Poor science

This documentary says it presents scientific evidence. The presenter eagerly thinks he is debunking with his great logic and scientific evidence. Although he makes some good points, his science is fashioned to support his opinion. He wraps every thing up with a nice bow. "There you have it", "that's all it was". He basically is saying everyone is being hoaxed, or fooled. He is saying everyone who thinks they saw a ufo is too stupid to have considered his explanations. There is no unbiased science in this video! It is totally skewed and every one interviewed is so confident, it's amazing. I feel like I'm watching Mr. Trump take facts and skew them to support his agenda, like he does. I only watched the whole video out of curiosity. If you are looking for any ufo science, don't watch this opinionated waste of time.

Scientism-Based Debunking

It's important to understand the Laws of Creation, but to be rooted in very left-brained thinking keeps you from seeing the bigger picture. Rigid skepticism is not the pathway to truth. Holistic thinking will get you there much faster, regardless of the subject. Using the Trivium and Quadrivium methods are holistic approaches. Science is about discovery and evolving perspectives, not dogmatic rigidity and limitation which is what scientism is and what this documentary is saturated in.Some of the assumptions about how ETs would behave if they came here are also pretty one-dimensional such as "landing on the white house lawn." Mr. Dunning, what makes you think an evolved species would want to have anything to do with us today? We're far from evolved. We're still children who believe we need a proxy mommy and daddy called "government." A Type 3 civilization capable of interstellar travel would probably keep their distance until we grew up and got over ourselves. We're not even a Type 1 yet.The only exception would be a species with ill intent, and they're probably already here. Trust me, "they" would have no problem with us seeing this movie. Same with all the overly right-brained speculative fluff. Neither one is a balanced perspective. Neither one will get you to the core of what's really going on.

Sobering skepticism mixed with a lot of assumptions

I identify as an open-minded and REASONABLE skeptic on the subject of UFOs/UAP. I've watched all of the James Fox documentaries, read many books on the subject, and have familiarized myself with the best cases. I find some of it compelling, but will not be convinced until I see better evidence. It's important to remain skeptical and not get caught up in confirmation bias.That being said, there are some ridiculous claims and assumptions being made by the director of this documentary. Early on, he hears from an astrophysicist that it's unlikely that extraterrestrial civilizations could travel the vast distance required to reach us. The director then adds voiceover saying "They can't get here!" How do you go from "unlikely" to "can't"? Another claim he makes is that photos, videos, and eyewitness testimony aren't compelling, and you need to hold something in your hand to believe it. That sort of thinking might lead someone to a belief as abhorrent as Holocaust denial, because we can't stand there and verify it with our own eyes. That is the sort of UNREASONABLE skepticism that this director is guilty of. (Note: I'm not saying he's a Holocaust denier. That's just an extreme example of where unreasonable skepticism can lead.)He does a good job of exploring problems with some well-known UFO cases. Although, I found it amusing that when an astrophysicist says "unlikely" he takes that to mean "can't", but when an Air Force base serviceman tells him that a power outage is "unlikely" to disable ICBM missiles, he goes on to conclude it "must" have been the cause.His treatment of the famous Navy UFO videos and their corresponding sightings is mixed. He interviews Mick West and shows his compelling take on them. He then goes on to make the case that the Navy pilots were mistaken in what they saw by interviewing an air traffic controller and a prop plane flight instructor. Seriously. Not a single Navy pilot or instructor is interviewed. You can't discount the dozens of witnesses to the Nimitz encounter without interviewing any of them or, at the very least, a seasoned Navy pilot. He doesn't even address why the Nimitz case is so compelling (dozens of witnesses, multiples radar systems and sensors, including the most sophisticated radar on the planet, and backed up by a video). He merely discounts the video as probably just a plane. That's a straw man if ever there was one.This is a lazy documentary that mixes some interesting insights-especially the Jimmy Carter UFO sighting-with a lot of assumptions and straw-manning. I welcome and encourage skepticism on this subject and hope that the truth about this phenomenon will be found one day. This director hasn't found it.
