Directed by Denis Villeneuve, the film it offered a stirring riposte,
but done the right way. Arrival
certainly isn’t lacking in Hollywood dazzle: there’s scale and bluster; there’s
incredible special effects; there’s pace and tension. But it is also an
intensely cerebral piece of work, transforming Ted Chiang’s short story into an
atmospheric wrong-footing puzzle which plays with narrative conventions and
linguistic head-scratchers.
