Verdict on Alien Intervention
Alien Intervention is a sci-fi drama following a woman who spent her life trying to make a life in the desert resort. She was once visited by an alien who promised to return and now he has returned in search for what he left her.
This is a story about faith and wanting to believe something to move you forward in life. It manages to show that life can be unexpected and it is what you want to expect that drives you forward. The closest movie I can think of to this is ‘K-Pax’ where the interaction between a human and potential alien comes together. While this dives more into what could be real or not. It could easily have been drawn to a line of an unstable person. This perfectly plays into the idea of what could be out there to believe.
Final Thoughts – Alien Intervention is a moving drama about understand your place in life.
