Summary: The thinking-person's sci-fi film
In addition to immortalizing the statement, "Gort, Klaatu
barada nikto," this film is the grand-daddy of good
sci-fi. It treats it's subject with dignity and realism.
While the film has some good FX, it doesn't rely on the
visuals and noises. Instead it focuses on characters and
ideas. Klaatu is a nicely disguised Christ-figure in this
allegory which makes you think at the same time that it is
scaring you.
