How It Feels
Read from this film's synopsis, keywords and credits, and used to work out what it sits beside.
A buddy-cop thriller that uses alien arrival as a lens for exploring racism and social tension. It's a propulsive, action-driven film that wears its commentary lightly while delivering solid genre thrills.
