We are joined by Mr. & Mrs. Flicks for this one!

Folks, this film was just GRIPING and AWESOME! Thought it was going to be a movie about Aliens coming to take over..... WRONG!!! Big emphasis on how different cultures, societies, and world leaders would react upon the arrival of them, UNKNOWN. The arrival will bring the minds together, and shed light on what needs to be done in the future if we were to survive as a specie. The cinematography, oh my goodness! Each frame is perfectly shot, and there is no moment in the movie that isn’t utterly gorgeous. The casting was perfect. Adams and Renner essentially carry this film with breathtaking ease — their on-screen chemistry is a huge contributor to the success of this movie. Thanks to all who recommended this!

Arrival FULL REACTION

Comments

The reveal of Louise’s acceptance of her future even knowing that she would lose her child to cancer and her husband/marriage because of her choice to have the child only emphasizes why the aliens gave her, and only her, the gift/ability to see the future. Knowing the outcome doesn’t diminish the journey. I have rewatched this movie many times and still get wrapped up in the whole timeline / how & when you would actually know that you “knew” that was your future… still hurts my head. Great insight and reaction!!!

Any time frame on the kinsman movies?

Welcome, Mr. & Mrs. Flicks! It was nice to have you here; I hope you come back for another reaction some time. 😊 This was a truly special reaction from Badd Medicine. The way you all delve into the story and keep open minds and curiosity makes you all refreshing reactors to watch. And not to make anyone uncomfortable, but the conversation around what would you do if you knew your future hit me in the feels. It’s not the same as losing a child, but years ago the man I thought I would spend the rest of my life with died in a car accident. In the months and years following, I asked myself if I knew he was going to die, would I have gotten together with him and instead chosen to avoid that pain? I finally realized that he would have died either way. Instead of not being with him I would’ve chosen to love him better.

Love this movie and your reaction. I thought it was really funny how you compared it to Independence Day several times even though I'd say this movie is the exact opposite take on the same topic. In ID everything is cheesy and schlocky, everyone is cracking jokes and everything is blowing up whereas here everything is slow and methodical, emotional and philosophical. Stories like this where the Sci-Fi elements are tools used to tell a story that's really about the human condition is where the genre got started and where it is at its best. Too bad today it's mostly "lasers and pew-pew" and that can be fun but it's great to see a movie not do that.

The problem with Louise's choice is that it was a selfish choice. She didn't take into account how her husband would feel or how her daughter would feel having her life stripped away from her. She should have adopted a child who needed parents instead of creating a child who would suffer unimaginable pain and face her death too early.

Yeah.... its not close to Independence Day at all. lol. It was a wild finish and they just hit you with all the emotion.

Didn't think of it like that. Good to have this different perspective. Makes one think a little deeper.

Such a great movie. I def recommend Denis Villeneuve's other works like Prisoners and Sicario

Badd Medicine

I don't think Sicario is on the list. We'll add that.

I'm not sure I agree. First of all, I'm not sure how changeable the future is. Like could she have even made a different choice? But that quandry aside, I've never lost a child, but I know people who have, and many of them would say that they would rather have had and loved that child and lost them, than never had them in their lives at all. I think in seeing the future, Louise already loved her daughter so much, and saw what joy she brought to Ian too, that she couldn't imagine a world where Hannah never existed. She knew what joy Hannah would bring to the world, even if it was brief. We all die (and no human lives very long in the grand scheme of things). Does that mean it would be better for us to have never existed at all? I think knowing we only have each other for a limited time makes us appreciate each other more and makes that time we have together more precious. Maybe we should all live more like Louise. If I knew I was going to die next week, I would rather have had the time I got than not lived at all. How do we know Hannah felt any differently? (Totally get where you're coming from; just philosophising here because this movie makes me feel things!) :)

Megan the Librarian

As a language nerd, I love that they made an alien movie where the linguist is the hero! Haha! And she's right. The language we speak shapes the way we see the world. Like how in English we say "time is money" and we use words for time that treat it like a commodity. You can SPEND time, WASTE time, TAKE time, GIVE something /someone your time. Other cultures whose languages talk about time differently may have a fundamentally different understanding of it. And I find that FASCINATING! Glad you guys like this one; it's quite a ride. ...not an action-packed ride like most alien movies, but an emotional and intellectually-stimulating ride nonetheless.

Lena
>>100487738

To your question: How do we know Hannah felt any differently? We don't know - that's the point. We shouldn't be making decisions for others, especially children who are not even conceived yet. If you were told that you could press a button, and that means somewhere in the world, somebody would be born, live their lives until they were 15 and then die a painful death, would you do it? If your answer is no, then why is it okay because you happen to love this person? If your answer is yes, I would ask why you think you know better than that person that actually has to live that life.

love you guys... just sub for you 4 tho... not the guests

Great reactions and responses to the movie's question and themes! I like how the film created a funky ride that, in the end, makes the viewer explore, from a different persepctive, their own parenting feelings and thougts! I also like the cool symbologies for 'different perspective' - such as visually mixing up-and-down, and narratively mixing before-and-after!

The issue with this thought is that you don't know any better either. I've always hated this utilitarian look at people's lives. Like our lives are only worth living if we experience a minimal amount of suffering. If that was the case, then third would countries would be seeing the greatest suicide rates out of anywhere, but they aren't. If Hannah thought her life wasn't worth living, then she would have killed herself. I hear this same kind of argument used to justify abortion as well and it's just wrong. Every life has value, even/especially lives that nobody else wants or cares about. You aren't worthless just because nobody else loves you or actively wants you to exist.

Lena
>>100487738

Nobody knows what someone else's life will be like, but bringing someone into the world and knowing they won't have a chance to live is messed up to me. It has nothing to do with abortion because you can't abort what doesn't exist yet, unless you count egg removal. And you speak of suicide like it's just an easy choice anyone can make, even though it goes against our biggest instinct to survive. Most people want to live, even with suffering - but if we can prevent a life that will definitely include high amounts of suffering, why wouldn't you? And, again, the best option would be to find a life that is already born, already suffering, and rescue that one - otherwise known as adoption.

Marco Gutierrez
>>100487738

Because that isn't the best option. That's what you think the best option is, but it's hypocritical of you to claim that they're wrong for choosing their own offspring, but you're not wrong for choosing to adopt. You're placing an arbitrary right and wrong on each of these based on your views, but you have no *actual* metric by which to declare them right and wrong. You're simply *saying* that one is right and one is wrong. I can do the inverse of what you're doing and we're still in the exact same spot. The abortion example is exactly accurate. Both of these examples are cases of making sure someone doesn't get to exist. Abortion is making sure they don't get to exist past the womb, while doing it through the time stream's foreknowledge means they don't get to exist beyond the purely theoretical stage. Both examples end in the same result as murder: the individual in question doesn't exist anymore.

Lena
>>100487738

Why not have dozens of babies then if you are murdering everyone you don't give birth to? It doesn't make sense. You can't murder something that doesn't exist. She had a choice whether to conceive or not - that was the whole point of the movie. You also have a choice to have a baby every year of your reproductive life - is every woman murdering someone every month she isn't pregnant? You're right, that's my subjective opinion to save a homeless child rather than create a new child who will die in 13-14 years. Maybe that's not objectively right, but it makes sense to me.

Mariah Lovegood

I took Ian saying that Louise made the wrong choice as he thought she shouldn't have told him she can see the future and that their daughter was going to get sick. I think he preferred not to know the future.

Jenna

I had never seen this movie until yesterday, and I immediately came today to see if you guys had a reaction to it. Mind blowing! Incredible.
