Destination Moon is good hocus-pocus stuff about interplanetary travel.

A landmark of science fiction cinema as well as the movie that jumpstarted George Pal’s career as a producer (and later director).

DESTINATION MOON (1950), the film that probably should have led off the Fifties science fiction cycle, actually is still an enjoyable adventure film even if parts are a little dated.

Jules Verne by way of Robert A. Heinlein, the staid harbinger of the Space Race
