Arrival

After alien craft appear around the world, a skilled linguist is recruited by the military to help determine whether the visitors are peaceful or dangerous. As she works to establish communication, rising global tension makes understanding their language increasingly urgent.

My take

You may enjoy this if you like thoughtful science fiction focused on communication, big ideas, and emotional drama more than action; Not for you if you want a fast-paced alien-invasion spectacle.
