Resumen
Reviewers say 'Encounter' receives mixed reception due to misleading sci-fi marketing, disappointing those expecting alien themes. Praised for strong performances by Riz Ahmed and child actors, and its exploration of PTSD and mental health, it faces criticism for inconsistent writing and an anticlimactic ending. Some appreciate its dramatic, psychological shift, while others feel deceived by the marketing. Cinematography and direction are lauded, but the plot and pacing are contentious.

Only reason this movie gets sich low ratings is because people expected it to be a sci-fi thriller and not a drama. This movie is a solid drama with some thrills at the end.
I didn't read any reviews for this movie before watching, and I'm glad I didn't. Although it might not be your classic si-fi, I believe it was marketed like this for a reason to keep you guessing.
The acting was brilliant by the boys. Their performances are genuinely one of the most realistic for children I have seen.
It clearly isn't for people who are after a shoot-em-up alien flick (see the 1 star reviews), but much more a commentary on mental health, treatment of ex-soldiers, and the lack of empathy from the general system.
This movie is not a no-brainer.

Nothing surprises me anymore. Another good movie that a lot of people hate. If this one isn't entertaining enough for some people I wonder what they find entertaining? Encounter keeps you guessing for a long time, what I found very cleverly done. Maybe the haters are not pleased with the outcome, because they were expecting something else, but it doesn't really matter. If you like a slightly mysterious story, with some good acting you can't really go wrong with Encounter. Riz Ahmed, playing the main character, was very convincing in his role, and the two kids also looked very natural in their roles. It's not easy to find good child actors but these two did a good job. I thought the story was pleasant to follow so I really don't get why this movie gets so many negative reviews. I wouldn't pay too much attention to the low scores and give it a shot, you might like it like a lot of other people did.
It's a good movie, but because of the milseading tags it begs for bad reviews from those who went to watch expecting a sci-fi movie. I'm one of those. If I were looking for a PTSD, drama movie, I would definetly have liked it more, but instead I felt.deceived and disappointed.
Riz is slowly becoming one of my favourite actors, I am yet to see a performance from him that didn't impress me.
The movie starts with the great premise and its accompanied by another great performance by Riz and solid performance from boys, especially the older one.
The road trip interaction between father and its two sons is the one thing that holds this movie to be better than average for me.
What let's it down from being great is change of direction of the movie from about half way point.
From building brilliant suspense, to quickly resolving it, and disregarding it, towards the ending, that we have seen many times before.
