First off several times the background music was so distracting ( like nails on a chalkboard). I ended up muting it then put the closed captions on - it was difficult to hear any dialogue. Why wasn't there an aerial view of the crop circle created by the Nat Geo people?Also, after the guy had a dream about a crop circle appearing in a specific area-they CLAIM that one appears in the exact location in his dream, really?!? Also, all the stuff about the nodes could have been staged. Seems like their need is so great to see a crop circle that they will just make it happen. And perhaps the circle took more than one night to appear?If nothing else was accomplished by this film at least Charlie came out of the closet to his folks. Ha ha
... View MoreI don't know why I watched this because I hate documentaries, especially from paranormal (try to find a way to put what they are...) basically paranormal researchers seem to like to make money off other peoples trauma/ experiences, and give little back to the community they take from, but fanaticism, conspiracy theories far far away, and the death cull of self made white coat pig disinformation agents without pay...like Psychiatrists.This movie says so much about the world we live in and the state of education, when genius comes off as insanity. Basically being yourself, being an individual not caring what people think, true punk rock anarchist"AMERICAT"values, are seen as queer, the original meaning, meaning strange, having unjustly connotation of not being right. There was probably one lone Nicola in Nazi Germany looking at all the German's just doing it to the end of their world, popping till they can't stop into seizers with lust for ADEL, buying all his albums, trying all his words on for size singing them to themselves in the shower, I'm a Nazi, I'm a Nazi, hallalulaaahhhhh.Then the Nazi gets out of the shower and wipes the scum covered mirror across, and he screams, because he's not a Nazi he's an American? Which is the worst kind of Nazi cause there the religious type. Sitting at the bottom feeding off the glower of a culture machined Apis, knee out with nothing, but ready to come to the aid of ADEL. "How could you say that about ADEL, Adelpho is more beautiful and talented then you'll ever be and he does so much up on that stage for humanity with his beautiful voice....mamamammmmmDUH....DUH...DUHHHHhhhh eerrrrrrrrrrrrrr....(REAL AMERICATS SWARM IN ON PLANES) Bombs explode, One lone man spots a weeping beautiful soul in the street who doesn't blend in with the rest of the human bland wall paper strewn of dead souls. A glow, a luster, saving her is the most important thing, for saving her we preserve what she has..."Nicola" I'm on my way to save yo....." (boom) a grenade goes off and the hero is thrown to the floor among incoming enemy fire. He closes his eyes hoping for a quick shot to end him. Then he feels the arms of an angel around him. "What is happening am I in..." "Are you ok?", Nicola asks, "You know why I was sitting there...I had a dream that you were dying, that a good person was...and I came here to save you...I thought I wouldn't find you and I started to weep and their you were like an explosion going off in front of me."You will find down every avenue, a lull, a congregation eventual leading to one place...It says a lot about our country that the message is loud and clear and nobody wants to hear it, they want to fight, fight against the people who have come to set them free from the identity programming brain damage done by religious Nazi sobs...
... View MoreThis is one of the greatest mockumentaries I've ever watched. When you watch the film, you can easily understand that Charles Maxwell built a story on people's most extreme beliefs. It's enough just to look deeply in the dialogues and characters to see this movie is a mock.The inventor, the hoaxer, the producer... They all make fun of people who see this movie as a real documentary.Let me give you an example. The inventor of the machine is a real freak (by "freak" I mean it is a fictional fun character) and he just invents a device from the crop circles. There is no scientific source for the device they are talking about. It's just a simple mock. This is a speech from the producer of the film: "I mean, it was a matter of life and death. They were convinced, you know, that they could be killed for trying to create this free- energy device, right? That big oil was somehow gonna send commandoes, you know, um, through the windows with machine guns and..."I guess they all tell us the story about this movie.Great mockumentary!
... View MoreHere on IMDb this movie has a 6.1 rating out of 44 users. On Netflix, it has less than 3 stars. This film deserves much more, and you must know that going into it, because crop circles have never held particular fascination to me, but the subject matter is the foundation for a movie that shifts and grows throughout into so much more. It is multi- dimensional, and the people appearing in it are treated with a positive and light-hearted touch that goes beyond your personal beliefs about aliens and crop circles. It's funny at times, and while they do poke fun at some of the people in the film, they do it to themselves as well. It's not meant to change your specific views regarding the extraterrestrial, but to encourage you to see what great potential can come from the work and care you put into whatever drives you, regardless of what others believe is possible.
