this movie was fantastic. not only did it entertain the entirety of the film but it displayed a great message. the only problem i have with this, was that it was not long enough.

Interesting movie that speaks on the violence and destruction of mankind after the Second World War. I really liked the effects of the spaceship and the robot going around vaporizing weapons
