A high brow movie that doesn't bore

Rating: 9/10 (28 May 2019)

I came in the theater expecting a film full of alien film cliches (aggressive aliens, stupid humans, plot holes the size of Texas). I was pleasantly surprised to find a thoughtful, intelligent film that seemed to try to avoid the cliches.
The plot was somewhat difficult to follow, but the writers left enough bread crumbs to follow. If they'd left any more bread crumbs, the film would have lost some of its mystique. I watched it again a few days later, and still found sub plots. I really hope they make more of these.
