The destruction scenes are well staged. The designs for the Martian spaceships is unique;almost like a devilish manta ray. But other effects like the obvious matte paintings look terrible. Gene Barry and Anne Robinson aren't too bad I suppose. But few of the human characters stick out as memorable.

Not as interesting as the H.G. Wells novel, but it manages to get the point across.

Classic Sci-Fi effort. Despite its decided age with dated effects, this is still one of the better early efforts. It's not at all cheesy and actually has a decent story. A must for any fan of 50s sci-fi.

Despite the mediocre acting and B-movie effects, this movie still was lacking something. I only reccomend this for the hard-core sci-fi movie fan.

A decent sci fi pic with out dated special effects and bad acting. The concept is great and the execution is ok. It could have been better but 50's fans will appreciate it. Good?
