Out of the many variations of UFO documentaries that are available, 2009’s “I Know What I Saw” is a unique entry, focusing its efforts on international government officials revealing information they have on the subject, instead of the more typical scare-tactic filmmaking techniques that litter the genre. Although its approach allows it a distinct weight and severity, the movie nevertheless suffers from its flat visual presentation, as it’s difficult to make much visual suspense out of government officials speaking at conferences, and ultimately the movie becomes rather boring and repetitive.
Rating: ★★★ (out of 5)
