This is your stock, English-style, late-50s, science-fiction movie. Nevertheless I find it interesting that it's the mature scientists who are the heroes of these movies.
I wasn't really sure what this movie was about before I watched it; Matt Damon vs John Slattery & men in suits was enough to get me hooked. The story unfolds into something much more dramatic and funny than that. I recommend this one for sure!
This movie starts out confusing. It's supposed to feel that way. Captain Colter Stevens can surely attest to that. But as the plot rolls along everything gets explained in greater and greater detail. It's a gripping story with an ending that will probably leave your mind boggled.
