I enjoyed the movie overall, and I agree that it kept me interested throughout. At the same time, I felt that some parts distracted a little from the main idea and made the story feel less focused than it could have been.

I was also expecting the technology side of the story to have a bigger impact. It was an interesting element, but I felt it got a little lost among everything else happening.

I completely agree with you about the last few minutes. For me, they changed the feeling of the movie a bit. After building up that mystery and tension, the ending felt more like a small E.T. style moment from Spielberg rather than staying with the atmosphere the movie had created before.

Still, I enjoyed the experience and it was definitely a movie that gave me things to think about afterwards.

As someone interested in the UAP / UFO / Non-Human / Semi-Human / Alien / et cetera phenomenon, I was very disappointed in Disclosure Day, and so was my brother GC.

But at least a few people like yourself enjoyed it, so that is good.

His TV show Taken was better, except it got worse and further away from the usual lore as it went on.

His TV show Taken was better, except it got worse and further away from the usual lore as it went on.

I also felt that Disclosure Day promised more than it ultimately delivered.

The themes it introduced — abductions, government conspiracies, and advanced technology — were very intriguing, but I felt they weren’t explored as deeply as I expected. Perhaps a series format would have allowed more time to develop some of those ideas, especially the non-human entities and the technology behind them.

My impression was that the film was designed for each viewer to fill in the gaps and build their own interpretation. In my case, I saw the main characters almost as an “Adam and Eve” concept, genetically engineered for a new stage in human evolution.

The only part that slightly broke the atmosphere for me was the final few minutes, that Spielberg-style E.T. moment. I agree with @Jonny Quest that those minutes could have been left out; after all the tension and mystery the movie had built up, I felt the ending shifted the overall tone a little.

I’ll have to rewatch Taken, since I don’t remember all the details anymore, and that way I can better appreciate the comparison you mentioned.

Still, I enjoyed the experience overall.

What Is It?​

The YouTube video Oneiric | AI Sci-Fi Short Film | Higgsfield Originals (2026) by the YouTube channel Higgsfield AI.

Which is of the allegedly 100% open source and AI (artificial intelligence) made movie Oneiric:

My Thoughts​

The thumbnail for this video is unfortunate, and a poor choice.

There are much better thumbnails they could have come up with that would better represent this short film.

And make more people want to watch it.

But the short film itself is better than two big budget movies that I saw in movie theaters this year.

It is scary and amazing how much AI (artificial intelligence) has improved in less than 3 years.

For it to be able to create a short film this good already, with prompting from a human of course.

It is also amazing that this is open source.
