Seeing how everything unfolds in this documentary is so fascinating. I was immediately interested when storming Area 51 was playing out in real time on social media / the news because it was such a wild idea. I didn't really know what to expect going in to watching but it was fantastic. The documentary was really well done and informative as well as funny. I think everyone involved brought it together to make it great. I'll be recommending it to my friends and family, even the skeptics. This isn't the type of film you watch once and forget about. Watching it a couple times you notice things in the material and background you don't catch the first time. I hope Tom Delonge enjoys it as much as I did.

Plot summary
A wild and unexpected cast and crew come together before the viral Storming Area 51 event to film one of the most unique documentaries you have ever seen, modern day Cinema Verite. A life-long alien enthusiast, filmmaker and comedian, Brian Moreno, takes us on a journey into an ever growing subculture; the alien, UFO conspiracy community. We get to see this community but we also get a very interesting and heartwarming story about a cast and crew that have very mixed feelings about even being there. The trip begins in Los Angeles and finishes at the legendary Area 51 site in Rachel, NV. Nothing goes as planned, or does it? This is a ride that takes you into the land of Comedy, Interviews, Conspiracy, Aliens and so much more. Even if you know nothing about Aliens or Area 51 there is something in this film for you. It's a fast paced, wild film that will leave you pleasantly surprised and asking questions. This is a failure story, or maybe not.

Aliens exist
If you like both comedy and documentaries - this film is for you!!
Though I do find things like aliens and Area 51 interesting, I sometimes get bored with "documentaries" related to such. However, this one was really funny and entertaining the whole way through. I like the funny banter between the friend group and Ioved all the interviews of the other random people who were really into the E. T. stuff. I feel like even people who are skeptical of these kinds of things would still enjoy it because it was lighthearted, funny, and not too serious - or that's how I interpreted it. The editing was really good, too. It was funny hearing some personal details of the "characters" like how the main guy put his fiance on the back burner so he could pursue this exploration dream of his. Would have even liked to hear more of everyones background and what all lead them to this journey - even if it was all a joke anyway.
My kind of movie
The movie was hilarious. The whole storming of area 51 is super interesting to me and this was a great take on it. Bought it and will watch it again because they were a lot of funny one liners that I'm sure I missed and/or forgot. It was kinda weird that Harvey Weinstein was in the movie but that's ok :) He was awesome and I'm hoping I can catch one of his stand up shows. I believe this is Brian Moreno's first movie and I thought it was wonderfully put together.
Natasha Pearl Hansen and Andy Kozel are in the move. Both hilarious comics who are extremely funny in this movie. Can't believe somebody didn't grab Andy's bag at the airport??
