Not your traditional sci-fi..but definitely worth your time (minor spoilers)

Rating: 10/10 (26 November 2016)

This is not your regular science fiction movie, that is for sure. aliens are coming in 12 locations, nations are scared, alarmed and eager to know the "purpose of these beings" while being highly skeptical of "destructive motives" which is more or less an instinctive reaction to something that we don't understand. And then, in a very smooth and unexpected transition, comes the notion of language, time, how they are related and how we interpret things and act based on our perceptions, motives, understanding etc..We are usually used to look at the "shape of things" or at "first layers" and this is exactly what the movie is telling us not to. Aliens, foreigners, "different beings" is only the first layer of a very complex and humane message (that I do not want to spoil for you). This is a movie for people who dig for layers, enjoy cult-like imagery, and do not mind thinking about the movie and its message long after the final credits. Highly recommended, great performance for Amy adamsvand another great success for the director of "Sicario".
