schmoogoo Character development was great! I loved the ideas for the plot. Amazing story behind it all. I really enjoyed the show. It would be great for young children! I really liked the characters, they portrayed a behavior such that not too much fear is present. He idea of adding a scientific meaning to the story makes it much better.

gmg-76162 Very good story, especially for the imagination of the children !, a good pilot to be produce, either for a series or for a movie, very good photography, good direction, excellent performance of each of its protagonists. I greatly desire that the initiative to produce such stories for children be more frequent.For all the Staff, great job!

Horst in Translation ([email protected]) "Skyward" is an American English-language short film that premiered recently and here we have one of the newest wave of pilot episodes from Amazon that may or may not be turned into a series. The director here is pretty prolific and so are the writers, even if one of them in acting. The cast does not really include any big names, but that really isn't a surprise as this one here is much more about the stories than about individual performances. We have a bunch of kids here who basically acting like mini Ghostbusters with the exception that they are chasing aliens. Add an ounce of Goonies and Scooby Doo and you have a good idea of what this is about. Sadly all the ingredients you take here never result in a successful meal as I did not find it an inspiring or interesting watch. And when they actually do find an alien, things hit rock-bottom. Anyway, there are other core issues, namely the kids being uninteresting for the most part, sometimes even annoying and with many of their dialogues I must say that this is stuff that felt unauthentic and certainly not coming out of a child's mouth, even if you obviously cannot blame the young actors for that. If the quality stays steady on the level we got here in case the show gets picked up, I cannot see any longevity and I don't think I would wanna watch it. This first episode gets a thumbs-down from me. Way to go for everybody involved.

dncorp I'll admit I almost did not watch this "Pilot" Skyward 2017 Episode 1.1. from Amazon, because labelled "Children" TV Series.Got drawn into this during the opening scenes of their First Sighting, then the "Five Years Later" of having their own Radio Station, and Pod Casts.I was really amused by the Bio Mechanical "Spider" Reconnaissance "Drone". Considering I watched many (Too Many) Documentaries about what our (Earth's) Space Programs should do first, as currently the Exploration Satellites with Extremely High Resolution High Definition Video Cameras and Sensors, and Planetary Mechanical "Rovers" like on the Planet Mars.This type of Children's TV Series will seem to interest Children into "Conspiracy Theories", "Alien Abductions", however, by doing so will also interest some Children in Science, Space Flight, S.E.T.I. (Search for Extra Terrestrial Intelligence) as a good influence.Please do not inject into future Episodes Politically Correct Nonsense.
