When an overconfident teen alien gets behind the controls of a spaceship, he must attempt to abduct a slumbering farmer under the watchful eye of a critical instructor. But abducting humans requires precision and a gentle touch, and within a few missteps it's painfully clear why more humans don't go missing every year.

SparkMore n my opinion it was a great movie with some interesting elements, even though having some plot holes and the ending probably was just too messy and crammed together, but still fun to watch and not your casual movie that is similar to all other ones.
Twilightfa Watch something else. There are very few redeeming qualities to this film.
Doomtomylo a film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
Senteur As somebody who had not heard any of this before, it became a curious phenomenon to sit and watch a film and slowly have the realities begin to click into place.
rosechocoberry ***This review may contain spoilers*** This animation short film is unique because it is about aliens who practice how they kidnap humans. A newcomer alien tries to get a man out of house with a lot of handles in UFO, however, he is stressed by his boss's staring and he starts panicking. It is very different from other films with the concept about aliens try to take human away to their planet. I can sympathize with the young alien who is still learning how to use UFO, which is very relatable for me because we all can be like that when we are new to something, and not being good at them. It reminds me of training of part time job, because it sometimes can be gone wrong like this. The aliens are expressed very humanly. I have never seen aliens so likable and funny. I think this is a little bit related to Monster's Inc. which is one of the most famous works of Pixar. I like how they make scary creatures into loveable creatures. Also, I like the way they use the end credit to keep amusing audience. In this film, they use only the sounds to lead what happen at the ending during the end credits, which is very lovely idea.
aggelostenshimanga "Lifted" is a short about aliens trying to abduct someone but failing over and over due to the complicated ship controls. It started of funny, but the joke got old quickly for me, and I liked the 'cold' alien boss more than the goofy alien protagonist that i was supposed to like. The ending joke was also quite predictable. Great animation, as expected, that might make it worth the watch anyway, but in my opinion, one does not miss much by not watching this short.
youmumiller This is a story of two aliens. In many movies, aliens are expressed uncannily, or sometimes, they are enemies of humans. But in it, the aliens are expressed amusingly. One of them is a probationer and he is not good at lifting things. In the last scene, he crashes the UFO on the human boy's house. The other one is a teacher and is trained in controlling the UFO. There is a scene that he tries to encourage the probationer, so the contrast between two aliens is very interesting. This is only a five-minute movie, but the structure is clear and the story is well organized.
hmtr011 This is a story that two alirans try to kidnap a sleeping boy. these alians are discrived very cute. They are vey charming character. One alian is an instractor, the other is a bigginer to steer the spaceship. It is difficult for a bigginer alian to pass the boy's body through the window and fetch the boy to the boy to the spaceship by using a lot of control button. The alian throw the boy at wall or funiture many times because of his terrible control skill. It's surprise the boy doesn't wake up at such situation. I laughed at that scene. Also, I wonder why alians try to kidnap the boy and what they want to do by doing so. The end of this movie is very interesting. No one can imagine what happen at last. The movie has many funny and comedy elements.
