Super interesting documentary about people's experiences with the extraterrestrial. If you didn't believe before, you might now!
I Want to Believe is a well-produced and compelling UFO documentary. Whether you already believe or not, this film does a great job at presenting evidence through interviews and footage with well-known "UFOlogists". I've seen a handful of documentaries about this subject and I Want to Believe is definitely one of the better ones! Totally worth checking out on Amazon prime!
A well-produced doc on ufology, I was pleasantly impressed with the depth, quality and presentation. Though I'm a skeptic, I'm also a big sci-fi fan and am fascinated with the topic, and this film successfully kept me interested throughout. I felt most of the interviewees were each qualified to speak on the subject, and I was relieved that some had some new insights I hadn't heard before. What I was particularly impressed with was the balanced approach it took, not trying to force you to believe, but laying out the data and letting you decide. And the amount of data, personal accounts and theories will give you plenty of food for thought. Would highly recommend for the doubters!
Im fan of the show Ancient Aliens so this doc caught my attention. It takes a couple of the shows more credible, level headed contributors and lets them talk about recent sightings in a cohesive way without the crazy spin and jumping to conclusions that Ancient Aliens is famous for.
I Want to Believe is one of the more compelling UFO documentaries that I've seen. I'm a bit of a skeptic still, but I like watching these films to see what they have to say and I Want to Believe definitely maintained my interest. The film presents well known UFOlogists, why they got into the field, and the most credible information about the subject. Whether you're a skeptic or a believer, I think you're going to want to watch I Want to Believe.
