Top Secret UFO Projects: Declassified

I was hoping for this to be as captivating as Unacknowledged or the Phenomenon. It wasn't. The stories were highly unbelievable nor critically examined. I mean seriously? An UFO with a call sign consisting of an Arabic numerals and Latin alphabaticals. Give me a break.

I'm familiar with the details of many of these cases and the designers and CGI artists have pretty much ignored witness descriptions of craft and their actions and taken too much artistic license. They've done a Star Wars job on the look of everything, and added in alien closeups when most of the time the witnesses didn't see what they looked like.

The Reverend Gill section for example. The Reverend and co saw 'figures' from a distance, not cloaked blond Caucasian dudes like it the so-called reenactment. Disappointing, especially when they had the money to get things right.

Think Ancient Aliens with a bigger budget. Insulting to the viewers intelligence, poorly edited and a big ole pile of BS.

People will complain about the animations and cgi added.

Don't judge this documantation by it's visuals but listen to the idea it gives us. This is more of a message to us people that we need to care about our planet. This should be our number one priority- not the system that our modern age civilization has created where the only things that matter are power, profit and keeping the wonders of the universe away from common people.

In my opinion a well rounded series of a fascinating topic that will change our near future (hopefully for the better).

I was excited to see two upcoming UFO documentaries arriving in August 2021, one on Showtime notably produced by J. J. Abrams and then "Top Secret UFO Projects..." on Netflix. With all the recent revelations on the topic of UFOs I felt a fresh new Netflix documentary would delve into the latest evidence and offer some new insight as well as a better production value than the options that are mostly available these days. Well I desperately sat through all 6 episodes of this once anticipated show filled with utter disappointment and at times astonishment. While the show features some credible talking heads on the subject like Nick Pope, George Knapp and Richard Dolan they interlace their brief statements with crude CGI re-enactments straight out of an early 90s after hours sci-fi show along with vague conjecture from more relatively unknown talking heads and then occasionally throw in totally unbelievable stories told by utter charlatans like Emery Smith that basically discredit anything of substance already covered. The topics are all over the place and are either a rehashing of the recent pentagon leaks, are old stories heard many times over or follow completely insane fantasy stories by proven conmen. By the last episode I concluded this documentary show to be a total waste of time. Sadly being desperate for anything new on the subject I watched the entire thing. I found it funny they frequently showed clips of an interview with Jeremy Corbell but dedicated nearly an entire episode to Emery Smith, whom Corbell said in a 2018 tweet to be a total fraud. And he is, his stories are so outlandish it's astonishing any production would give him the time of day. Not sure what went wrong here, or who raided the mushroom stash but I will be holding out for the Showtime series backed by J. J. Abrams.
