Summary
138 reviews put Steven Spielberg’s alien-conspiracy thriller at 84% on Rotten Tomatoes, with a 74 Metacritic score before its June 12 global theatrical release.
Critics largely praised the film’s blend of spectacle and philosophical weight, with The Hollywood Reporter, The Guardian, IndieWire and Empire highlighting Spielberg’s visual command, earnestness and personal investment.
Several reviews tied the movie to Spielberg’s earlier sci-fi work such as Close Encounters and E.T., while arguing its focus on secrecy, fear and truth gives the story a more mature tone.
Not all critics were convinced: the BBC called it a “drab X-Files episode,” and The A.V. Club said tangents and loose ends blunt the momentum, though even mixed notices still called it a thrill ride.
