Get your eyes in CONTACT with this movie...soon.

Rating: Null/10 (7 January 2002)

Superbly acted, with great production values and an intelligent story line. It's follows the life of an alien hunter, Ellie Arroway (Jodie foster) whose mission in life, that of finding her own identity run parallel with her passion for discovering alien life. Along the way she bumps into a religious writer, Palmer Joss (played by Matthew McConaughey, the only sore point in the movie...good looking as he is...this guy can't act), the government and another opportunist astronomer (played with great effectiveness by Tom Skerritt).
Watch this movie when you're alone or with people who don't talk during the movies. It's one of those atmosphere movies wherein you've got to be inside the movie to enjoy it the most.
