I'm very happy for actress Lisa Whelchel's return to the set-she's getting better and better. "Roswell Delirium" is overall very well shot, and the cast delivers convincing performances. The screenplay is of a high standard, as is the character development. Given the numerous awards it has already won, we hope the film will be distributed in a greater number of theaters. It would have been great if Whelchel's role had been bigger, given her talent and long professional history-from the series The Facts of Life to the great success she has achieved in recent years, mainly through television projects.
I was disappointed once again to be tricked into watching a movie I thought was a SciFi, but ended up being something entirely different. The synopsis states: "Following a nuclear attack, a girl receives a distress call from space that leads her on an extraterrestrial journey". Well, there is no call from space, no aliens, and no extraterrestrial journey. This is classic bait and switch, and it is not the first movie that plays the trick of calling itself a SciFi when it is not.
The movie disguises itself as a SciFi, but is actually a psychological drama. It takes an hour of movie watching to finally come to this realization, but by then you have been suckered into it.
There should be a law against passing a movie as a certain genre, when it is not.

I very seldom review movies on here, but this was actually so horrible that I had to warn others to pass it by and not waste their time watching it. I can see why it took years for this to come to light and then went straight to streaming when it finally did come out. The acting was horrible, the script and dialogue and the interaction between the actors looked forced and was horrible and the score was horrendous. The movie was set in an alternate 1980's, and it sure did a good job reminding me of a B movie that was actually filmed in the 80's, so they got that aspect correct. This movie should have stayed on the shelf. 1/10.
To be honest, I haven't seen such a plot mess in a movie for a long time. I'm not even sure that I understood everything correctly. But it was interesting to sort out this mess. In order not to spoil the intrigue for future viewers, I'll just say "everything is not as simple as it seems at first glance." Assessing the film, I will say that it is not bad. But quite controversial. The acting of some actors (mostly children) raises questions - they played even too well. And this exaggerated expression is confusing. The dramatic, serious plot echoes their antics and at first it is difficult to understand what I am watching at all. Especially when we have aliens in the context of America battered by nuclear strikes. (sounds too strange) However, closer to the second half of the film, it becomes much easier to watch. Finally, I would like to highlight the slight protractedness of the film. Not everyone will appreciate this moment, but for those who like to thoughtfully watch films, this example is suitable.
I'm shocked this movie was ever made! Sometimes a B movie has bad acting but a great storyline so you continue to watch it wishing the right person with the right amount of money and contacts has the chance to produce it.
This .. this has neither!
It's a D movie at best. No storyline, beyond horrible acting, a purely pathetic attempt at every point of making a movie.
I honestly think the only reason a couple of the known actors did this, was either a HUGE FAVOR to someone or they lost a bet.
We TORTURED ourselves to finish the movie so that I could leave an honest review of the movie and not the first ten minutes that already had me wanting to run!
