It was OK. I don't see why everyone loves it so much. It wasn't very smart or deep or well-directed.

At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

It’s fine. It's literally the definition of a fine movie. You’ve seen it before, you know every beat and outcome before the characters even do. Only question is how much escapism you’re looking for.

It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

*** This review may contain spoilers ***I loved this documentary, and there are others about what the Russians were up to in the fields of science and parapsychology and regarding the UFO subject.Interesting propositions, but in the beginning of the video is an error, so how much can we believe of the rest?? "55 seconds into part one, Roger Moore opens with: "Hello I'm Roger Moore. In 1961 Soviet Cosmonaut Andrei Andropov lifted off in a Soyuz space capsule and spent 45 minutes in orbit" For starters there has never been a Soviet cosmonaut called "Andrei Andropov".12 April 1961 Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin became the first man in space and completed a single orbit of the Earth in 1hr 48min inside a capsule called Vostok 1.6 August 1961 another Russian cosmonaut, Gherman Titov flew in orbit for a period of 1day 1hr 18min in a capsule called Vostok 2.These were the only 2 manned Soviet space flights in 1961, and they both featured the Vostok capsule. Soyuz would not fly for another 6 years..The first flight of a Soyuz capsule was on 23 April 1967, and ended 1day 2hr 48min later in a tragic crash landing that killed the pilot Vladimir Mikhaylovich Komarov.If the very first words of narration in an allegedly "factual" documentary are so very WRONG, it does not bode well for the content that follows."

1969 film of a crashed saucer supposedly investigated by the Soviet Army is the main attraction here. Unfortunately it plays like the Russian version of "Alien Autopsy". All the declassified Soviet Union U.F.O. data more or less mirrors the United States. Promoting the rantings of fringe believers and offering little in the way of believable facts. Although redundant and too lengthy for the limited material presented, even if the featured crash and autopsy film is nothing but a hoax, "The Secret K.G.B. U.F.O. Files" is entertaining. Although the movie offers way more questions than answers, it should still be of interest to those who believe in extra-terrestials. - MERK

I was expecting to be amused but this was full of jokes of all types throughout. Unfortunately that does not mean this was an interesting video. It was the equivalent of turning a 30" McDonalds commercial into an hour-long video history of hamburgers. It's not simply repetitious; everything is repeated a dozen times. It was like being back in elementary school. Except you don't even actually learn five minutes' worth of knowledge. You hear a ton of questions without their being answered. You're treated to scads of meaningless statements such as, "Experts universally agree that, if an actual craft from outer space crashed on earth, it would deserve close study." They aren't even trying to scam us but just bore us. Poor Roger Moore.

Well, It's definitely much more thrilling than the "JFK Assassination Files", also hosted by Roger Moore (The Saint, James Bond). I must admit that I have decided to watch this pseudo-documentary only because I'm a great fan of Roger Moore. Unfortunately he doesn't play in many movies these days, so that was the only possibility to see him. The video is quite engaging but doesn't provide new information, maybe except a new point of view (the KGB point of view). Its disadvantage is that it's too long, it should be much shorter in order to be more fascinating - you can get bored from time to time. For Moore and UFO fans only.
