Fails WP:NOTFILM namely because independent, reliable sources have not written about this film. It's only subject to review by ufologist and conspiracy theorists who are both unreliable and essentially connected to the filmmaker, Steven M. Greer. jps (talk) 20:21, 5 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Weak keep or redirect to Steven_M._Greer. There is some coverage out there, but it's predominantly pre-release. I can't really find a lot out there that wouldn't be considered a fringe (ie unreliable source) website by Wikipedia's standards. There's enough pre coverage that this might be considered to pass, although I am worried that they don't really show a huge depth of coverage. I'd be a little more happy with a redirect to a subsection in Greer's article, as I merged some of the material from the film article and the "controversy" section into one section about the film. If we do decide to redirect, I'd argue for the history to be kept in case more coverage comes in the future. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   06:37, 6 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Changing to solid keep. I managed to find two RS reviews amidst the scores of non-usable reviews. It's not a huge amount of coverage, but it doesn't need to be and it's enough for it to pass notability guidelines. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡) 
 * Looks like finding those two reviews opened the floodgates- I now have an additional two reviews and a few more articles covering the film. Tokyogirl79 (｡◕‿◕｡)   06:52, 6 December 2013 (UTC)

 * Keep as a notable topic per 's findings. Nice work! Erik (talk &#124; contribs) 05:52, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
 * Keep - even a simple google search shows it's been covered in the trade press and other places.Mattnad (talk) 14:39, 7 December 2013 (UTC)
