Though many critics praised the film’s visuals, a good number also noted its narrative shortcomings in early reviews.
It’s also always cool to see some behind the scenes shots, with director Denis Villeneuve stepping into the world of the film to help shape Amy Adams’s performance.
Highlight the fact that the film is premiering in IMAX, Paramount just released several stunning images and two new clips from Arrival that highlight its larger-than-life feel.
This awards season contender might fare better for Best Cinematography than Best Adapted Screenplay, but we’ll hold off judgment for now.
