Do I like this movie or not? Here is a special effects movie full of futurist sets, futuristic cars, futurist security and of course space ships. The story talks about a planet found on the far side of the sun in the same orbit as Earth.
So of course we get to sit through a lot of meetings and international politics and other boring stuff that would make George Lucas proud.
Then all that futuristic technology is mostly stuff that wouldn't be out of place in the 1960s, with endless tape reel computers and flashing lights. No objection to the fact that the girls only wear mini-skirts.
So anyway, they go to the far side of the sun and come back, but something is wrong, and so we get the actual plot.
It is great to know that in every era there were movies with pointless high budget special effects that had no impact on the story.
