Stranger at the Pentagon

After watching it, I'm having a hard time understanding why the filmmakers didn't just go the full nine yards and make this into a 45 to 60 minute production. Charging $5 to rent a "short video" just raises the expectations far too high, in my opinion. Total waste of time at this length.

I first learned of Dr. Frank Stranges and his classic book "Stranger at the Pentagon" about two years ago. Soon after that my wife and I met Hollywood casting director Craig Campobasso and discovered that Craig was in the process of making the book into a short film. This past Saturday night we attended the international debut of Stranger at the Pentagon at the Burbank Film Festival and enjoyed every frame of this provocative story and film. The story was very well told by Craig and the actors he hand selected for the film. And most impressive were the very high end special effects that brought this 1950's era story into the 21st century. You could really feel the attention and love that was put into this film and the desire to let the world know about a very real visitor from outer space Valiant Thor and his desire to help us make Planet Earth a better place, which it seems even today's government is not quite ready for. For anyone who is into science fiction/fantasy/reality stories, Stranger at the Pentagon is a must see film now on DVD.

No matter how little it cost ($25,000), this is just plain awful. OK, you got the story out but wait, what story. There isn't even a proper ending. The credits took up 2/3rds of the full time. There simply isn't a story there. It would have been better to make a 10 minute documentary instead of trying to make a movie out what isn't really well, anything. This almost looks like a mockumantary. Deeply disappointed. Keep the $5 and buy a copy of "The hero's journey" to improve your skills. Plain horrible.

I cannot say enough how this film informed, in lighted and simple moved me. I would state any time anywhere this a most view.. Thank you Craig Campobasso and his crew for an great film. I cannot wait until the screen is light up and the world has the insight that is needed . I cannot thank you enough, you have given the information that is needed. One can take this and see what is right in front of us . You have constructed a real prospective and put it out there. It I time for all to know the truth. We all know that the director to have gotten this done is Craig Campobasso. This film is a must view at the next level will inform you even more so. Blessings

I have been aware of this story-line ( having read the book a long time ago) and needless to say I was thrilled when I found out it was going to be made into a movie. I watched the sneak preview with excitement and was in awe of the 'special effects' etc. Craig Campobasso is a genius for he captured the essence of the message that was given to mankind and via the exceptional actors he has gifted us with a stunning movie that will capture the hearts of many thus presenting a positive view of E.T. visitors NOT just the bleak and horrific presence of the Greys.. I am grateful for this gift offered us via Craig Campobasso and am very aware of the hard work and long hours invested in this glorious movie. I rate this a 10*
