studioAT At this moment this film stands as Ant and Dec's only foray into films and at times you can see why.Fair play to the pair though, they could easily see out their careers on prime time telly, but they wanted to test themselves.To be honest, it's not even that bad a film. It has a certain charm to it, and the leads have charm and humour by the bucket load.The problem is that they're let down by a rather weak plot and lots of dubious moments, making for an unconvincing and at times dated looking film.Cannon and Ball and Morecambe and Wise both struggled to make it on the silver screen. I hope if Ant and Dec try again they have better luck.

Jacob Jones For most of you that don't know what this film is about, it is about the events of a somewhat Alien spacecraft crashing into Roswell in 1947, in that year there was also an Alien Autopsy, the Alien Autopsy was then filmed by a cameraman that worked for the US Military, he was called out to an airbase that he had never heared of, to film this autopsy, soon after he filmed the autopsy, he took home the film and a week later the US military was suppose to have picked it up, but no-one ever came for it.Soon after this, Ray Santilli and Gary Shoefield went out to America to buy Elvis merchandise, whilst out there, the cameraman sold the Alien Autopsy film to Santilli and that he was a foreigner, he would have never heared of it again, soon after he had raised enough money to buy this film, Santilli brought it back home to London to show it to his family and friends.As he then soon realises, the film had eaten itself, the film is no longer viewable except some parts being regained by Shoefield's auntie which works in a film studio. She then asks for Jeffery, whom works in a film lab, to recover the lost footage, he then says: "Don't hold your breath" as in, don't get your hopes up, the regaining of some of the footage in this film is nearly non existent.Santilli then has to remake this Alien Autopsy in Shoefield's sisters house, which she is in Ibiza for a week, but Shoefield's sister comes home early and she then collapses after seeing the fake Alien being.Overall, this is a pretty good film, really good comedy, and the direction is not to shabby, this film is mainly a British comedy, and some of the Americans don't know about it, and for some chaps that the Americans may have not heared of before (Ant and Dec) they were really good actors in it.Recommended to watch if your a Sci-fi buff, Comedy buff, and a Drama buff, all in one.

Dom Jerams I was impressed by the ease of Ant and Dec when they were able to step in to the roles. Both added extra comments in scenes of conversation that you don't see (or hear) in major films today which make it seem like realistic conversations.Before watching this film I saw a documentary with Eamonn Holmes about the story of the real hoax and you were able to see that the writers of the film had to make the film more interesting because it would have been extremely boring. The Hungarian gangster was added because Ray and Gary had to collect money over a few years after the USA visit. Also if you think about it, the fake cameramen who did the interview could be the real cameraman and the Harry Dean Stanton character could be based on a fake.I can't believe that this movie is so underrated because it is both a British feel good comedy and leaves you thinking at the end whether the footage is another hoax or real proof of alien life. The people who have added negative comment on this film are being fickle because they are philistines who prefer Hollywood films and can't watch a film with no special effects or actors who have been in other big films.

stevet-12 Whilst this film has a slightly shaky start and took a while to find its pace, it is full of fun. There are plenty of plot twists, with a real belter at the end! The use of original US TV documentary footage within the film adds a nice authenticity, as does the US TV director interviewing Ant and Dec's characters throughout the film. The 'film within a film' structure worked well for me.The film shows the difficulties that the characters played by Ant and Dec faced - interpersonal, technical, and dealing with the world's media and more than the occasional nut case in the 'real world' - from which they were trying to show another world's refugee. The filming of the artifice itself is very funny, but was a little too sitcom to sit well with the rest of the movie for me.Viewers with a passing interest in the Roswell incident should love this - or by the same token maybe hate it.
