Arrival Review

Arrival is a remarkable sci-fi movie that takes an innovative and profound approach to the genre. The film is directed by Denis Villeneuve and stars Amy Adams as Louise Banks, a skilled linguist hired to establish communication with aliens that have landed on Earth. The visuals in the movie are striking and the cinematography is breathtaking, which is complemented by a hauntingly beautiful score that perfectly enhances the narrative. However, the film's primary focus on language and communication is what makes Arrival stand out. It delves deep into how language shapes our perception of the world and can be a hindrance to understanding others. Amy Adams delivers an exceptional performance as Banks, brilliantly portraying the character's intelligence, empathy, and emotional complexity. She is undoubtedly the soul of the movie, and her journey is both riveting and emotionally moving. Arrival is a film that commands your complete attention and rewards you with an outstanding experience. It leaves an indelible impact on your mind, challenging you to ponder over the power of language and the significance of communication in our world. With its brilliant storytelling, stunning visuals, and remarkable performances, Arrival is a must-watch for sci-fi enthusiasts and movie lovers alike.

TRIVIA AND POPULAR DIALOGUES

Trivia

Director Denis Villeneuve and screenwriter Eric Heisserer created a fully functioning, visual, alien language. Heisserer, Villeneuve and their teams managed to create a "logogram bible," which included over a hundred different completely operative logo-grams, seventy-one of which are actually featured in the movie.

The inky circular alien language was created by Montreal artist Martine Bertrand. It is also the artist's son who created Hannah's drawings.

While the shape of the ship was decided early on, Denis Villeneuve had great difficulty imagining an interior that would allow humans to easily navigate through such a steep and vertical design. The later decision to turn gravity sideways offered an obvious and convenient solution.

Ted Chiang, who wrote the story the film is based upon, approved the film, saying, "I think it's that rarest of the rare in that it's both a good movie and a good adaptation... And when you consider the track record of adaptations of written science fiction, that's almost literally a miracle."

The original name for the film was "Story of Your Life," the same as the source novella. Test audiences did not like that title, so it was changed to "Arrival."

Popular Dialogues

"Louise Banks: Despite knowing the journey... and where it leads... I embrace it... and I welcome every moment of it."

"Louise Banks: But now I'm not so sure I believe in beginnings and endings. There are days that define your story beyond your life. Like the day they arrived."
