Annihilation is amazing!

Rating: 9/10 (7 March 2018)

My mind was blown after reading the book of which the movie is based, and this production has done an incredible job of what must have been a very difficult transition from imagination to the screen. I am very glad they made this!
It is one of those movies that so many will be "What?" because of the complex ideas presented, but regardless if you 'get it' or not, it will open your eyes to everything we take for granted as normal. Annihilation the movie did not perfectly match up with how I interpreted the book, but it respectfully adhered to the book and I realize how much I missed initially when reading. Usually one wants to watch the movie again after reading the book.
The visual effects are intense and fantastically done, the cinematography is outstanding and I was surprised how well the acting was, given the abstract concepts. Well done for the entire crew and cast!
