4 out of 5 stars Sci Fi Meets Human Nature   June 21, 2008
L. Clemens (Schaumburg, IL United States)
George Pal and Ray Harryhausen do it again. Good example of Human nature, although not as it would be in today's world. 50's style politeness and control make it a little unbelieveable, but still very good. Good wins, evil loses... etc. Enjoyable to watch, can be watched many times. Not so much special effects, more drama, but the Sci-Fi theme is always underlying. I liked it, but then I like all of the classic Sci-Fi Movies.



1 out of 5 stars Am I Missing Something?   June 7, 2008

Is there something I don't get. All those reviews rave about the greatness of this movie - ingore the fact that this movie is plain impossible. Wandering stars were getting noticed in 1950. No star is going to sneak up on the Earth. Also with all the jabbering about the effects of gravity, have we ignored the heat that even a small star would possess. Lastly, the final shot looks like it was painted by the director's oldest child. So - bad plot, bad effects, and bad acting. Is it any wonder this film turns me off?

I remembering watching this on TV once about 20 years ago when I was a pre-teen and thinking it was cool. I bought the DVD at Wal-Mart over a year ago, and I still think its a good movie.

This would be considered a Classic for SciFi. It is worlds away from what we view now.

I have watched this movie several times, and it does not get old. I put this movie up there with "2010", and "The Martian Chronicles". I recommend this DVD to anybody with a standard, or Upconverting DVD player.
