Thing is, the four members of the club - ex-RAF man and teamleader Percival (Derek Frood), serial alien abductee Gorran (Steven Powell), wheelchair-bound David (Paul Henshall) who thinks himself a genius bigger than Stephen Hawking, and Raun "Starman" (Jason Gregg) - are anything but specialists in their field and have little method to what they're doing, so their excursions usually leave them empty-handed, their theories are usually ill-founded, plus they lack the shred of an evidence for the existence of UFOs. <p> <p>Given its subject matter, <b>Ufologists</b> is pretty much as unspectacular as they come - and that's exactly what makes the film so hilarious, it's just fun to see these guys trying and basically failing. What makes this a good film though rather than just a series of jokes is that its story has a lot of heart, and even though the four leads are all slight idiots, they're also very relatable, likeable even, thanks to an intelligent script and also a strong small ensemble cast. And the sum of all of this is just great entertainment.<p> <p>... and if this has gotten you at all interested, you might want to watch <b>Ufologists</b> right here: <a href="https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7emEi4lklM8" target="_blank"><b>https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7emEi4lklM8</b></a><p>  </td> <td width="4" rowspan="2"></td> <td width="100" rowspan="2" background="../stylepix/squareright.gif" valign="top">  </td> </tr> <tr> <td width="592" valign="top">  <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> currentyear = "2024"; </SCRIPT> <SCRIPT language="JavaScript" src="../scripts/endcredits.js"></SCRIPT> <SCRIPT LANGUAGE="JavaScript"> dosworsdonn(); </SCRIPT> </td> </tr> </table> </div> </body>
