Unverified

I only watched this because there were a bunch of 9 and 10 star reviews here so I figured this movie was as good as the Godfather but then I watched it or attempted to and I was amazed at how boring it was.

This is a bigfoot movie but it's not a monster movie at all, but man, it's so poorly written and directed it's like watching paint dry. You have to ask yourself how does something liek this get made. Yes, it's very low or no-budget "movie" but how do things like this get out to Amazon or whatever to be seen?

I guess anyone can make a "movie" now.

Upon further inspection all the "reviews' here are done by "people" with one review. This movie. I wonder who all those "people" are?

Don't fall for it folks. Take it from someone who did not work on this amateur-fest. Boring as hell.

This movie was awesome. The storyline was great, actors did a good job portraying their characters and I liked the ending. It's a believable story. Scott always produces good films but this one is one of his best. I love all the scenery shown in the movie as you really get a feel for how difficult the terrain can be trying to study these creatures. I also liked how people characters were open minded about the possibility bigfoot exists it really added to the movie. Id put this up there with Willow Creek and Exists. It's definitely worth the watch especially if you like more believable movies about bigfoot.

I had a lot of fun watching it with a group of friends. The film sparked some good conversations about how far some people will go to prove the existence of unverified animals. The movie builds in intensity throughout, and I couldn't tell what was going to happen until the very end. I also appreciated the realistic attitude towards the unverified creature, more scientific than slapdash. No cliché shock tactics, which seem to be common in monster movies. It was refreshing to not have to look at far fetched overdone CGI images. The movie had a more rugged and real feel to it and I loved the scenery.

My husband and I just finished watching Unverified. I'm not easy to please but this movie was surprisingly good. You have to have a brain a bit bigger than that of a gnat (unlike the first reviewer) to appreciate how the story unfolded. It's not like watching paint dry. At first I was REALLY skeptical as to whether we'd turn it off in the first 5 minutes but we were both glad we watched it all the way through. I didn't recognize any of the actors but they were all really good and really believable. All in all, we both enjoyed the movie. I also told my husband that I was so happy that it kept me interested rather than looking at the clock wondering when it would be over. Go in with an open mind. If you have a short attention span, find something else to watch. Know your shortcomings and move on, otherwise just sit back and enjoy the movie.

As far as Bigfoot movies go this one is a couple of notches above the usual found-footage, rip-up the campers rubbish starring a baggy gorilla suit.

That said... it's not great either. The acting is fair but the plot/storyline is very thin, especially when it comes to the legal/law enforcement side of things.

Don't expect to see the creature either. This movie tries to explore the 'protect the cryptid from the rednecks' line without attempting to degrade the movie by showing the creature using a sad, baggy gorilla suit. By not showing the creature they have actually done a better job of it.

Sadly the plot itself has more holes in it that sasquatch hide full of buckshot holes but aside from that it is watchable and a refreshing change from the killer Bigfoot gorefest genre.

If you like Bigfoot movies then this one is worth a try.
