Amazing & Thoughtful Sci-Fi Adventure!

Rating: 9/10 (26 March 2018)

A very engaging plot/story... a 'Thinking Person' type of fiction/horror film.
And so very beautiful - visually. The effects, set designs, scenery, many colors, and especially the very dreamy quality of light throughout (good job, Cinematographer!) And congrats on some great work, Director!
A truly mind-blowing and very philosophical type of Science Fiction film - much like '2001' was in its heyday (now 50 short years ago). And the ending is extremely powerful and effective... All the cast are fantastic! My hats off to Ms. Portman, as she really pulled it off, the whole film through, of her character's past and present job/life experiences. This could be her very best work yet?!
This film is one that you should go in knowing as little as you can. I did, and it made the experience all the better, as we all can see a film 'for the first time'... just once. But you should see this in a movie theater, or at home with a good surround type speaker system... the sounds (and music) are so amazing!
Almost gave this film 10 stars... because I had dearly hoped for a much different ending (I have not read the book this is based on, but I plan to).
Lastly, I highly recommend, to anyone that hasn't, go watch the 1979 Russian science fiction film 'Stalker'. A film that Steven Spielberg is said to love. Cheers!
