Reviews
Colibel Terrible acting, screenplay and direction.
Rijndri Load of rubbish!!
Connianatu How wonderful it is to see this fine actress carry a film and carry it so beautifully.
Jayden-Lee Thomson One of the film's great tricks is that, for a time, you think it will go down a rabbit hole of unrealistic glorification.
Michael Ervin The queen of outer space was certainly a man-hater. The captain of the crashed earth ship tries to give her the Captain Kirk/James Bond treatment, but fails when he takes off her mask. A victim of radiation burns, giving her the worst 'butter-face' ever! "Men did this to me...Men and their wars!" Unfortunately, the queen is revolting, and quite mad. This was always a fun movie for me to watch. It was released the year I was born, and I saw it many times over the years. So silly, but fun anyway. I always enjoy the beginning with the ship caught in a tractor beam from Venus! The same beam that destroys earth's space station pulls the earth ship 26 million miles in a matter of minutes, at least minutes of screen time. As the actors point out, they were unconscious for the trip, and have no way of knowing how long it took, or how fast they went.It is goofy, but I still give it 6 out of 10. Especially for the good- looking Venusian women. Definitely could only have been made in the fifties.
Hitchcoc I have puzzled over something for much of my life: What exactly is it that makes Zsa Zsa Gabor famous? At least sister Eva had a fun time on Green Acres. I guess it's because she married rich men. This movie, in my opinion, is the best of her career--and that ain't saying much. There is trouble in outer space with a group of women dominating a planet and tricking men into coming to the planet. How they didn't die off long ago is a mystery. Why they are all basically the same age is also interesting. Anyway, there's a monkey wrench in the machinery that pushes the envelope. Don't stop me. I'm on a role of clichés. Anyway, some men go to the planet and cause trouble and forces must stop them. Watching the elder Gabor try to act is quite hilarious. Unfortunately, this is not a parody, because parody requires intelligence and careful planning. Just awful!
decktop Dear Captain Patterson:Most people who saw you in the Queen of Outer Space think you're a big hero for defeating Queen Yllana. I don't think so.In the scene where Queen Yllana comes on to you, instead of doing your duty and attending to her needs, you decided her face wasn't good enough for you. You had an opportunity to win the Queen over, to work through her understandable dislike of men, and to save the Earth without conflict. You could have established amicable diplomatic relations with the Queen. All you had to do was to put her killer body through its paces and benignly neglect her facial problems.What was your problem? I mean if you are gay that's cool, but then when the Queen indicated she needed to be loved, like everyone does, why didn't you arrange for one of your crewmen, perhaps Lt. Turner to handle the assignment? If I had been aboard, I would have volunteered for some intimate one-on-one time with the Queen. I would have shown the Queen a good time and not demeaned her highness with your childish and pathetic "Oh no your face is too icky for me" routine. After a session of lovemaking, the Queen and I would have had some cuddling time, when we could have resolved the interplanetary problems and had a philosophical discussion about handicaps, about how everyone has them, and about how life is all about adjusting to them. We would have talked about how awful it is that in the movies characters with handicaps and disfigurements are routinely killed off, regarded as inconveniences that don't have a lasting place in the world once their value as a plot device has been exhausted. The Queen and I would have discussed how we could change those harmful attitudes and build a more inclusive and accepting society. After that, the Queen and I would have had another go at it, further soothing her and fostering interplanetary goodwill.What you did instead was to take sides with Zsa-Zsa Gabor's rebel insurgency. You deposed the Queen, caused her demise, and put Zsa-Zsa in charge. In her ascendant position at this pivotal time in America, Zsa-Zsa went on to pioneer the cult of talentless celebrities who are famous for being famous. Without Zsa-Zsa, we wouldn't have the endless parade of people like Paris Hilton and the Kardashians impoverishing our culture. Zsa-Zsa further used her position of authority to put her sister on TV in a show that defined new lows in popular culture and we are still reeling from its pernicious influences.When the Queen beckoned to you, a brighter future beckoned to us all. You let her down and made her cry. You let us all down.Sincerely,A Concerned Citizen
LeonLouisRicci Unintentional Humor and Unwrapped Females Highlight this Excruciating Extravaganza of Extraterrestrial Excrement. Venus is inhabited by incredibly Busty Babes in Miniskirts whose Culture has been Influenced by Max Factor and Mattel. Swell, but They are as Dumb as Dirt but Smarter than the Astronauts who arrive there. "They just get beautiful-er and beautiful-er ".It's all done in Gorgeously Saturated Color and CinemaScope that makes the Mind fall into somewhat of a Hypnotic Hyper-Dimension as it all Washes over Us in an unmitigated Attempt to Lull the Populace into some kind of 50's Fraternal-ism. We are to Accept this as Entertainment and Fun as We all just get along and Accept the most Plastic, Artificial View of Our Surroundings. So Don't Think too much and for Heaven's Sake don't Question the Lack of Creativity or Inspiration that's on Display...just Go Home and Enjoy all of those Kitsch Consumer Products, and that Eight-Cylinder, Tail-Finned, Abominable Gas Guzzler.This is Not Pop-Culture Parody...this was the Pop-Culture.
