Can go a little long at times and Woods is such an ass in this, but overall I really loved this story. Don't expect aliens everywhere, as it's more a film about science and faith, and how leaning towards one of those affects how we see things.

The scenes when they first get the signal are intense! Foster is amazing here. Busey has a nice crazy man role.

I personally liked the ending, how they dealt with the Aliens. A LOT of people hated it, but I thought it made sense. I also think the opening is brilliant: when she's trying to contact her dead father: heartbreaking!
