    ★★★

    Feels weird to even rate this as a film. But as someone who’s listened to this Daft Punk album a couple of times, and used to see the One More Time video on telly all the time as a kid, it was fairly fun to experience this. Should be done from artists more often. 

    Was a few times I zoned out but the story wasn’t too bad. The animation is super cool and it enriches the album significantly.

    Arrival is a film you will vividly remember whenever you go to rewatch. For my second viewing I initially thought I was going to like this less, but that ending still hits so powerfully. 

    The score that’s used in Shutter Island is used at the start and end here and without fail hits you in your bones. Amy Adams is great and Denis Villeneuve hits us with a reveal that feels so emotionally resonant. A great film about the essence of humanity and it’s also one of the best films made for language lovers. 

    Unique, powerful, emotional.
