But after turning over the tape to his boss Phil Gordian (Ron Silver), Zane's fired, his girlfriend (Teri Polo) gets transferred and his partner is found dead from a supposed suicide. Zane?s desperate search for answers leads him to Mexico and a mysterious power plant, generating more than electricity and run by people who are not what they appear to be.

Like Contact, The Arrival is an intelligent sci-fi movie that doesn’t rely so much on visual effects as it does on a skilfully directed original idea. By comparison, however, it comes across as the little brother to Zemeckis’s opus (in terms of budget, stars, runtime, etc.).

It’s pretty good fun as a guilty pleasure, but I would be afraid of using the word “smart” to refer to this film. The Arrival has a very serious sci-fi premise, but the execution is that of a B-movie, with awful dialogues and some truly WTF moments. The next time I want to discreetly kill someone, I will let a bathtub fall through the floor. Great idea. And the whole thing is brought down by Charlie Sheen, who doesn’t even look like Charlie Sheen. Actually, I don’t really how to rate it, two stars would be fine, but also four. I’ll leave it at three.
