A review by Geronimo1967

This film is quite curious - much of the dialogue appears to be dubbed but only some from Italian, the rest from English. Makes me wonder which market this sci-fi yarn was ever intended for. It also looks pretty colourised, though claims to be in Technicolor - which it certainly isn't. That's about all, sadly, that is of interest in this rather dreary tale of a journalist aboard a spacecraft who has a distinct personality clash with the commander. To make matters worse, another craft with the potential to destroy all living things on Earth has entered the Solar System and our disgruntled rocketeers have to try and disable it. Lots of slow panning shots and smouldering close ups, ropey effects and a mechanical sounding soundtrack (almost bell tolling) fail to get this going. It's just dull.
