At The Box Office: ‘Watch the Skies'
COLCHESTER, Vt. (ABC22/FOX44) – This week on 'At The Box Office', Julia Swift discussed 'Watch the Skies', a Swedish movie that follows a teen and a UFO club.
One of the strongest aspects of this film is that we follow club characters 'that we really grow to care about,' according to Swift. She describes the first half of this experience as 'charming'.
Swift also notes that the main actress is strong and has a good dynamic with the cast.
While the second half sort of 'falls apart', Swift says that this film still remains 'unabashedly sincere', which makes it worth seeing.
Behind the scenes, 'Watch the Skies' was made by a five-person collective, meaning there is not one single director. The movie also tried some new technology for dubbing, and attempted to use computer models to aid in matching lips with the actors' translated lines.
Those interested in checking out 'Watch the Skies' can see it at AMC theatres.
