Cerebral, Sentimental

Rating: 8/10 (25 March 2017)

This movie was difficult to rate.
It is sentimental and cathartic. My guess is that the stereotypical man will view it as a chick flick. It's more about a woman's love for her daughter than it is about the aliens.
Cerebral, slow-paced and lacking in thrills, explosions, and chase scenes, it's target audience is adults (women?). Your stereotypical tween and teen males will find it boring.
Some aspects of it were cringe worthy, other aspects were enjoyable, lovely and intelligent. The sci-fi aspect goes beyond aliens and into the realm of, if I'm not mistaken, the fabric of space and time.
Overall I liked it and will even praise the cringe worthy parts for a good effort.
