The good points about this DVD include the fact that it provides a tidy overview of some of Zecharia Sitchin's theories about the origins of man on earth. The premise explored here is that there is a tenth planet in the solar system whose orbit is so huge that it comes into the rest of the solar system only once in a very great while. Sitchin bases this on ancient Sumerian tablets that clearly show the other nine planets accurately (which is in itself quite extraordinary) in addition to this tenth planet.
The Sumerians tell the tale of how the earth was originally formed due to an interplanetary collision millions of years ago. The earth's moon, Sitchin says, was actually the moon of the other planet and was captured when the collision occurred.
Sitchin further claims that beings on the tenth planet were responsible for the creation of the human race on earth, via genetics. We were originally bred as workers who would mine the planet for precious metals that were needed on the home planet. Mars has been a base for these other beings as they have travelled to the earth, although it is not their original home. There are indications of monuments on Mars that are very similar to the ancient monuments on earth, including the pyramids in Egypt. There is some evidence that these bases might still be active. Why, for instance, did the Russian Mars probe Phobos 2 suddenly become disabled and stop sending pictures back -- right after it detected an unknown object approaching it?
The production includes interviews with Russian and American scientists as well as Sitchin himself.

Zecharian Sitchin reigns supreme among historians. This DVD is a competent introduction to his epoch-making work.

While modern academics are letting us believe they are the first to learn this or that, Sitchin has proven conclusively that much of what we tell ourselves we discovered, was known millennia ago by the ancients. Sitchin's books explain all this carefully and patiently, with no aura of UFO hysteria, just plain scholarship, though written in the popular style of putting the footnotes in with the text. His first several books have ample multilingual bibliographies; and many of these books he discusses in his texts. After awhile he stopped putting the bibliographies in every book.

In ancient Babylon, every New Year's Day, the Babylonia prayer called Enumma Elish, that the beginning of Genesis was cribbed from (no, God didn't write the Bible; a priest stole it from a Babylonian), gave the account of the creation of Earth from a cosmic collision between one of the moons of a giant planet seen only every 3600 years, and the planet which then occupied the orbit in which the Asteroid Belt now exists. The resulting planet, Earth, took its present orbit as a result of this event.

Our modern scientists now confirm that the Earth is one billion years younger than the rest of the solar system - the Babylonian account explains why. Sitchin tells the story of this fact, and many others, in an unendingly fascinating story across over a dozen volumes.

This DVD has footage of Robert S. Harrington, of the U.S. Naval Observatory, in an interview on August 30, 1990, expressing what is essentially his agreement with Sitchin's recounting of the Babylonian version of the creation of Pluto.

Me being an avid ufo buff and reading others comments, which convinced me to purchased the DVD I was disappointed with the film . It seems to be a little misleading in the effect that I thought there would be more time spent covering ancient text and ruins, instead of poor video production of the cosmos. The beginning of the film made it really hard to stay focused in hopes of waiting for something really good to be reviled. Out of an hour long DVD only 15minutes of interesting information really intrigued me and this is coming from a fan of Zecharia Sitchin. I wish he had a better since of presenting information when it comes to putting it in video form., i'm glad that i purchased it used.

When making a documentary, and asking people to pay for it, one has a certain obligation to potential customers. There need not be an entertainment quotient; but there most certainly should be quality control. The things missing from this documentary are clarity, continuity and conciseness. The viewer should be able to sit down and watch it without any prior knowledge of its content and still come away with at least a minimal understanding of what's being presented. Fortunately, I had done some research on Zecharia Sitchin prior to watching "Are We Alone In The Universe"; otherwise, I'm afraid I would have written him off as something of a crack-pot.

There does seem to be considerable controversy, however, as to Sitchin's competence as well as his expertise. In a separate DVD focusing on Sitchin's work - "The Gods From Planet X" - Jason Martell refers to him as one of the most accomplished linguists in the world - and one of the few who can translate virtually every piece of Sumarian writing - in fact, you learn almost more about Sitchin in Martell's documentary than in "Are We Alone In The Universe." His critics, on the other hand (per Wikipedia), dismiss his translations as incomplete and misleading. His field of academic specialty was economic history; he was not a trained linguist. As far as I can tell, he was mostly self-trained as a Sumarian linguist; this in itself doesn't disqualify him as an expert in the field. But since so many trained linguists have criticized him for having incorrectly deciphered the texts, I have to dismiss Martell's depiction of him as one of the world's foremost linguists as somewhat fanciful.
