Let's get that out of the way so that people don't spend 1.5 hours thinking they will see something Sci-Fi in this move when in fact there is nothing.

There should be a law against mis-labeling movies like this. It's the third movie I've seen that claims to be a Sci-Fi, and I wind being disappointed.

Some dude spending his life in the Oregon woods looking at the night sky for signs of UFO's does not qualify as a Science Fiction movie. This is frustrating and needs to stop.

On other hand, it was a decent drama about a daughter reuniting with her estranged father, which is why I gave it 6/10.

Dear filmmakers, please, please stop mislabeling your movie genres.

IN A NUTSHELL: The story is about Maggie who tracks down her estranged and reclusive father. She discovers his world of UFO-hunting as she realizes the sobering effects of aging.

The gentle film was directed by Alex Lehmann with screenwriting help from Chris Dowling.

THINGS I LIKED: I've been a fan of Thomas Haden Church for decades, ever since I first saw him in the cute TV show Wings. I loved seeing him in this. He did an outstanding job. Some film critics have been saying this is his best performance ever.

I'm always happy to see Dianna Agron get work in movies. Probably like you, I had never seen her in anything until the popular TV show GLEE. She's lovely and also gives us a good performance as she stretches her acting chops and shows us what she can do.

Gorgeous cinematography.

It's fascinating to watch the interplay between the two characters and how they realize how much they're truly alike.

Parent/child relationships can be complicated and take a completely new turn as the parent ages, resulting in a role reversal where the child needs to take care of the parent. This movie illustrates that extremely well. I could definitely relate to the sadness of those changes while watching all of my parents lose their memories and physical abilities in recent years. As you know, I've had to say goodbye and bury 3 parents in the past 3 months. As expected, the movie's nuanced performances made me weep.

There are a few humorous moments, but nothing so funny that it makes you laugh out loud. Overall, it's a very reflective, slow, drama.

The song at the end was perfect.

THINGS I DIDN'T LIKE: Some viewers might complain that the pacing is too slow. That's part of the journey. It illustrates well how slow life meanders from childhood to adulthood, yet also how relationships evolve.

If you're expecting to see aliens, you'll be disappointed.

The title of the film is a bit misleading. It makes it sound like a superhero movie or something!

TIPS FOR PARENTS: Kids will be completely bored because the whole film is about two adults talking.

Profanity, including F-bombs Guns A dog gets shot. We see blood.

A man smokes marijuana and talks about a trip.

Portrayal of death.

Prior to fine rom-com "Meet Cute" Alex Lehmann directed the intimate, weighty yet sluggish dramas "Blue Jay", "Paddleton" & "Acidman". In the latter 20-something Dianna Agron (Alicia Vikander-esque) visits a remote, craggy, forested Oregon coast to try connecting with her estranged, reclusive & possibly mentally ill dad Thomas Haden Church (likeable as ever) who lives alone with his dog 'communicating' with UFOs. Plot-wise Lehmann & Chris Dowling's script is disappointingly thin, but as a dual character study it's rich enough (helped by the great two central performances (especially Agron)) - whether that's enough to entertain most tho is debatable.
