Arrival (2016)

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt2543164

Fantastically minimal in its treatment of a gigantic theme, this beautifully nuanced sci-fi treats an alien landing with a sense of contained realism that is very rare. A slightly flat finale lets it down but overall this is a hugely enjoyable think-piece with impressive lead acting and direction.

Four stars
