The Bluray release of the Universal monsters have been great, but it’s this Steelbook packaging of Alex Ross’ gorgeous artwork where Best Buy has outdone itself. Spectacular.

The transfer and overall quality of this movie is far greater than I anticipated. I haven’t watched it since I was kid, but it was like seeing it for the first time.

I'd seen the short film this was based on and was excited to hear it had been developed into a feature with James Wan. Seeing it in theaters, it was a pleasant surprise that delivered some good scares and atmosphere.

I saw this while it was in theaters and it's a fun take on ol' Bats. For this review I will focus on this release. The steelbook is fantastic. The art direction works well on the gloss finish. I'm impressed that Warner Bros. put some effort into the special features since they have a shoddy track record with that in recent years. The picture and sound is excellent as you'd expect.

I bought this for my girlfriend. While the movie itself is familiar if you've seen the animated movie, I will choose to focus on the features and overall quality.
The audio mix was overall competent, albeit unlevel. Songs would be robust and grand before turning to whispered, restrained dialogue, which resulted in riding the volume through the film.
The overall image is solid, the transfer looks great. The colors are vibrant.
The special features are nicely put together. Overall a solid release. I'd recommend if you're OK seeing the same story twice.

If you are going into Arrival expecting a typical alien invasion movie, you may want to temper your expectations. Instead, what you will get is a very heady existential drama about the plight of man when confronted with the reality of extraterrestrial life.
A topical story given the current sociopolitical environment in the world right now.

Fede Alvarez and company set out to go the opposite direction from their Evil Dead remake by making a film that relied more on plot and suspense. In this I believe they succeeded.
