Horror Movies Customer ReviewsA bad movie but a great piece of hard science fiction - Theo - Australia
The truth is I really hate to give this movie a mediocre rating. Why is there so much I truly admire it.

Perhaps the best place to start is assigned the Moon, the producer George Pal, released five years earlier. Destination Moon is a hard piece of pure fiction. Is not a film with a lot of interest in human relations or emotions, and not pretend otherwise. And he took it for what it is, the Moon is superb. Built in 1940 andpublished in 1950, seven years before the Sputnik launch, however, is space travel in a serious and realistic - and something that could really be achieved in the short term. For 1950, this was an incredible triumph of imagination and intuition. And blessed with the talent of renowned space artist Chesley Bonestell, Destination Moon was at times truly awe inspiring to watch. The background is breathtaking lunar landscape today.

Five years later, and two moreyears before the launch of Sputnik, Pal released this film: the conquest of space. And almost everything I just said about the moon could also be applied to conquer space. Judged purely as a piece of hard science fiction, space conquest is a masterpiece. I have to say that special effects are even more impressive than those found in destination moon.

But the conquest of space trying to be more than that. Try to tell a story of real psychologicaldepth. It deals with how human beings can meet the needs and hardships of long-term space travel. This is clearly influenced by the problem of what was then called "battle fatigue" (today we would call post-traumatic stress disorder), which was then so familiar from World War II and the Korean War.

And 'trying to tell this story more psychologically complex than the space race gets into trouble. To be brutally honest, the talent of actors and scriptwritersare simply not up to the task. Workman-like performance (and in this pre Sigourney Weaver were all men) who were quite adequate, even if the Destination Moon just did not deliver the goods in the space race. That is why, as I regret to say, when judged as a film, the space race falls.

However ... Even given all this, as I said earlier, I still find much to admire in this work. It certainly does not deserve the darknesslanguishes today. For all its faults, I would recommend without hesitation the conquest of space for every fan of hard science fiction series.




Horror Movies Customer Reviewsdecent sci-fi tale for 1955 (3.5/5) - falcon - canada
for a science fiction film released in 1955, this is quite good.the
the effects are above average.the acting is good, the story is good, as is
the dialogue.all of these elements are much better than later
released Lost in Space TV show, I'm reminded of.there 's
also a message that the viewer is pounded with a sledge
hammer.there instances are a couple of stereotypical characters
behave in a stereotypical way, but these moments are kepta
minimum, with thankfully.certainly in space and gender, there is broad
Hammy opportunity and dialogue and acting up but there is
bit 'of that.what get is a funny and sobering 81 minutes
story that makes you think.for me, conquest of space is 3.5 / 5





Horror Movies Customer Reviewsclassic 50's sci-fi at it's best - Alaska Slim - Diamond City, AR United States
The DVD arrived before the due date in NEW or like new condition. The Flim, at the time and a ten year old boy, was the most realistic movie ever made in space exploration. Even better then "Destination Moon" at the moment. In retrospect they are related, but since this came out the second production values are just a hair better. George Pal still does.
