The Program

James Fox delivered a really good overview and summary on what's been going on in the government for the past few years in regards to the UFO/UAP topic. Don't be fooled, if this was a show presenting you a proof that this topic is real and we have alien invasion on the way, you would hear it in all news stations. What The Program does well is at least showing you that the topic of UFOs shouldn't be dismissed or ridiculed as there are many government, intelligence and military officials and who have been involved in it for years. What would be great is to make it more a documentary and less drama music and the deep voice of the narrator which is a bit childish for me. Anyway, best one I've seen so far. Well done James!

I'm going to keep this simple...we ARE NOT ALONE, WE HAVE NEVER BEEN ALONE! Those of a belief in God know that He is the creator of multiple universes, and uncalculable varieties of life forms and varying intelligences throughout the cosmos. Why? Because He's God. It is uninformed, uninspired, self-centered and egoistic thinking that bouys a belief that we are the best God could do. We are zygotes, a blink of the eye to the negative quadrillionth power in the universal timeline thus far. How do you profess the belief that God is who He says He is, "I am that I am", yet limit Him on the possibility of Him having created different life forms more advanced than us? "They" are just another representation of His omnipotence; a different form of life that He has ALSO bequeathed with free will. And just like us, because of the free will He gives us ALL, some do right, and others commit evil.

The Program has an interesting start as it seems to attempt to shine a light on a reported, and beyond government oversight, crash retrieval program that has been in existence for some eighty years. As hyped as I was going into this film I was ultimately disappointed - it simply provides cliff notes to information gleaned from public Congressional hearings and tidbits from witnesses: if you have been following all of this on your own there is little to be had here. Some witnesses are included despite them saying nothing, and that paints a telling picture of just how muddy this entire endeavor is, despite people believing we are on the path to disclosure. Yes, that's right, in the year 2025 it says more to say nothing - "I can't comment about that" effectively is a comment 'about that'. Quite sad. For me this tends to go off the rails a bit when it begins diverting off the trajectory of 'the program' and, once more, into witness scenarios - the sort you see on every other UFO/UAP/ET documentary or cable series.

Then you have the issue of witness integrity... And I sure do not envy James Fox for attempting to vet these people. One of his witnesses began to tell a slightly different story - that goes on to a very sensational arc - on a podcast: this part of this witness' story was not told in this film. This was so bad that, during yet another podcast with this 'witness', Fox threatened to leave if the witness was going to entertain discussing that story... That part of the witness' story by the way, despite spending time with James Fox and being interviewed etc, was never told to James. What's more, this same witness includes a massive detail in his story in this film that was left out in a podcast interview - which makes little sense (if you see a craft why is it left out here and there?). What that says to me is that this specific witness it not as credible as he may seem. Was this witness lying outright? I doubt it. But it is rather odd and a red flag. For some that might equate to Fox taking a hit in the credibility department... I do not hold him responsible. I do believe Fox is trying to inform and build momentum towards disclosure and, as a non-omnipotent human, he can only do so much in validating a witness. Some problematic people may slip through the cracks. I will not comment on this witness more than you can look for yourself on YouTube by looking at, perhaps, Julian Dorey's podcast.

So all in all, this is a very mixed bag. The Phenomenon and Moment of Contact both tower over this. As someone that has been into this subject since I was a kid I do look forward to more from James.

This IS the most up to date documentary on the phenomena. The pacing and the editing left a lot of room to digest the revelatory substance. There is no doubt, something is going on.

The first 2/3's of this documentary are some of the most important points to understand about modern phenomena. The normal person who doesn't know much or anything about the topic will face undeniable facts, from reputable sources. It was a perfect way to show anyone, that this topic is something to take seriously.

However, I am left with questions and potential motives about some of the witnesses/interviews, feeling very skeptical about one in particular.

Overall, it is a fantastic documentary. One that I would share with my friends (and some of my fam).

This documentary seems like a dime a dozen. It's the same old stuff that we've been hearing for years now. This is just another film regurgitating what we've already seen on YouTube, the news, etc. I have a lot of respect for James Fox, but not worth the money for the rental. Tell us something we don't know and then this would be a better review. It gives you a little more insight in how the government has gone out of their way to hide certain aspects of this case, but nothing that would surprise you. I don't understand why these whistleblowers don't just take a chance and tell us something of value. I'm tired of hearing, I can't talk about it. Oh wow, you don't say...
