Fantastic film.
Arrival is one of the best movies I have ever watched,. It's thought provoking, gripping and had my attention throughout. It's rare that I would watch a film over again but Arrival is worthy of a second third or fourth viewing. The actors are superb and believable, the plot is excellent. This movie is top of my favourites list.

Hard pressed to keep my eyes open.
I must admit that it was because of the reviews i read that encouraged me to buy this dvd. It had a good storyline which is as far as I would go to say about this film. There is not a lot of action in this film and I struggled to stay awake, In all honesty I have to say that I found the film quite boring.

Believable and intelligent..
But enough about me... Seriously though, I saw this at the cinema and loved it so much I bought the DVD to share with others. The extra information on the processes to make the film were interesting too.

Outstanding film that makes you think.
Superb film about aliens, communication and language with the stunning Amy Adams that makes you critically think. The line about the Sanskrit word for '......' has the internet linguists arguing back and forth. What more do you want? I've watched it countless times already. Highly recommended.
