For five decades, American agencies have stockpiled information on UFOs. So did their counterparts behind the iron curtain. Soldiers, scientists and spies all paint a disturbing picture of the KGB's secret campaign. The UFO encounter that almost sparked a nuclear war. The pair of MiG fighters that tried to shoot down a UFO - both jets blown out of the sky! Stunning proof that the Soviets recovered something not from this earth! Amazing film footage smuggled out of Russia. This exclusive investigation into one of the most compelling events of our time is hosted by Roger Moore.

The thing I enjoyed most about the film is the fact that it doesn't shy away from being a super-sized-cliche;

The film's masterful storytelling did its job. The message was clear. No need to overdo.

It’s sentimental, ridiculously long and only occasionally funny

*** 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.

I didn't see anything so annoying for a long time. This ridiculously unconvincing documentary is an insult to good taste and sane logic. It's shame too see Mr. Moore in a role of insider/spy who reveals stupendous facts about sightings of UFO's across USSR. There is no single reasonable statement or believable document in whole hour-an-a-half-lasting agony. Many times I found laughable similarities with Criswell monologues from Ed Wood movies. Yes - it's that bad! (unfortunately, not of so-bad-it's-good category). Oh yeah, not to forget equally dreadful music. This movie attacks from all directions. Watch only if you're ready for mind-boggling pain-inducing experience. If there are aliens, I hope they never see this s**t.
