The Phenomenon

Surreal. Eye opening.

"The Phenomenon" is a compelling and thought-provoking documentary that explores the history and evidence of extraterrestrial encounters. Directed by James Fox, the film presents a wide range of compelling accounts from military personnel, government officials, and ordinary citizens who have had close encounters with UFOs. What sets this documentary apart from others in the genre is its balanced approach to the topic. Rather than presenting wild conspiracy theories or relying solely on anecdotal evidence, "The Phenomenon" offers a thorough examination of declassified government documents and footage, as well as interviews with credible witnesses who share their experiences in a clear and concise manner. The documentary is well-paced and structured, weaving together historical accounts of sightings with modern-day investigations and scientific analysis. It also delves into the government's role in studying UFOs, and the secrecy surrounding their findings. One of the most compelling aspects of the film is the personal accounts of individuals who have had encounters with unidentified flying objects. These stories are often emotional and raw, and provide a human element to the documentary that is both captivating and relatable. Overall, "The Phenomenon" is a must-see documentary for anyone interested in the topic of UFOs and extraterrestrial life. It presents a wealth of information in a clear and engaging manner, leaving viewers with a deeper understanding of the phenomenon and its potential implications for humanity. Whether you are a skeptic or a believer, this film will undoubtedly leave you with plenty to think about.

So boring and repetitive that I couldn't tolerate it after 30 minutes (or less).

Exceptional in Every way 👍

One of the best, if not THE best UFO documentary I've seen. You get a fresh perspective on all the stories we've heard over the years— from senior officials in the US government. This is the smoking gun. They know. They've always known. This is real, they know it's not our stuff and they're admitting it's 100 to 1,000 years more advanced. The US spends more on our military than the next 10 countries combined. If it's not ours, then where did it come from? If God created us and Jesus died for us, then where do the entities driving around these ships find salvation? Or is the joke on us?

Great addition to UFO community aducation :) First time (not belivers) introduction! HAVE TO WATCH IT!

One of the most compelling movies ever made on the subject. Absolutely undeniable.

Really loved this documentary! A lot of really great information I have not seen out.

Incredible. The best UFO documentary available.

Fun to watch. It presents somewhat believable testimonies about UFO's. The fact that Peter Coyote (known from numerous Ken Burns documentaries) lent his voice as narrator gives it a more credible feel. However the evidence is ultimately not really compelling and the film starts to smell of the typical quackery you often get with this subject near the end (e.g. humanoid-shaped aliens using telepathic communication to tell people to recycle and that technology is bad). Some things within the film seem really dubious, for example the scene where the French scientist and some PhD guy from Stanford are testing metal fragments supposedly from an alien ship. They suggest that the metals are completely unnatural and couldn't be from Earth. Okay, well if this is true then the entire scientific community should be all over this, and this should be revolutionizing physics and materials science in every major university. But...nothing like this is happening. So this seems bogus. The skeptic's argument has weight: Billions of people on Earth have smartphones with high quality cameras on them nearly 24/7. If this stuff is legit, shouldn't we have better evidence than a handful of potato-quality images and videos? Nonetheless, it's still an interesting topic, especially when you hear testimony from apparently sane and credentialed people from the air force and what not.
