Editorial Review:

DescriptionH.G. Wells' fantastic account of life on the moon is vividly brought to the screen by special effects master Ray Harryhausen in this amazing sci-fi epic featuring unforgettable extra-terrestrial creatures. The film begins with a team of United Nations astronauts planning an upcoming moon mission. The astronauts are both confused and intrigued by a man (Judd) who claims he, his fiancee and a scientist journeyed to the moon 65 years ago and were attacked by 'Selenites,' grotesque, human-like ant forms that live in immense crystal caverns. Now it is up to the U.N. team to attempt a lunar landing that could be more horrifying than ever believed possible.

Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great DVD!
This has been one of my favorite movies for many years. Now I can watch it any time!



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - A True Classic
A very entertaining classic Sci-Fi family movie. Fun to watch, great story.

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Destination Moon Review
Movie is "just ok"; not what I remembered. Price and service were great. I'd buy from them again.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Delightfully cheesy

It looks pretty dated, with crouched-over guys in bug suits, a cheerfully dotty amateur scientist, and the obligatory saveable babe. Oh, and that little moon-ship had eating facilities, but not a lot for dealing with the inhabitants' other needs of nature.

We don't see them until way past the half-way point, but Harryhausen's wonderful stop-animation makes this memorable. That includes a dancing skeleton, a whale-sized caterpillar, and a few other goodies. The ending shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who's seen War of the Worlds - I haven't read the book in decades, though, so I can't say how closely this tracks Wells's original.

No matter, it's a popcorn movie. Wait for a rainy Saturday and run the flicks - the popcorn will taste just as good either way.

Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - 40 year old, ready to watch some old movies from my childhood

I saw this movie when I was 7 years old.

I just recently got on a kick to watch some of my old favorite Sci-Fi films.

This movie is great, because it has all the charm of the 50's and 60's sci-fi films, but unlike most....this one has a story worthy of HG Wells or Disney. So you get the best of both worlds.

When you add Ray Harryhousing's stop motion special effects...you have this movie hitting every element of what good classic Sci-Fi should be!
