Review of Destination Moon (1950) by Oscar H — 21 Sep 2008
A lot of people seem to feel that "the special effects may have been good at the time, but look dated today." Well, duh!
It's just nice to see a film which deals seriously with the subject of space travel - there are so few out there, I could probably count them on the fingers of one hand.
Maybe they weren't spot on with a couple of aspects, but I've never been to the moon myself, so it's hard to be certain.
It's nice to see that, when an opportunity comes up for one of the crew to sacrifice himself, they all fall over themselves in wanting to be the one to die. Surely all four of them couldn't have been that self-effacing?
