Reviews
Jack Sommersby wrote on EFILMCRITIC.COM that James Spader would play "wonderful" in the film.
“Nicely photographed science fiction production in television format that uses the Roswell myth as a hook to tell an alien story that is reminiscent of the B-Pictures of the 1950s. Borrowings from the Christian Nyby classic ' The Thing from Another World ' (1951) cannot be overlooked. "
“The TV film copies ' Alien ' [...], ' Das Ding aus Another World ' and ' Contact ', but not clumsily. Conclusion: Everything was just stolen, but very exciting. "
