Watch The Skies (2022) aka UFO SWEDEN


A young rebelious teenager whose father went missing in the mountains, turns to her father's friends in a UFO group to try and find out what happen to him when his car ends up crashing through the roof of a barn.

Award winning science fiction adventure (under its original name UFO SWEDEN) has been kicking around for a couple of years now for no good reason. I say this because this is a small scale genuine film of the sort that Steven SPielberg got famous making. Its a lovely film about outsides who have an extraordinary adventure. It's a film grounded in its wonderful characters and close to reality nature.

The cast is first rate. The score is perfect (including several well know songs and pieces of music). The visual effects are not overdone and feel that they could be real.

How did this not end up getting a release previously? I don't know because this film is so much better than several recent similar films like LEGEND OF OCHI. Here everything makes sense and we end up buying it all from start to finish. I absolutely loved this and I recommended it to several friends as something they should see.

While the film is a bit long at just under two hours, the film still shines and make you wish for a sequel, not because anything is left unsaid, but because you want more time with these characters.
