Review of Contact (1997) by Ben H — 22 Dec 2014
A grand, trying-too-hard, mess of a film in some aspects, a wonderful, gripping, unique drama in others. Less about alien contact, more about earth's response. Presents interesting, though agonizingly inadequate dialogue on faith and/vs science.
Ultimately, relies too heavily on following a narrative to allow the actual story to do the talking.
