User Reviews

enjoyable film not to be taken too seriously

I have been puzzled as to all the bad reviews about this film. Whilst it will not be a contender for any of the film awards, it is still an entertaining film. The story follows two men who hoax an alien autopsy from actual footage that one of them has actually seen, it will become clearer in the actual movie. I do think the scenes where they are doing the autopsy are in fact quite funny and from watching it being filmed it is difficult to understand how anyone took it seriously. The performances in the film are of an acceptable standard, nothing special, the two leads have acted before in children's television series, but nothing to this extent. The only thing I will say is that I thought I was watching Ant and Dec not the two characters they were meant to be playing. I think that if you go in with an open mind and do not expect be challenged then I think that you will enjoy this film.
