I never really got into this film. Conceptually, it should work, but I didn't believe it at all. I don't know if it was Jodie Foster or the unsatisfying conclusion, but I never connected with it at all. |

I can't over look the ending and some of the other concepts of this film. It starts of well, but the falls off and becomes unbelievable - just like the movie and Jodi Foster's character. I would stay away unless you LOVE foster and sci fi. |

Contact |
|
Contact is one of Robert Zemeckis's most disappointing films. It has a well written screenplay and good special effects but it's slow and downright boring. Jodie Foster is good in her role, Jena Malone is good as young jodie and William Fichtner is also good. but Matthew Mcconaughey is wasted and Tom Skerritt is simply annoying. The "twist" is ridiculously stupid and there are just to many false-endings. This is a big waste of a good concept. |

All depends on one scene. |
|
A movie you watch and are interested in throughout and you continue to watch for awhile longer. Then bam you get hit up with the pay off and it all depends on how you feel about that payoff that makes this film good or not. I am mixed with the scene therefore I give it a mixed review. |

A virtual rarity in sci-fi movies and soon to be an extinction based on the box office totals of the past few years, Contact delivers a perfect blend of budget and story to produce the best sci-fi movie ever made. The age old question of "Are we alone?" at the forefront is tackled with great thought and believability and the answer only raises more questions. While certainly the best sci-fi is idea/plot driven doesn't mean the actors can be taken for granted. Foster shines, especially in the later travel sequences when facial expressions tell the story, a lesser actress would have certainly made it cheesy or unbelievable. McConaughey proves to be a non factor and keeps his shirt on through most of the movie. It will be a long time before before this perfect storm is recreated in the... |
