Review of 20 Million Miles to Earth (1957) by Nathan N — 13 Feb 2010
20 Million Miles to Earth (1957) -- [6.0] -- An army rocket returning from Venus crash lands in the Mediterranean, releasing a Venusian creature that wreaks havoc in Italy. This matinee monster movie is better than most of its kind.
The first thirty minutes are surprisingly strong, building mystery and suspense very nicely. After that, the movie becomes a bit of a "King Kong" knock off. Effects master Ray Harryhausen once again succeeds in creating empathy for his stop-motion animated creature.
