A wonderful, moving, thoughtful piece of science fiction, marvellously handled and anchored with a strong Amy Adams lead performance. I knew hardly anything about the movie going in which turned out to be a great think - I kept expecting Chris Pratt to turn up in it, I got it mixed up with that film he was in with Jennifer Lawrence.
Sometimes films with aliens who turn out to be benign lack a kick at the end... because they're Not that Bad. But in this case there's an emotional kick because of Adams' daughter. I had a sob at the end. I did see it on a plane...
