Review of Contact (1997) by Leonardo G — 02 Aug 2018
Robert Zemeckis's Contact is based on Carl Sagan's famous novel by the same name and it is one hell of a film. Rightly called the thinking man's science fiction this movie contains many awe inspiring scenes.
The opening shot which pans back into space, quietly humbling us by reminding our insignificance, the transmission and receiving of the signal, the machine and teleportation of Jodie Foster in it to meet the "makers", this film is filled with such scenes and joining them together is a fantastic story with an excellent pacing.
Contact polarized critics but this is a very good film and features some great performances by Jodie Foster, Mathew Mcconaughey and others.
