If you're into UFO encounters and all that kind of wacky stuff, check out the movie "Extraordinary: The Stan Romanek Story." It's meant to cause you to reappraise perceptions of our place in the universe, and that there is life really out there. It doesn't work, but its worth a squiz for a laugh. It's about 90 minutes long, so you can knock it off pretty easily when you're sick, bored or hungover.
Mr Romanek is just an average guy from somewhere unremarkable in middle America. For the last 20 years or so he has consistently seen and been visited by aliens in a number of weird and wonderful ways. He's recorded most of them on video or audio in order to demonstrate that it's all true. The two peek-a-boo alien videos he relies on as evidence are pretty funny.

I was a fan of the first season, so put my mates into it and they all rave about it, but I haven't picked it up again yet .. Was a bit slow, but saved by Ben Mendelson

I think this seasons even better than the first one so far.

Can't wait to get into it
Watched over half of the first Ep last night... really good... How funny is it when Buddy is talking to the camera and he said he really wants to go nuts at them, but said it's alright... Tried to stay calm.. his face was hilarious.
Over half way through season 2 of last chance u. Really good. Just waiting for the coach to lose it, and get the sack... Not sure that will happen but I am predicting

I started that but lost interest after the first 10-15 mins when I concluded he was a bit of a crack-pot/attention seeker who loves to create fake UFO & Alien sightings. I wasn't sure if the documentary makers were trying to make me believe it was all true or to highlight how absurd this guy's stories all were. Maybe if I watched the whole thing I would find out.

Yeah, it's certainly not Pulitzer Prize winning stuff, but it's worth persevering with it just to see the extent of stuff he's done/experienced. Either he's a crackpot like you (and I) say, or you believe he's 100% true, which I think the filmmakers would want us to believe too. I didn't get the impression it was a mockumentary or expose of someone who they thought was so whacko that a film should be made.

I don't wanna spoil anything for you, so I can't say much.
Let's just say, as the season progresses, his pledge to do push ups gets forgotten, and all his talk about being a changed man doesn't fit what is actually happening.

I have zero doubt he will lose it... when he actually act normal he seems like a decent bloke, but that happens rarely. He thinks yelling will get his point across. Nope!
Also the counsellor looks like she's had enough, seems more agitated than the last season.

You know when they interview his hot daughter to tell us how gentle he is, he's gonna flip the f**k out within the next 20 mins

Wouldn't wish it on anyone, but I am truly baffled how he hasn't had a heart attack or stroke.
