   Arrival   
   2016 PG-13 Rated PG-13 1hr 56m   
      
   Confronted by a mass landing of alien vessels around the globe, military   
   leaders seek the help of brilliant linguist Louise Banks in an effort to   
   communicate with the extraterrestrials and determine their intentions.   
   Cast: Amy Adams, Jeremy Renner, Forest Whitaker   
      
      
   Any tech advanced enough is indistiguishable from magic, and boy is that true   
   of this dud.  I liked the aliens, I liked the whole learning language thing.    
   But it's all so leaden and ponderous.  And the ending, sigh...
