The film makes a home in your brain and the only cure is to see it again.
It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.
The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.
A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.
Brilliant , i hope for a reamake. Whith the same actor... And nolahn on the wheel.
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.

This movie has and always will be a personal favourite of mine. It not only examines the realistic 'what if' scenario if we were to meet life from other planets, but also the constant battle science versus religion poses. A well crafted sci fi with a stellar cast and great visuals!
