    It happens occasionally where a film will be so completely unlike anything you’ve ever seen before. For myself, I can think of three. The first is Christopher Nolan’s Interstellar. Regardless of what others have to say about the story being too complicated or hard to understand, I went into the theatre without any prior expectations or requirements that the film needed to meet.

    Alright, I'm done crying. Time to write the review, goddamnit.

    Okay, Saving Private Ryan is the greatest war movie ever made. It's violent and shocking, cold and unfriendly, but it's human. It's one of those movies, like Schindler's List, that's just so powerfully human. This movie will make you cry. It will make you see war through the eyes of those who fought it. Misguided, confused, as these poor soldiers struggled with their own morality and tried to achieve a common goal. This movie has everything, a great score, great acting, great cinematography, great everything. I love this movie.

    Oh boy.

    Alien invasion movies are, without a doubt, a dime a dozen these days. It has, without a doubt, become an increasingly cliched subject matter. Arrival is different. Arrival takes everything you think you know about an alien invasion movie and throws it out the window and gives you something infinitely better. I promise this movie will not let you down. It's excellent.
