Proyecto ovni

This is not as bad as the other review suggests. True, there is a bedroom scene and brief views of a woman's rear and breast, but they are very brief and integral to the plot.

It is not really science-fiction. The story is more about the competition among the media in covering a UFO story. It takes place in Poland during the Cold War, so politics are involved as well.

I found it amusing. Some characters are quite quirky, and the acting is good (I am assuming, since I do not speak Polish),

While I do not mind reading subtitles, parts of the plot were a bit confusing to me, thus the 7/10 rating.

If you do not go into the show expecting alien abductions and such, you might enjoy it.

Nicely filmed, avant-garde, Polish cinema even upon humoured project, they've managed to keep the standard and not dipping their toes into cheap picture.

Talents are nicely selected, scenography meticulously arranged.

Truth be told, great binge for Sunday chill.

Specific sub story, with the taste of true cinema, to create something humorous and entertaining, taking a Mickey out of communist party, Polish people fighting to be seen and heard. It's showing greatly oppressed society and yet holding their faith and keeping up with their dreams within the barbed wire of communism and Russian waiting at the border.

Show is very entertaining. If you're into period pieces it definitely is something different for us in the United States. The title is a bit misleading but not untrue. The show does revolve around chasing leads for a story about "Polands Roswell" but that's just the surface plot. There is way more going on. The set pieces, the music, and the atmosphere are really good. It is also not a "laugh out loud" comedy, although it does have a lot of dark and quirky humor. Don't listen to the braindead reviews for from people complaining about lack of aliens or comparing it to Stranger Things. I don't think they even watched the show. One admitted they didn't.

I learned about this show from tweet from Hideo Kojima(creator of death stranding and metal gear solid) where he praised it.

The story, acting, set design, cinematography and basically everything about this show is 10/10 and feels very fresh. I enjoyed absolutely every second of it.

I really wish marketing for it was handled better , because I would have missed one of my favorite shows, if i haven't opened twitter randomly that day.

Reading the negative comments here, after watching the show, they feel more hilarious, than infuriating. Its beyond me how you can completely miss the entire point of the show and be so confident. Its like Colin Robinson wrote them.

Like your Sci-Fi retro, with a light humour and quirky? You won't go far wrong with Projekt UFO on Netflix. Polish production, set during political upheaval in that country, a fading tv star and a UFO enthusiast haunted by his brother's disappearance, investigate Poland's Roswell. Beautifully shot and designed, with a great colour palette which somehow emphasises the bleakness of the times.

There's subtle nods to other shows and films about alien visitors, it even has it's own Smoking Man (with his own idiosyncrasy), but location and time it's set really make it original. I'm sure some will watch and want an English language remake, I thought myself that Simon Pegg and Nick Frost would cover the male lead roles, but a remake would be a mistake, missing out on the uniqueness of the Polish setting.

Great 80s style electronic synth soundtrack too.
