The Sighting Audience Reviews

Hellen I like the storyline of this show,it attract me so much
Wordiezett So much average
Odelecol Pretty good movie overall. First half was nothing special but it got better as it went along.
Mathilde the Guild Although I seem to have had higher expectations than I thought, the movie is super entertaining.
Dark_Lord_Mark Not going to lie, I enjoyed this.I actually liked the concept of 2 guys getting lost, and stumble upon something grave, and dangerous that is hidden.It is handled VERY well imo. Nothing too terrible. It isn't a SCARY horror. It made me care about the main character(s) a lot, which was well done. There wasn't any real jump scares but the concepts were well done well .Sure their is SOME bad acting, but it is a well made small budget movie that is never boring. Solid 8 1/2 out of 10 from me.
kolasomania well i thought this movie was excellent.and it was until some point the movie starts with a man recording a party. OK i passed that strange think and went on the following 1 hour the movie was excellent, not to creepy but also not to peaceful.there was action and creativity.i can tell i was something like excited because after much time i had found a movie which is worth seeing.and then the ending came...the last 15 minutes destroyed Literally all the movie.the movie ended with the boy dying full of desperation because after all the things he lived loosing 2 of his best friends. also the ending shows the policewoman going in the cave and the movie ending.at this point i think that everyone understood that the policewoman was caught buy the Sasquatch and obviously got killed.so in what does this ending lead to.the policeman and Travis father keep thinking that Travis is crazy and that he is the murderer and the policewoman dies into that deep cave unable to tell the policeman that the boy tells the truth and that the Sasquatch are real.also if the woman is dead the policeman will be unable to find the dead Sasquatch so again he will believe a story kinda "Travis killed the policeman and then he committed suicide".so the ending will be with the boy and the policewoman dead with Travis being a murderer in the eyes of this fool policeman.personally if i was the writer i would give an ending like "the boy does not commit suicide.the policewoman finds the Sasquatch and immediately takes him into the police station.the policemen identify his DNA so the boy is innocent and happy again.after that the police could go to the cave with many men and kill or put these things to cages so Canada finds his peace again.anyway this was a nice movie but the ending destroyed her.if it was happy ending i would give this movie 10 stars for sure
jfgibson73 The Sighting is about Bigfoot attacks in the Montana woods. In this story, there is a tribe of Bigfoots rather than one. Two guys are trying to cross the border at night when they first see them. Some exposition is piped in and the attacks continue for several more scenes. The main character survives and the police suspect that he faked the attacks and killed the other people he was with. It seems like it's heading towards one of those endings where everything we were seeing was the delusions of the murderer, killing without realizing it. However, they give an open-ended finish in which the main character sets up a camera and waits by the woods. The idea is that he's so distraught that people don't believe him that he's willing to die to prove the creatures are real. That's actually a more clever ending than anyone would expect from everything that came before. It seemed like everything would be complete clichés and reused tropes. They actually go so far as to throw in a visual homage to the Psycho shower scene, replicating some the quick-cut shots. As far as the acting, I didn't think it was bad so much as strange. People spoke with such unusual timing and cadence that something just felt off. Overall, I would say this is one to skip. Not goofy enough to be enjoyed for its ineptitude, and no clear shots of the creatures, who look like dudes with strips of fur hanging off of them.
socrdoc999 Have you ever been lost in the Montana Woods? I have and it's no fun. Panic and fear is just below the surface of rational thought. Throw in a Sasquatch and a history of mental illness and you have a story of sheer terror. Great characters, excellent acting, artistic filming in the wilderness of the woods and the psyche. The truth in this story is not so important as the setting and the possibilities of the truth. The consequences of getting lost in a place where no one can see you, find you, or help you is Nate's problem. Whether the monsters decapitated him or Travis pummeled him to death doesn't really matter because the setting makes all things possible. That is what this movie is all about. If you get lost in the Montana woods you will experience fear, panic, and a paranoia that you are not alone. And no one will ever hear you cry out in pain.
