A dutiful robot named Robby speaks 188 languages. An underground lair provides astonishing evidence of a populace a million years more advanced than Earthlings. There are many wonders on Altair-4, but none is greater or more deadly than the human mind. Forbidden Planet is the granddaddy of tomorrow, a pioneering work whose ideas and style would be reverse-engineered into many cinematic space voyages to come. Leslie Nielsen portrays the commander who brings his spacecruiser crew to the green-skied Altair-4 world that's home to Dr. Morbius (Walter Pidgeon), his daughter (Anne Francis), the remarkable Robby...and to a mysterious terror. Featuring sets of extraordinary scale and the first all- electronic musical soundscape in film history, Forbidden Planet is in a movie orbit all its own.

A must watch for any Sci-fi can out there. But even if your not a sci-fi fan this is still cinema at it best, 60 years on and the story line and acting are still superb.

This has to be one of the best Sci Fi films ever. Despite its vintage, it did not seem dated. It has a really good story line too. I would recommend this without reservation.

Great film when men and women didn't freak out over political correctness a must watch film for pure entertainment at it's best
