The aliens look cool, but the film is pretty sluggish.

horrible. There is a reason why mystery science theater picked this movie to watch and criticize. I think it gets a couple bonus points because I got to watch it with them and their comments.

It's definitely a bad movie, I won't argue that, but it I don't think it's bad enough to deserve a MST3k treatment. My viewpoint is probably skewed though since other than this, all I've seen is Manos and Teenagers from Outerspace. Now those were some shitty films.

The story and the effects are really what turn you off to the film. You don't feel that deeply for anyone.

The film itself is pretty bad; dudes with foreheads and bad acting. MST3K makes this a masterpiece though, making it extremely hilarious

When you can make the world's funniest movie just by commenting how bad THIS one is (watch: Mystery Science Theatre 3000: The Movie) - then it IS really bad. Large foreheads and mint-green airplanes? We have come far in special effects, it seems.

Some amazing visuals in this film, both for it's time and ours. The storyline is pretty dull though and the characters do little for me. Some pretty ridiculous make up as well, it has to be said. Enjoyable enough though, if not as exciting as it wants to be.

The only thing that made this movie interesting was the foreheads. Still, it is saved by the MSTers in MST3k the movie.

Look for The Professor from GILLIGAN'S ISLAND in this colorful, somewhat silly Sf adventure that has some big ideas but is too staid and stiff to ever come alive. A guilty pleasure.

The MST3K crew can get stuffed, for this is actually a good '50s sf-adventure movie. I miss the days of heroic scientists

Obviously it was the MST3K version of this I watched. By itself it would be a good tonic for sleep.

Mildly diverting, but fairly silly offering. The MST3K version is worth seeing.

Bad, but not nearly as bad as MST3K made it out to be (in a 50's-kitsch-sci-fi kind of way, viewable on its own).
