    Still waiting for a quality Sci Fi movie a la Aliens. This isn't the one. Positive reviews drew me to it. But silly aliens (hands ?) and go no where plot left me empty. Like many sci fi attempts this one begins with promise but let's you down at the end. Pass on this one.

    Beautifully done, excellent plaot and great acting. I loved every minute of it. So realistic too and thus very believable. You never know what will happen next.

    I'm surprised by some of the comments. I actually don't love sci-fi and thought this was a great story with interesting twists at the right times.

    I love sci-fi, but this film was very disappointing, to me. Although I am a big fan of Amy Adams, and she was very good in this film, it was just not interesting to me and eventually pretentious and pointless. You could have driven a Mack truck through the plot holes in the script, but I will give the films "look" a shout out as being spare but effective. I just wish the "reveal" had been different and not so mundane. I thought the same thing of "Interstellar" and "Contact".
