Most undeservingly overhyped movie of all time??
... View MoreI was totally surprised at how great this film.You could feel your paranoia rise as the film went on and as you gradually learned the details of the real situation.
... View Morea film so unique, intoxicating and bizarre that it not only demands another viewing, but is also forgivable as a satirical comedy where the jokes eventually take the back seat.
... View MoreThe storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.
... View MoreIt's a good time if you don't take it too seriously.
... View MoreSince I don't speak Arabic, and the film wasn't subtitled, you'll have to excuse me if I may have missed some of the subtler points about "Journey to the Moon". Nonetheless, I believe I've caught the gist of the thing. It's basically a remake of "Cat Women of the Moon" featuring entirely too much of the antics of famous comedian Ismail Yassin. This guy makes Jerry Lewis (when he was teamed with Dean Martin) look positively dignified, although it gives you some idea of how exponentially more annoying Lewis would have been if he'd delivered his lines in Arabic. And if his entire shtick were to consist of doing something idiotic and then blubbering interminably about it. It took only about ten minutes before I wanted to see this man-child offed, preferably painfully.Otherwise, the film is standard stuff: Astronauts go to the Moon, where they find a bevy of stunning young women who -- judging from their costumes -- while away the lonely hours playing tennis. (All their men seem to have been killed or horribly maimed in some silly old war.) The romantic lead falls in love with one of the moon-ladies, there's some complications and a robot, and then everyone goes back to the Earth.Of some slight interest, if your hobby is obscure sci-fi flicks.
