Not a bad science fiction film, could have been better
I can see where some people say the FTL ending and Freddie The Bomb were influenced by 2001: A Space Odyssey. Nevertheless, the film had some good points to it. Charlton Heston did a remarkable job, as did Jack Palance, British actress Annabelle Scholfield, and some of the other actors. The character played by Tim Matheson could have been played by someone else though. Nevertheless, the Japanese filmmakers of this picture did a good job. Even the special effects and musical score by Maurice Jarre was good, too. Overall, not a bad picture. It could have been better.
