Rated 5 out of 5 stars 01/29/25 Full Review Chris M The story is good but not great. There are some character issues and for 1968, the effects could have been way worse. Could have been better too. But overall, it is interesting and fun. Plus it never gets boring. Rated 4 out of 5 stars 04/10/23 Full Review sean s You have to consider that this movie was made in 1968, before you start tearing down the special effects and historical accuracy or it. I would not be surprised if Ridley Scott borrowed some of it for his movie Legend (1985). The Japanese apparitions in it are great considering the limitations of budget and the special effects of the time. The humor is also great in it. This is one of three movies that were made in a set. All are worth watching. I was glad to find this hidden gem as my years wind down and surprises are more rare as each year passes. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 03/31/23 Full Review Read all reviews
