A visually stunning and immersive sci-fi

Rating: 9/10 (13 March 2018)

Having seen Ex Machina and absolutely loving it of course I was very excited for his next film, Annihilation which is another breathtaking and mind bending sci-fi that will keep me thinking for weeks to come. Annihilation is a unique and refreshing take on the sci-fi genre and will keep you invested and wanting more with a great cast and visually captivating scenes that will draw you even more into this world.
The highlights of this film was Natalie's unforgetable performance and its haunting score and just how good this film looks. The story is interesting and that alone will keep you invested with sub plots that aren't wasted and extremely intense scenes and not to mention its well deserved twist towards the film's climax.
Although the beginning scenes are slow paced and it leaves you with no easy answers which may turn people away however its when you really delve into the world not long after the opening is when the mystery truly begins in this dark and fascinating world.
Annihilation is another future classic sci-fi phenomenom by Alex Garland and I would highly recommend it to anyone who enjoys sci-fi or an intriguing mystery with a complex narrative.
