Solemplex To me, this movie is perfection.

BelSports This is a coming of age storyline that you've seen in one form or another for decades. It takes a truly unique voice to make yet another one worth watching.

Janae Milner Easily the biggest piece of Right wing non sense propaganda I ever saw.

Sabah Hensley This is a dark and sometimes deeply uncomfortable drama

He is knocked back by a force field, and is transported to the beach scene. After the beach scene, he is transported back to Joao, who brings him inside the force field. That is when Joao's speech begins. *Joao: You came here seeking answers. I'm giving you those answers.William: Was that a dream?Joao: It was a vision of a possible future.William: Why were they scared?Joao: Because people will become so cruel, they will hunt children ... as if they were stray dogs.William: Why? Joao: No water ... or food. The devastation caused by mankind will substantially reduce the population. There will be complete disorder. Children will be enslaved to maintain productivity. It will be survival of the fittest.William: No, no, I don't think it will ever get to that point; humans won't ... won't become that desperate and insensitive.Joao: You are already too insensitive. Thousands of children die every day, from hunger or lack of shelter. Mankind is heading towards a global collapse, and we have to intervene.William: And why my son? Joao: Your son is one among many. This city is one of many.William: You're invading ... it's an invasion, that's what it is. You're taking people and you're studying them to make sure our species are compatible ... you're using my Peter as a guinea pig. Joao: Peter has rejuvenated in recent years. He is ready; waiting for his time to return.William: What the hell does that mean? Joao: People who were preselected are being prepared. They are receiving information and important knowledge. The process would be faster ... if so many pregnancies were not interrupted.William: So what's their mission? Joao: Reversing the direction in which mankind is heading.William: And how are these people supposed to do that? Joao: They will lead the world, with a new vision ... new ideas, and even new technologies ... that will change how your societies and its leaders interact with each other. This means that the world will have a large number of people ... with an extraordinary intellectual capacity ... spreading and practicing kindness ... charity and honesty. But they will be the world's last hope. Imagine a world with thousands of people like Gandhi, Chico Xavier, Nelson Mandela, Mother Theresa, Martin Luther King. To change the world does not take much ... only willpower.William: Well, if you don't believe in this, then why are you trying to help us? Joao: This planet's natural resources are vital to maintain the harmony of the universe.* William hears a noise behind him, and turns to see a vision of his son at the park, on the day he was abducted. *William: What is this? * William sees his son on the swing and sees him being "abducted" by a bright light *William: Oh! This is cruel. Why would you do this to me?Joao: You are here for a reason. Coincidences do not exist. They will return to lead the people, and change their future for the better. Someone must be there ... to help them reach their potential. Peter will need your guidance when he returns.William: Where? Joao: 8 degrees, 29 minutes, 4 seconds North ... 13 degrees, 14 minutes, 3.8 seconds West.William: Coordinates.Joao: Memorize them.William: 8 degrees, 29 minutes, 4 seconds North ... 13 degrees, 14 minutes, 3.8 seconds West.Joao: Be there in 2011.William: 2011.Joao: It's when you start your mission.William: Ah ... that's too long to wait.Joao: Time is only a matter of perception.* Joao then touches William on the chest, imparting the "birthmark". Joao then disappears in a flash of light. *CREDITS: Original Translation and subtitles: pepe2982 English Translation: nastero using Google Translate and Gedit.

Enrique Sanchez It's hard to say why I liked this story so much. The Isaiah Washington's understated but natural performance really stood out for me. Perhaps some elements in editing this story fall short of the Hollywood quick-fix treatment, but they made this the kind of movie that draws you in without throwing everything at you point-blank so you won't miss it.I am very gratified that the ending was not slick, however, the music cues, I think, were a little cheesy and rather made this too sensational for such a poignant ending. I know the music tried to make the point of that being a climactic ending, somehow, it is probably the only thing that missed the mark for me in this beautiful effort.I congratulate everyone involved in putting this story out, especially with so much crap being spewed out by filmmakers these days.I recommend this to any fan of science fiction who appreciates the out of the ordinary development of a story, and an abduction story that might have been produced by Hollywood types that like to give us slick and vapid movies in the guise of entertainment-in-a-bottle.

Individual One I really enjoyed this film. OK the production was a little low budget and the supporting cast could have been a little more polished, however the main stars more than made up for this with solid performances. When I say this is "A Sci-Fi story, not a Sci-Fi epic", I mean that this movie doesn't have or need a million dollar effects budget as this is a simple story about our planet, hope and better tomorrows. The effects were well done, and did not distract me from the main narrative as badly done effects can do. The movie is for those whom don't mind their Sci-Fi with a little subtle "X-Files" orientation for sure. In the beginning our hero is the non believer digging around in search of his missing child. Then as strange things ensue as he reaches what he sees as the unbelievable, undeniable truth (the truth is out there). The mystery unfolds and this happy tale develops into the ending you hoped for.This is a Saturday afternoon TV Sci-Fi movie for everyone, whether you be hardened, old skool, Sci-Fi lover or you're just the girlfriend/boyfriend, watching along for the ride as there is nothing else on. I enjoyed the 90 mins and so did my girlfriend.5.6/10 from me

DrTeeth007 I love science fiction, and as such can watch some otherwise bad films. This film has a reasonable story that could in general, have been made better.It shoots itself in the foot by having a LONG dialogue close to the end that looks like it explains all, the trouble is that it is 95% Portuguese and 5% English and does not have subtitles for English speakers. I therefore missed the point of the whole plot and am staggered at the stupidity of this in an English language film. Because of this I would not advise watching this film on TV or at a friend's house for free - you will kick yourself for the pointless waste of an hour or two of your life.
