What good things can I say about this movie? Well, it's better than "Uchu Kaisoku-sen", so it's got that going for it. The dubbed voices are good (particularly that Japanese statesman who's made to sound like Sugar Bear in those old cereal commercials). But what really makes this movie, what really crystallizes this rambling narrative film to where we can say "Yeah, that's it!", is Krankor. Krankor gives this movie a calm and stately nobility most Japanese monster movies could never hope to achieve.
Now you might think that Krankor looks like Burgess Meredith doing his Penguin laugh in a San Diego Chicken costume. But the fact is, this movie was made years before the "Batman" TV show premiered. :
