Not perfect, but we need more films like this

Rating: 8/10 (21 March 2018)

I've seen very polarised opinions about this film, so I had to come and stand up for it. From the trailers, this film looked like trash - but it turned out to be so much more than I expected.
Like the recent film Arrival, this is a relatively slow-moving film, which avoids typical Hollywood cliches, and actually made me nervous and intrigued about what the characters were going to encounter. In its visual creativity, too, this film represents extraordinary things in arresting and interesting ways.
I will simply say that if you are intrigued by films which evoke a real sense of awe, wonder, fascination and dread, representing the unearthly in truly thoughtful and interesting ways, check this film out. It's not perfect, it's not as profound as some make out; but it's certainly not your average film.
