"Contact" is praised as one of the best space movies, comparable to "Interstellar." It features a compelling blend of science fiction, religion, relationships, destiny, and astrophysics, with a standout performance by Jodie Foster. One reviewer found it emotionally moving, rating it 7.5/10.
Amazing science fiction with Jodie Foster that blends religion, relationships, destiny, and astrophysics. If you liked Interstellar, you will love this.
One of the best space movies in my opinion. It’s long, but I think it’s all worth it. I have it close to interstellar in terms of space movies
7.5/10 - i sobbed
