One of the big disappointments this year.

Rating: 4/10 (24 January 2017)

Straight to the point, its boring as Shiite, i swear more than half of the people left the theater 30 minutes before it ends and i was just sitting there waiting for that amazing moment that will justify the ticket price but no it did not come.
With all these positive reviews, i was expecting a masterpiece similar to maybe Space Odyssey, Alien or at least to be as good as cloverfield lane but Jesus in my opinion that movie was really really awful.
The whole story revolve around the arrival of Aliens to planet earth, and how humanity will be going to react against what it might seems a threat, a good idea for a movie sure, but executed in the most irritated way possible.
You think that maybe the movie will talk about interesting stuff such as u know , the advanced technology part, from where they came, how do they live, how do they breed or at least their intentions but no,the whole two hours were about establishing a communication method between humans and the Aliens and that's it. On top of that, by the end ,the whole plot wont make any sense, its very much like trying to communicate physics with a Chinese person that he knows only Chinese and u know only English with no possible way to use signals or anything and somehow make it work.
The casting was average at best, except for Amy Adams where she managed to stand out among the average lot.
The special effects were good at some parts, there were few clever camera angles but nothing really that can be labeled "impressive".
Nothing memorable in the sound department, many other movies even video games had a better scores and sound effects.
In short,do yourself a favor and don't waste your money, its not about the movie being slow paced or having no explosions or any clichés like that no, its just does not make any sense and boring to a painful level.
