This was a good movie, but you would have to have an understanding of science and science fiction to fully get it, as many refrences are made. The main character, Ellie Arroway, is the leading scientist on a team trying to discover other civilzations in the universe. Throught the movie, I had to pause it and ask my dad "Wait, what just happened?" or "Wait, what was the signifigance of that part?" because I do not have a strong understanding of science fiction. Overall, it was a good movie!

Cool sci-fi movie... Very nice!
I watched this movie with my mom after doing an astronomy unit about the possibility of other life on planets. (it was a really cool unit!) We both liked it a lot when started! There were a few scenes with some iffy things, so it wasn't a movie for my 7 yr old brother and 3 yr old sister. But overall, it was interesting, actually captivating. Such a mysterious, gripping subject, so I definitely wanted to keep watching the whole movie through. Pretty good!
