    Very funny movie!

    My 12 year old son and I attended this movie months ago at a test screening in New York. I'm always afraid to go to the movies with him, because more often than not the movies that are sold as "family entertainment" are actually really raunchy. But I must say, this was a treat. My son and I absolutely adored this movie together!!! It was funny and surprising and has a really clever twist ending that caught me completely by surprise. My son was excited by the ideas the movie raised, and has even gone on the Internet to research them further.

    I was most surprised by how good the actor who played Puddy was from "Seinfeld." I have never seen him in anything other than "Seinfeld," but he was wonderful! And he's handsome enough to be a movie star. I don't know why he isn't.

    The teacher in the movie is very good as well. She's a smart woman. She's not Pars Hilton. She could be a role model for young girls, which is a nice change. And the chubby police officer is very cute and very funny! My son still quotes lines from him.

    I suppose since this is a review, I should say what I didn't like, too. There are some police men in the movie that I didn't care for. And I didn't understand what the woman who ate dead birds was doing (don't ask!). But these scenes are really short and the rest of the movie was top notch!

    I hope it comes out soon, because my son would love to see it again, but I have not seen a single ad or poster. So who knows? But it is very good! See it if you can!

    Lots of fun

    I saw this at a free test screening a while back and it was very funny. The crowd laughed a lot and actually stood to leave and stopped to watch the jokes during the credits. It has an older feel to it like one of John Cusack's earlier "teen" movies. Worth seeing, especially as a 1st date film. The only knock I could have against it is that they play up Chris Elliott and Mo Rocca in the trailer and they really aren't in it that much(wish they were). Patrick Warburton, from Seinfeld, etc. is in it a lot though and is excellent. Fred Willard as the owner of the radio station is also very funny but he always has been from Mary Hartman through every Chris Guest film. David Alan Basche and Cece Pleasants are the stars though and they carry the movie well, playing off each other for both fun and romance. Worth the price of admission easily.

    Smart, Funny, Inventive - Believe In It

    Our hero is Dale, who hosts a radio show for people to call in with all of their UFO stories and other "out-there" ideas - and he wants to believe them. I know a lot of people exactly like this character, and I think its about time that he's the star of a movie.

    The movie moves forward with a search for the truth about a mysterious caller. Dale calls on his friends, sceptics and eccentrics alike - some are clichéd characters and some are original. Including some great comedic actors (like Ed Helms and Fred Willard), the laughs are endless.

    I thoroughly enjoyed this movie, as I'm sure that everyone involved in the making of the movie did as well. This is a well made independent movie that deserves to be seen.

    I highly recommend it to everyone who enjoys a smart, original, very funny movie about possible UFOs and aliens!

    Terrific Movie

    I saw this film and I knew NOTHING about it when I did. It was really cool. A funny movie that kept surprising me and then had a very cool ending that I didn't see coming.

    How often does that happen?

    This film is coming out in November and I recommend seeing it. Patrick Warburton, the guy who was Puddy, is really good. So is the star David Alen Basche.

    Ed Helms of the Office and The Daily Show has a funny cameo that you will not recognize him.

    I hope it becomes a hit a la Blair With Project

    I'll Believe You

    I went and saw this movie last night. It was well written and acted. It takes some twists and turns that are unexpected. I just loved the ending and I won't tell the secret. It had some great comedic actor and actresses in it. The three main characters are complimented be an array of cameo appearances by some well know people. I would recommend going to see this movie. It is rated PG and would be great for the kids. Holey Moley!!!!! It was filmed in my hometown of Melbourne, FL. I was able to see some of the local landmarks in the movie. That is another thing that made it great. David Alan Basche, Patrick Gallo and Cece Pleasents was outstanding in their roles of the late night disc jockey, Lovable local Policeman and science teacher. Their parts was played with conviction and realism.
