UFO

Don't get me wrong, I nearly turned this off. It starts as many UFO documentaries do, with the usual talking heads spouting nonsense unsupported by evidence. I was distracted by my phone though so it stayed on, and wow. What a surprise. We got a rational and opposing point of view from some folk with actual critical thinking skills. Not only that, a revelation about The Phoenix Lights incident crops up, that actually cleared something up for me after more than 20 years. This series addresses both sides better than anyone has done before and lets you make your own mind up. For me though the addition of some sanity in the room for once won hands down. If you ask me, the truth isn't out there, it's right here.

I was warmly recommended to sit down and watch this 2021 mini-series documentary, so of course I managed to find the time to do so. And yeah, I must admit that I find the whole concept of UFOs and life beyond our own little planet to be rather interesting. So I had some expectations to this documentary.

And while "UFO" certainly is interesting and entertaining, there were some nice testimonies and interesting facts brought to light by the documentary makers here. So if you have an interest in extraterrestrial matters then "UFO" is definitely well-worth watching.

Now, it should be said that his series doesn't really paint a picture that either proves or shatters the claim of UFOs and extraterrestrial life. So you should take the information disclosed here with a grain of salt of course. But, I suppose it is as Fox Mulder's poster said: "I want to believe".

The narrative in "UFO" is good and helps to make the episodes rather watchable. And I do like that there is a fairly neutral approach in the documentary making, so it is not a biased documentary that you will sit down to watch.

My rating of "UFO" lands on a six out of ten stars.

It seems show after show after UFO show has been done and redone and nothing is ever added. The same rehashed videos we've all seen before, and endless interviews that change nothing.

Some hoax stuff in here yet they just leave it in? Really lowers the value of this show.

It's 2021 guys, if you don't have anything to add, don't make a show. And for god sakes leaves out the Skinwalker ranch stuff. OMG seriously.

This is just throwing everything that we know, regardless if it's been proven to be fake or not into a show and hoping nobody will notice. Good production, horrendous execution. They could make endless shows like this, always showing the same videos over and over.

This diced spaghetti salad could have been riveting, but leaving out pivotal details and voices in the UFO historical narrative weakens the arguments both for and against the phenomenon in exchange for exorbitant time spent on less significant details, but worst of all the chop suey structuring of the information in this scrambled eggs documentary makes for ADHD broken understanding that jumps from point C to point X to point L to point E to point R to point A, etc. Ever heard of a zig zag? Ever heard of a zig zag that u-turns and ties itself in knots? That's this series. Great music though...

If your like me and been into ufos for decades there is not much new here . This mini series is a great show for the newbie or someone who doesn't follow the latest ufo news . Well produced and written it covers a lot the important cases of sightings .

Episode 2 has some skinwalker ranch videos I have never seen before and they blew my mind .
