I watched this a third time, and I wanted to make sure I put up a log/review just to do my tiny bit to proselytize for this wonderful movie. It’s streaming on Amazon Prime as of this writing, at least in the U.S., in its original Swedish with English subtitles. If you have…
Adam ForrestMay 12, 2025Wow. What a gem. A classic 80s movie made in the 2020s. And from Sweden, no less. It’s magic when a movie you expect nothing from turns out to be a total blast. A gang of lovable losers, led by a plucky teenager, chase UFOs and struggle against disbelieving authority…
Adam ForrestMay 8, 2025“I want to believe” Damn the AI dubbing. Damn it to hell! Give us the original Swedish language! There is such a disconnect between the actors and their characters words, not to mention really off putting CGI lip movements. Apart from that, the lady with the cigarette…

What a gem of a sci-fi adventure! I have become increasingly impressed with the Scandinavian Blockbusters we have been getting out of Norway and now Sweden. Channeling Spielberg, The X-File and Interstellar into a singular vision, Watch The Skies (Or UFO Sweden) is an…
Puck GipsonMay 7, 2025Don't feel comfortable rating this because I watched the AI dubbed version and found that to be awful and distracting. I might have an enjoyed a subtitled version of this Spielbergian UFO story that looked pretty good. Definitely could use a trim of about 15-20 minutes.…
Cesar ZamoraDec 10, 2023Denise (Inez Dahl Torhaug) is a juvenile delinquent who teams up with a bunch of UFO obsessed losers to solve the mystery of her father's disappearance when she was a child. Very well written story that had some well-earned emotional beats that propels the story forward…

Not completely sure if everything made sense in the end but it was a fun watch. Win 95 and Win NT 4.0, those were the days!
DonnieDarko666Nov 21, 2025This kept popping up on my Prime feed so decided to look up some reviews on it. The consensus was akin to Spielberg and that sense of wonder...alright, I'm sold. This is more of someone trying to be Spielberg, with an idea that is not all the way cooked - not necessarily…
HenryMay 9, 2025Watch the Skies is like a cross between Stranger Things and Close Encounters of the Third Kind. It’s a bit slow and I found the main character to be pretty unlikable. This movie is also the first film to be released in theaters that’s entirely dubbed with AI. I didn’t know…

Its the Interstellar B-Movie. Even the soundtrack sounds the same. Characters are flat and have no development, their reactions and interactions with each other are not believable. Cops are so stupid. Things happen n work just because they have to. Aesthetically well done however
Eddie Gustafsson likedWatch the SkiesTo be a Swedish Sci-fi movie it is crazy high quality/budget. Acting Will not win any oscars, but it still good enough. I could not have done it any better. Fun movie!

Wish it had a bit more humor in it.
MKMing KwongNot as interesting as I thought the film should be!!A little dull...
BWBilal WaleedThis movie was okay at best wasn’t expecting it too have a non-American cast but should’ve read the title more clearly as UFO Sweden is the code name it falls under but for an otherwise unmemorable movie it did have some action scenes and an otherwise cool cast of…

I recommend this movie to my friends & family !
SESidney EliepierreFunny that everyone in Sweden was speaking English
FNFrank NajeraGreat movie overall, the AI voice over did seem a bit strange in some parts but I still enjoyed it.

In many ways this fairly nondescript film is the perfect vehicle for potentially dystopian tech: it’s under the radar, inauspicious and not likely to find itself widely watched.

A kind of mash-up of “Interstellar” and “Stranger Things,” the extraterrestrial coming-of-age sci-fi flick “Watch the Skies” is a passably enjoyable story about loss.

It's a worthwhile, nostalgic UFO movie with plenty of interesting ideas that made it a strong, impressively passionate watch.
