    I would watch a movie of Amy Adams sleeping for two hours. She's amazing.

    Saw this movie with my 23 yr son.We both thought it sucked. Waste of time and money. No explanation for many things that happened. One second they are working on deciphering language, the next they are having full conversations. If you are looking for an action-packed typical sci-fi movie, stay away from this one.

    The sound was not perfect so missed out one dialogue frequently. Interesting concept re time travelers from the future although how do they (and we) know they are from the future if their language is nonlineal?

    I liked it. Sort of. Used a few neurons in my gulliver to maybe figure it out. Maybe not.

    An incredibly emotional sci-fi film about the need for empathy, collectivism and communication in modern society. Incidentally, it is also the best movie about death and grief since Darren Aronofsky's The Fountain.

    Worst movie I have ever seen, boring and really about nothing. Waste of money.

    OK, well, I liked it. I actually stayed awake for the whole film, which is rare these days. Different approach to alien invasion films. Instead of the military and firing power - linguistics, communication, memory and goodness are used to reveal the story. Having taken a Linguistics course in University, I was fascinated by this aspect of the film. If you're in the mood for Independence Day 3 you will be disappointed. It's a thinking persons film. There are also a few political references in the film that I found funny. Amy Adams does a great job. I read a review recently that she sucked. The person who wrote it was probably expecting ID3. Over and out of the theatre!

    The movie goes in a circle: or anyplace on that circle like the alien's circular script. Confusing, plays with your concept of time and credibility. Need to see it several times or to read the detailed plot. My wife fell asleep, I stayed awake throughout, or did I?
