Another one of those found footage movies , I have been looking forward to this movie since the trailer came out.
The trailer seem great however this as got to be one the BIGGEST Disappointment's Ever! (I love most found footage movies.
This as got to be the most boring-est and dullest movie I have ever sat thought, there nothing really happens until hour into the movie.
Little things were like over in an flash and then panic and then it's calm down for again until last five minutes of the movie, where the movie start going and of course ends!
The scenes was okay but nothing great at all as there were no suspense in this movie at all, not sure what to thing of the Alien.
I felt I seen this done before and better in Alien Abduction: The McPherson Tape (Which was not great but still miles better then this movie)
And what hell was the point of that end of Credit scene, Blue sky!
The acting was wooden at times by lead Male, the Girl scream was good!
One of the worst and dullest of them Found footage movies (I have seen more then few)
3/10 Very, Very, VERY! Poor!

The most annoying couple in Found Footage history combined with a truly imbecilic plot make this a challenge to sit through....
The barn obsessed 'hero' is such a Putz, you wonder why anyone would want to spend more than 10 minutes in his company (even the 'alien' seems annoyed)
'Unaware" does occasionally have some riveting dialogue:
Joe: I'm going back to the barn
Lisa: no...come back to bed, babe

I have been going through a "found footage" binge recently devouring everything in my way. I can look past all the petty issues people have with the genre. I've seen tons of movies with terrible reviews that I thought deserved 8 or 9 ratings. But this movie is one of the worst,and believe me I've seen some stinkers.
It is basically a really lame version of the "McPherson tapes" but lacking any of its charm. The characters are unlikable,and do unbelievable things(even by found footage standards).The basic formula for a good film with no budget is good character development , tension building,and strategically placed scares,this film does NOT deliver.

UNAWARE is another found footage style movie with a sci-fi rather than horror angle. Another reviewer was right on the money when he said that ALIEN ABDUCTION: THE MCPHERSON TAPE which was ten times the film this is; not a perfect film by any means, but one which had plenty of incident and creepy stuff going on throughout to recommend it.
By comparison, UNAWARE is very dull and threadbare. At least half of the running time has nothing going on apart from the dull two protagonists wandering around and chatting. There's supposed to be mystery here, and a sense of pervading horror at something nasty in the garage, but it doesn't really work. It feels instead like the characters are just treading water and waiting for the good stuff, which never arrives anyway (the budget is so cheap that we just see a couple of things in the distance and that's it). Despite being beautifully shot - the camera-work is refreshingly non-shaky and the locations are great - the lack of incident and narrative makes this a very tedious watch.

I couldn't even get past 30 minutes of this film. The first ten minutes is nothing but footage of them in a car. He's mumbling so I turned up the telly, but then she was shrieking so I had to turn it back down. The next ten minutes are of them walking around the grounds, having a really boring conversation over dinner and him proposing in the most boring way. Then he decides to go poking around in the barn. Even this was boring. I gave up at this point and turned it off. I'm all for a slow burn, but only if something is grabbing my attention in the meantime. Chemistry, good acting, something. But no. There was nothing at all. I don't know what the world is coming to if this drivel won awards.
