This is the only movie that I know of which uses Linguistics as its underlying science. I loved it.

Thank you. You just proved yet another fan of Arrival really doesn't understand it at all.
I mean, any movie I like I can at least defend it, warts and all.
But not fans of Arrival.
They say 'You just don't understand it' and that's the end of it.
I would be the same way if I had to defend this film. It's that bad. -

I don't get it. It makes no sense at all. That's the problem.
On top of that, there is no chemistry at all within the movie between characters. None.
And we are supposed to believe that Adams and Renner are going to fall in love and have a baby?
I do enjoy seeing fans of the movie incapable of explaining it, though. -

I know. That's what I said.
I would happily explain it to you, but we both know you're not about to accept the explanation and I'll just be wasting my time.
I'm sure if you were actually, genuinely pursuing the truth, you'd conduct a Google search, where I'm sure plenty of critics and analysts have already provided the answers you're looking for.
If you want my advice (I'm sure you don't, but I'll provide it anyway), try injecting a little humility into your personality and you'll find life becomes much more rewarding. No man knows everything. It's OK not to understand something. However, don't make the foolish, hubristic mistake of thinking that because you don't understand it, it's nonsense.
You're probably not aware that Arrival was a short story first, called Story of Your Life, lauded for its accurate portrayal of the nature of time and determinism.
It makes absolute sense, if you're prepared to accept the bizarre truth about reality.
Check my block list because you're probably on it.
