Ufologists

Watched on Amazon Prime Video after being suggested to give it a watch.

Is it a Hollywood block buster? No! But what it is, is a low budget, light hearted poke at the world of UFO enthusiasts. In the style of This Country (which I am a fan of) and similar traits to Mackenzie Crooks 'The Detectorists', UFOLOGISTS shines with its array of quirky Cornish characters and interesting and often silly view points of local Cornish legends and landmarks, relating all to aliens and UFO activity.

This is a mockumentary and not to be confused as a serious film about UFOS! Although by reading some of the reviews on Amazon they may have been lead down the wrong path ha ha.

I highly recommend a watch as it gave me the biggest smile, and to add its worth watching just for the ending!! I was left with the warmest and feel good emotions. It was also fantastic to find additional material of the UFOLOGISTS on YouTube.

Well done all involved as I enjoyed it so much, I hope to see a sequel.

Witness, experience and accept! The truth is out there, well in Cornwall ,apparently! Ha ha.

Stumbled across this one night and it is just brilliantly funny. It follows a group of four blokes who meet up as part of a group investigating the existence of ufos.

It is shot in mockumentary style, and the humour comes from oddball characters but played straight.

You genuinely build up some affection for the characters, there is a bit of drama in there involving a disgraced former member and as the credits roll you want to see more of their world. It really would be great to have some sort of sequel or series that keeps the story going.

Big fan, I will certainly be watching for future work from those involved.

Loved this. The characters are well funny. Jason Gregg is a great actor and writer.

His ability to write comedy is bang on. Similar to The office (uk version), he has written in some hilarious sketches and cringeworthy moments that leaves you in stitches.

He has chosen a great range of actors that all bring their own qualities to the film.

I really believe this will be made into a series as there is so much scope for where this could go.

Jason Gregg be one to watch in the future as I think we"ll see a lot more from him and his directing on TV and film.

Also - It was great to see some loverly Cornish landmarks in the film.

Uncertain of what we were in for, we decided to watch UFOLOGISTS and settled in for our Friday Night Movie. Almost immediately, we found ourselves laughing and fully engaged with the characters. The film brought to mind beloved comedies like The Office and Fawlty Towers, delivering humor in a way that felt nostalgic and reminiscent of my younger days.

As the credits rolled, we found ourselves craving more. This film truly elevated our family's Friday Night Movie experience, and we wholeheartedly recommend it to everyone.

If you're on the hunt for a family-friendly film, look no further than UFOLOGISTS. It will transport you back to the classic comedies of yesteryear!

Writing and executing a film that is both heartwarming and funny is no easy feat, but Ufologists manages it with a blend of subtlety and absurdity.

It's less a film about aliens and more a story about people and wonderfully bonkers British eccentricity. It stands as a true antithesis to the seriousness and drudgery of modern life, offering a much-needed dose of escapism-now more than ever.

While it doesn't quite reach the heights of Roma, it is every bit as emotive and rewarding as any of Ricky Gervais's acclaimed works.

We could all use a little less Starmer-and a bit more Starman-in our lives.
