Yar, you be here: Roswell > Customer Reviews Roswell Customer Reviews (1 - 3 of 8 Reviews)This Should Not To Be Confused with T.V. Show ROSWELL!
This Film Has Nothing to Do with The Popular Cult Teenage Science Fiction Television Series Drama of The Same Name At All What So Ever!!! This Was A Big Budget 1994 Made For Cable Television Movie. And This is a very very Serious Fact-Based Docudrama About The Legendary 1947 U.F.O. crash and The Supposedly True Account of an Actual Real Crashed Alien Space-Ship. This Movie Star's Kyle MacLachlan Martin Sheen Dwight Yoakam Xander Berkeley Kim Greist And Charles Martin Smith. Also This Movie Was Directed By Jeremy Paul Kagan. To See Many Different Opinions of This Movie Read The Reviews Below. Thank You For Reading This Review. Uninformative, A Film That Could Have Been Made Better.
"Roswell: The UFO Cover-up" is the type of film that could have been made better, could have been made to be more interesting. It's as if, the writers just thought of slapping together a UFO Conspiracy flick instead of an investigative piece. Some scenes aren't interesting as well as the characters. Never for a second, would I be convinced by this film that a UFO crashed in Roswell and that the government covered up the facts. The rest of the movie is also boring, I almost fell asleep watching it! If there was controversy surrounding this movie, I don't know why. It's not threatening to any conspiracy (look, before I wrote this, there were only 3 reviews). Also, I think a documentary version of this movie would have worked better. It's just to ridiculous to believe any of this in this form. There's also too much dramatic license, stuff you know never really happened. The film also lacks a visual style, it looks too plain. It doesn't matter if this is a "true story," it's still a movie. I bet Oliver Stone could make a much better film about this subject and come out with a masterpiece. Other than that, "Roswell: The UFO Cover-Up" seems too much like a badly written, badly-made, uninteresting film that is pure science fiction. THEY'RE OUT THERE
The Roswell story has been an interesting piece of "urban legend" for some time now. Did our government conspire to cover up the supposed crash landing of an alien spaceship? We'll never really know the truth, I'm sure. ROSWELL is an intriguing movie, although it lacks any real suspense and since we know how it ends, one is left with what is basically a character study of Jesse, the soldier who was humiliated and promoted in order to keep his mouth shut. Kyle MacLachlan, one of our most underrated actors, gives a solid, sturdy performance, even though his makeup conjures up images of Brad Dourif. Martin Sheen's enigmatic character makes an appearance at the end of the film, but we never know who he is. Dwight Yoakam does well as the farmer who first discovers the wreckage. However, only MacLachlan's character is developed fully enough to care about. A clean, clinical and provocative movie; just not a great one.
