Review of Forbidden Planet (1956) by Chris W — 04 Oct 2007
Decades ahead of its time, the SFX still hold up well even today. Loosely based on Shakespeare's The Tempest, this was made when Sci-Fi was still wondrous and mysterious. The early electronic score is moody and atmospheric. Robby the Robot is an iconic character and Anne Francis looks awesome in this film. Leslie Nielsen gives an excellent performance as he always does.
It's a true Classic! Don't miss it!
