UFO is one of those based on a "True Story" movies about UFO sightings and the efforts the governments goes to cover them up.
It tells the story of one man and his obssession with UFO sightings and his determination to get to the truth of a recent sighting over an airport. A maths major he uses his skills to get to the bottom of it, but the "Powers that be" are onto him.
Starring Gillian "X-Files" Anderson this uses a more subtle approach so don't expect big flashy sfx, little green cgi men or anything in between.
Credit where credit is due this is a legitimately intelligent film but alas doesn't really culminate in what you'd expect. Sure it has a traditional beginning, middle and end but it all feels wafer thin and didn't engage me as much as I would have liked.
One for genre fans only methinks.
The Good:
A very smart movie
The Bad:
Everyone looks so damn tired!
Wafer thin plot
Things I Learnt From This Movie:
Things like this make me believe in UFO's even less
Gillian Anderson looks like she's been anal probed
