I like it, but it's also a movie where world leaders act in the most unrealistically stupid way possible. It's where emotions take more precedence than any actual pretense of diplomacy. Humans being gaslit into allies by future-seeing aliens is also a bit too deterministic to be seen as any kind of moral victory either. I dunno, not a movie for me
