Renner was dull too.

she seemed bored? you didn't feel any of her excitement and anxiety? her hands shaking like a leaf before going up? you're acting like she showed no emotion which I just don't agree with.

Best part of the film was when they first entered the ship. I was glued. that same excitement didn't last tho.

I heard some people on podcasts complaining about the big Sci fi movies of the past few years all having to do with children (Gravity, Interstellar, this)

 

[FlyRy]

I really wanted to see

Spoiler

the aliens fukk some shyt up when the ufo's were turned sideways. I was really expecting something big.

Huge letdown.

Casuals :smugnolan:

 

[Mr210]

My girl and I are seeing this tomorrow after we go out for dinnee

Thematically it is pretty close to Interstellar what with love transcending time and more specifically messages being sent back through time with the help from interdimensional aliens.

I did a personality test last weekend and scored the same personality type as Nolan the gawd. No wonder his movies resonate with me so much :smugnolan:

You're both weak of mind so that definitely makes sense.
