Sorry, but dull dull dull. I'm into very clever mind stuff and slow.

Sci-fi but this was boring and pointless and well over-hyped as usual.

Imagine you're a housewife who's grown three kids & had job in a.

Kindergarten and suddenly you're called on by military to talk to.

Octopus like aliens because you had a college degree in languages and.

Can speak 10 human languages. Then imagine a floating camera following.

You around as you meander around every minutiae of moving around &.

Eventually meeting the aliens. Its all portrayed from point of view of.

Housewife who's never contemplated such wondrous things, only looking.

After cute little children. And, thats the film. The sting in the tail.

Is that the housewife part never really happened but happens now... May.

Have worked if it wasn't so long and something else happened. Oh yes,.

The Chinese, of all people, known for their jumping into war at the.

Drop of a hat, the savages they are, want to start a war with the.

Aliens.

This is the outpourings of an America that has no clue of the world,.

And not much about sci-fi or about mathematics, science or military.

Avoid. Unless you're a housewife (who isn't highly educated).
