Area 51: The Alien Interview (1997)

Lack of good storyline.

Brilliant and touching

The movie's not perfect, but it sticks the landing of its message. It was engaging - thrilling at times - and I personally thought it was a great time.

While it is a pity that the story wasn't told with more visual finesse, this is trivial compared to our real-world problems. It takes a good movie to put that into perspective.

This video is definitely entertaining. I enjoyed watching it and the video of the interview is somewhat convincing the alien, to me, looks real.But, I believe that the entire thing is a huge fake. Not the just the video itself, but everything. Rocket Pictures is (was) a real company, but that's the only real part. The whole story is fake. It isn't like someone faked the video and then this Victor guy is acting like he worked at Area 51 and trying to fool Rocket pictures. My theory is that "Victor" doesn't exist. He is an actor. His answers to the questions aren't consistent. And if you watch the version that has the second interview with Victor, he is an entirely different person- meaning the way he acts is entirely different (obviously you don't know if it is or isn't because his identity is concealed). He is much more opinionated and discloses all sorts of information that really doesn't have anything to do with the original interview with the Alien. It all just seemed very theatrical to me. Also the supposed owner of Rocket pictures is not a good actor. He is clearly lying about Victor. He won't hold eye contact with the camera for longer than a fraction of a second. And the story about when Victor first approached him over the phone about the tape he thought it was his brother playing a prank on him just seems a little cheesy and fabricated. The video of the interview itself is pretty neat. Ill admit it had me going for a while, but there are holes there too. Why so dark? Because the alien is sensitive to light but then the "doctors" fix the supposed seizure by shining a light in his eyes and wiping his mouth? And I'm not a video expert but it seems to me that you could change the voices on the tape like they did with victors instead of just deleting them. All in all its pretty entertaining, if nothing else, watch it to decide for yourself. I would love for a real alien video to someday make it out, so I'm not a "skeptic" per say. This isn't it though.

This is the worst attempt at an alien interview I have ever seen... The creature looks totally fake even in the poor lighting conditions it's filmed in. "Victor" answers no questions relevant to the authenticity of the tape or the filming, he even attempts to cover up the pitiful attempt of the "medics" tending to the creature. The movements of the creature indicate a hand puppet or a head-mounted mask. The medics have no idea what they are doing - Victor goes on to say they are selected for their ability to keep secrets rather than their expertise - Well you would hope that's the case cos these guys clearly have absolutely no expertise and tend to the creature in the manner of a butcher in an abertoire. As a creature sensitive to light I'm sure it would not appreciate having bright lights shining directly into it's eyeballs. Altogether this production is very cheap and disappointing..

The company Rocket Pictures DOES exist, they just don't do the production of videos for TV or home video very much at all, if ever anymore..They were on a History Channel Modern Marvels episode showing off transportation gadgets and they own a jet pack that propels people into the air just like the ones you see on TV and in movies..(pretty nice jet pack I might add) but YES, the company exists, just might not be on the web..believe it or not, quite a few local and national companies don't use the web even nowadays.. just too impersonal for them or just too much BS to set up and change their current and established ways..Toodles! (PS I believe, but I don't think they would be as "Intelligent" as they've been made out to be..just different "Intelligence" compared to our "Intelligence"...)so if they are real which I think they are somehow, somewhere..maybe they think of us the same way we think of them..could be a freaking' confusing day if they're made public..NO FLAMERS NOW!

This is a fake. Why would any interview or interrogation be conducted in darkness? I have never seen medics manhandle a patient the way these guys handle the "ALIEN." They just run and and wave their flashlights around. They don't seem to examine him at all. Also, the "ALIEN's" head doesn't move with any fluidity, like most animals. It seems to jerk unnaturally and move stiffly like a puppet. This is obviously a hoax to try and make money off of a large group of people who want to believe in something fantastic. Don't waste your money. You can see just the video on YouTube. ooh ooh IOU OR ooh ooh coo ooh ooh OR OR IOU IOU ooh Ohio
