35 Sci-Fi Movies to Watch If You Loved Interstellar

After 12 mysterious spaceships land in different locations on Earth, linguist professor Louise Banks (Amy Adams) is tasked with something equally terrifying and difficult — to decipher alien language and attempt communication with the aliens. With the help of the US military, Banks uses the best of her skills to decode their symbols and avoid miscommunication with the creatures, which would inevitably lead to a world war of disastrous proportions. Similar to Interstellar, Arrival dives into the world of the unknown and human attempts to rationalize life outside of Earth.
