I've been wanting to see this for a long time, now with the occasion of the recent remake I thought it was time. It was a very good sci-fi considering the year it's made and it had a very strong message to give. I haven't seen the remake and it looks bad but I'm sure Keanu is not bad as Klaatu with his expressionless face.

And I hope they used this same dialog as it's very up to date:

Klaatu: I'm impatient with stupidity. My people have learned to live without it.

Mr. Harley: I'm afraid my people haven't. I'm very sorry... I wish it were otherwise.

Well, Our people still haven't learned to live without stupidity!

So, the world still stands still.
