    Genre: NOT Documentary.... is a Sci-fi

    An intelligent, a novelty and curious way of expressing facts, fiction, and your own thoughts on this subject. Brilliant and refreshing; and again NOT a documentary, but a sci-fi fiction!

    Seriously Flawed (Pseudo)Documentary

    One highly opinionated woman holds forth melodramatically for what seems like forever. Even a half-hearted attempt at editing out the interminable "dramatic pauses" would cut the length by 75%. As a veteran of watching dozens of UFO documentaries, I can tell you there is nothing here that hasn't been included in other films, and more interestingly, I might add. There are more UFO documentaries to see than most people will ever have time for. Skipping over this one will most likely lead to seeing something much more interesting and informative.

    SHE IS THE MISINFORMATION

    ABOUT HALFWAY THRU IT BECAME CLEAR THAT SHE WAS IN FACT THE ONE BEING DECEPTIVE AND MISLEADING ABT WHAT SHE BELIEVES. CLEARLY, THIS MOVIE WOULD NEVER HAVE BEEN ALLOED TO BE MADE IF SHE STATED THINGS TO BE THE EXACT OPPOSITE OF WHAT SHE CLAIMS.... MAKES ABSOLUTELY NO SENSE, NO LOGIC TO HER CLAIMS AS SHE DOES A COMPLETE 180.

    ONE SH KEEP IN MIND THAT IN ORDER FOR SOMETHING TO B BELIEVEABLE, THERE HAS TO BE SOME TRUTH TO THE MATTER AS SHE PURPORTS TO BE.

    DO NOT WASTE UR TIME.

    Wow! Difficult!

    Wow! This is a difficult one. Is she more credible than Lazar or Greer? No. Is she more believable than them? Absolutely!

    Regarding who Dr Laura Gale is - I have no idea, like so many others, I've not found much except my own questions on forums. Based on that, I can only assume that a lots of 'not so important facts' have been changed, like her name, the TLA, boyfriends, childhood trauma.

    What did impress me, is that it wasn't too sensationalised.

    It did NOT have 30+ videos from unknown sources. It did NOT have opinions from 30+ people. Though Lazar makes an appearance for all of about 9 seconds - that was the moment I had a little cackle :) This could very well have been my story if I lived in America.

    Documentary of innovative fantasy

    As a science nerd I was intrigued by the simplicity and sense of plausibility to the plotline. There is no book and I can find no existence of Dr. Laura Gale Phd. I think this was a very artistically innovative way to make a movie during the Covid19 pandemic to feed an audience begging for input to dull their insanity. So kudos to director for finding a way to make a buck in 2020 and distract us for a few minutes. I can honestly say after watching I wanted it all to be true but in reality suspect none of it is.
