9/10, probably the best film I've seen this year - maybe even since Fury Road last year.

Go watch it.

Yeah first movie in a while where I had that "Oh... that's what's happening " moment

I saw it a few days ago. It's actually a very smart movie. The aliens are really a plot device. It's squarely about the linguist.

Been wanting to see it, but it seems like no one else wants to here.
