12.30.18Internet Finally getting around to this. I mostly liked it I guess... certainly I liked aspects of it:

Things I liked
-the music at the end. The instrumentation for the climax of the film was great and I found myself letting the credits play just for the music. Very good drone stuff that suits the vibe of the film

-The ideas behind it. I liked that it wasn't just an action movie

-the bear scene was pretty cool although it made no sense.


Things I didn't like:
-Something with the pacing felt very off to me. Maybe it was Jennifer Jason Leigh's performance but there was a lack of energy to the whole piece

-The tone comes off as too similar to Arrival, which I feel was executed much better.
