Breathtaking

Rating: 10/10 (26 February 2017)

The measure of a good movie, as far as I'm concerned, is when the movie stays with you for a while, coming back in fragments, flashes, reminding you of its excellence by touching that special neuron in your brain. This is Arrival, a sci-fi movie only in appearance, but much, much more than that, that left me breathless, and it's still touching that neuron, and it still produces the flashes of its grandeur, days after I saw it....
Just a quick note, rather important: if you're a fan of Batman vs Superman, don't watch this movie. If you're not into meaningless movies, and like to think, you cannot afford to miss Arrival.
