Maybe Aliens

About This Movie

So, 'Maybe Aliens' is this intriguing little drama from 2017 that really leans into the emotional turmoil of its characters. You’ve got these two brothers, both grappling with the loss of their parents, and the way they search for answers in the vastness of the sky is quite somber yet oddly poetic. The pacing feels deliberate, allowing the weight of their grief to settle in, and it's punctuated by some surprisingly effective practical effects that add a layer of authenticity to their quest for solace. Performances are pretty solid, especially in the moments where they just connect or clash amidst their despair. It’s a film that kind of lingers with you, leaving you reflecting on familial bonds and the search for meaning — even if that search feels otherworldly at times.
