This probably looks about as stodgy now as it did back then.
TV Guide's Movie Guide
If the naive dramatic situations and trite idealism can be ignored, the viewer is in for an amazing spectacle of special effects.

Top honors for this inter-planetary fantasy rest with the cameramen and special effects technicians rather than with performances of the non-name cast.

Never mind plot logic, don't think too hard about the 'sci' component of the sci-fi, and certainly keep the unsubtle sociology and Pal's typical Bible-based gloss in perspective. When Worlds Collide remains entertaining and satisfying....
Mr. Pal barely gets us out there, but this time he doesn't bring us back.

Top CriticGeorge Pal's production is better remembered for its apocalyptic special effects than for the perfunctory dialogue, but the gripping story keeps you watching.

Dated but enjoyable end of the world flick

When Worlds Collide is sincere, but doesn't take itself too seriously.
