I'm not a seasoned film critic but I can say I found this film interesting, exciting and intriguingly existential. The cast did a "stellar" job at creating suspense, dry wit, convincing comradery and sheer terror as they navigate first contact with an alien species. The quantum Scientist did an amazing job at holding her own as she's prematurely put in a position of ultimate responsibility. I've always loved Bruce Willis's acting and this piece of work showcases his exceptional acting skills really well. I would definitely watch this film at least 3 times to fully appreciate the entirety of the special effects and strong acting. ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

I really enjoyed this film. I found it a bit scary because I'm from Africa and I understand what it's like being an ex pat. I'm Caucasian but so much of who I am is African. I felt compassion for Luce but I was mostly a bit afraid of his character. I think Octavia Spencer should win an Oscar for her role. I have so much respect for her contribution to the story. She helped me see my split identity in such a grotesque but liberating way.
