    Looking at the trailer, it doesnt look like any new ideas will emerge from this movie. The film dynamics sound like 'close encounters of the third kind' meets 'raiders of the lost ark'. I suppose, if the movie's outcome is a recognition of the extraterrestrial presence on Earth, then atleast something constructive will be the result.

    Sort of interesting yes, but if a trailer wasn't interesting the marketing team aren't doing their job. Is Gillian Anderson playing Scully in this? Even the hair's the same.

    The movie vaguely reminds me of the 2009 film Knowing, which had a similar premise (and wasn't bad).

    How can it be a movie about UFOs and aliens if it doesn't show a picture of the the blue chicken god nor his companion the golden gumby triangle alien. Geez ........

    Seems to be following the UFO O'Hara airport encounter then extrapolating on it. I'd watch it just for Gillian alone she normally choses good scripts with good complex believable characters. I liked her besides The X files in the Brit series 'The Fall'

    Thx for the heads up on this flick. I'm adding it to my portable hard drive now and will be taking it with me to my cottage this coming weekend for my 2 weeks vacation in the mountains of Quebec. I've been raiding the Avalon library for the last few weeks adding video...and this tweaks my curiosity. I have a computer up there, but no internet.

    I loved the original X-Files; I think there was probably more truth than fiction to this series;

    yrs. ago I saw in an interview (read report?) with/about Gillian Anderson-

    she stated she felt frustrated because she never knew what she was doing with the role of Scully; but that probably contributed to her amazing success; she just played it straight without any theatrical 'emotional blackmail' to her audience-

    as an aside: I'd love to know who her plastic surgeon is... :-)))

    As an aside, a cousin by marriage is Gillian's cousin. This cousin is male and he and Gillian look astoundingly similar. He has a very, very youthful look-no plastic surgery. Same eyes and amazing bone structure.

    I enjoyed 'UFO' and found it to be definitely a cut above much of the drivel which comes out of Hollywood. It largely avoided the clichés and heroic/patriotic obsession which drags most of the sci-fi genre down. It was realistic in presentation, understated and thought provoking.

    The only thing which, for me, really raised an eyebrow was the way at the end that the FBI man appeared sort of avuncular and harmless.... as though the Agencies are really here to protect us all.

    Ok, so we may disagree (or be unsure) as to where all those complex signals were coming from, but for the film: I recommend... a class act, IMO.

    ...
    Well if you think of how "the agencies" like the FBI actually work in real life, that probably fits. While the letter agencies may have some projects that are definitely not in humanity's best interest, and while they do sometimes take direction from some elite assholes with their own self motives in mind, not everyone who works for the FBI is going to even know this at all ... in fact 99.9% will not. These agencies are just as departmentalized as military in many cases and few really know the larger pictures of what they are working on or what the overall goal is for the project. Only a few at the top would know this.

    It's not like when you join the FBI you have to swear to disembowel yourself if you don't bow to the high Satan and try your best to destroy humanity; or that the FBI is only employed by alien evil hybrid monsters -- we all might imagine that somehow, but obviously nothing like this is actually true in reality. Real human people with families work at the FBI, many of them good caring people, and most don't know if what they are working on is really for ... they've all believe what they do is for the best, bar maybe a few at the top circles.

    Thanks for the 2 cents though, I think I'll check this movie out ...

    So much for Anderson finally leaving X-Files after 30 years only to find her typecasted self, milked again for what seems a low budget b-movie. As if we haven't had enough of her deadpan, mediocre at best, performances all these years.

    Any movie about UFOs, even bad, propaganda, lousy, lies movies like "the fourth kind", are good for raising awareness. And in that sense kudos.
