Fighting the Sky

About This Movie

So, 'Fighting the Sky' is one of those indie sci-fi flicks that leans heavily into the atmospheric dread of the unknown. The premise is intriguing—strange sounds echo across the globe, drawing a team of researchers, led by Lorraine Gardner, into the heart of a mystery. The pacing is a bit uneven at times, which might throw some viewers off, but it really builds suspense as they dig deeper. The practical effects are commendable, especially considering the budget. There's a palpable sense of isolation and eeriness throughout, and the performances, while not overly dramatic, do manage to convey a genuine sense of intrigue and fear. It's not your typical alien invasion story, and that’s what gives it a distinctive edge.

Atmospheric and eerie sound design.Interesting take on alien phenomena.Good practical effects for the budget.
