About
You may like this if you enjoy quiet alien scares with family grief and faith themes, somewhat like Dark Skies; Not for you if you need nonstop action or airtight creature logic.
Pros: strong tension; emotional family focus; memorable performances | Cons: divisive faith themes; slow pacing; debated alien logic
