There were so many things that I enjoyed about this film: the insanely cool concept, Ellie and Palmer’s love story, Foster and McConaughey’s chemistry and the underlying theme of faith and truth not being mutually exclusive. Really good watch!

the universe is a pretty big place. If it's just us, seems like an awful waste of space.

So freaking good, kinda reminds me of Oppenheimer with the main scientist being ridiculed and placed on a global stage for questioning. The actress did a great job in the role, I’ve never seen her in anything else but I’m now a fan and of course I loved Mathew McConaughey in this

Interesting story line, was a bit slow at the start but really got invested as it went on. Not sure I’m sold on the ending but I liked it overall. McConaughey is so young!

Solid movie. Good dialogue about having faith.
The whole we build two was stupid. But ok.
Average government being bad. James woods just oozes schemer.

This was less about the aliens and how the world would be if we do make contact. And what an impressive way to show it. Different communities, different interpretation, the politics of it all. The blend of faith and science, the questionings, everything makes me love this one

I really enjoyed this movie. Jodie Foster and Matthew McConaughey are great in this one. Josie always puts that emotion into her films, and this is another one.

The end made my cry so hard. I love you Jodie foster her acting is so good so beautiful. I am feeling so full of hope for the world. The hopeful smiler. The idea of a gentle benevolent alien species that is wayyy more intelligent than us and it is so peaceful and loving because of that intelligence is like fucking me up rn. I want to talk to the kind aliens please they have so much knowledge.

For all its talk of spiritually and philosophy, it’s easy to forget how thrilling and even terrifying this movie is. Sometimes the way it handles its topics is a little silly, but the heart and themes are solid. Even if Matthew McConaughey’s character is kinda useless.

Wow!! I gotta say, I didn’t expect much from this and I got sooo much!! The plot, the parallels, the science and cgi were all so awesome!!! And I’m pleasantly surprised how little they focused on the romantic subplot. It also took me WAY too long to realize the one guy was blind💀

Beautiful ending visuals, very interesting themes of faith & science, and the possible harmony between the two. But I'm not sure the romance is particularly compelling.
