Is Arrival good for learning English?

Arrival can help advanced learners become more confident with fast and natural English. The narrative adds extra difficulty because learners need to track events, motives, or character relationships. The language can be demanding, as characters often use less common expressions and more specific terms. Conversations usually leave enough room to process what is being said. If your English is close to B2/C1, Arrival can be useful for building confidence with more complex narratives.
