"Great movie"

"This movie has been my favorite #romance #science_fiction movie for a while, mainly because it was a part of what got me interested in the #scifi_romance genre, also because I watched it before I read the book. In any case, the #aliens are well illustrated, and telling the story from the main character's POV gives you insight into both sides of the issue. It makes you realize the "bad guy" isn't always bad--it really is all about perspective. (My only negative comment is that others are right, this movie can be a little slow, but it's not really the actors' faults imo, more a lackluster script.) #thriller #alien_contact #dystopian #based_on_a_book"
"Is it cheesy and not nearly as good as the book? Yes. Do I still love it? Yes."

"The concept was excellent and I believe it was derived from a book with a comparable title. Being a fan of Soirse Ronan and Max Irons, I eagerly decided to give it a watch. However, I was left disappointed right from the start. Why did they choose to portray this intriguing idea in such a ludicrous manner? I cannot recommend it."
