My comments: Now that's a MOVIE! Clever, believable science fiction where you slowly figure out what's going on, and the reality is much ... deeper ... than superficial. I'll be thinking about this one for a long while yet. It left me with a couple of small questions, that I'm sure I'm supposed to figure out on my own (sort of like the end of reading The Giver for the first time).
RT/ IMDb Summary: When mysterious spacecrafts touch down across the globe, an elite team - lead by expert linguist Louise Banks - is brought together to investigate. As mankind teeters on the verge of global war, Banks and the team race against time for answers - and to find them, she will take a chance that could threaten her life, and quite possibly humanity.
