Great idea for a story--really like where it goes with the secret. Lots of pretty great imagery. But good gracious, the acting is painful and the speechifying out of hand.

Damn this movie has some nice sets. And it knows it. And it really likes to show them off, lingering lovingly while people talk and talk. Also, another bunch of deeply unprofessional military men, this time with a side-order of "It would have served you good if you had been raped, the way you dress and flirt with my men!" aimed at a twenty-year old woman with zero experience with men. Ah, the 50s. Good times!

After World War II, as science and astronomy briefly shone bright (less than 20 years after this movie, we'd have landed on the moon), Forbidden Planet took a morality tale and moved it to the skies. Yes, the acting is a bit wooden, the characters talk far too much, and the special effects don't look all that special today. But they worked with what they had, and the movie rightly takes its place in the list of great sci-fi flicks (as a bonus, you get Leslie Nielsen acting serious!).

Beautifully filmed and designed, with great effects, color, and sets. It also features Leslie Nielsen in his dramatic prime; he gives a great performance even when his character comes up lacking (often thanks to the dated gender politics). The script has some interesting things to say, even when it devolves into that peculiar brand of pseudo-Freudian psychobabble particular to '50s cinema. Anne Francis doesn't get much to do, contrary to what the opening number of Rocky Horror might claim.

All pretty cool stuff, but the movie is mostly people talking. I'll appreciate this more as a concept, or a blueprint for something than a worthy film.
