Review of Destination Moon (1950) by Praveen P — 25 Apr 2010

Worth seeing just for the 'special effects' Oscar that it won in 1950- brilliant! They attempted the storyline (landing on the moon, almost 20years before it actually happened) in a very scientific and realistic way, rather than trying to fictionalise the whole thing.

The downer was the slow pace and lack of dialogue- that was mainly cos they were trying to show you the fancy effects, but by today's standards they would need to increase the pace.
