Not at all, I know dozens of people working on cinema, I still haven't found a single one that thinks Arrival isn't great and that's the kind of people that deeply analizes movies, Arrival is a masterpiece on its genre, a great adaptation of a great (and multi-awarded) novel, from the writting to the perfect direction.

Plenty of people who work on cinema out there and many of them have made shit movies. Plus there are critics who gave the movie a rotten score. I don’t know about the book but there’s so many unanswered questions in this movie because a lot of things don’t make sense to me.

There is a degree of ambiguity, which doesn't mean that the movie doesn't makes sense, it doesn't fully explain you how the comprehension of the circular language works, giving space to some free interpretations, but that doesn't make its reflexions about comunication and language any less valuable, or the execution any less perfect. The novel was great, a very interesting reflexion about the (non)existence of free will, very recognized by important publications and awards, the movie translates the same story with a perfect direction, great cinematography, artistic design, music and a wonderful Amy Adams, it deserves nothing but praise.

And please..."there are critics who gave it a rotten score" the movie has a 94% in the tomatometer... those were only exceptions.
