Title: Dated Encounter still rewards
Review: Bamboo Saucer is from that bizzare period of history where the Russians are seen as potential allies& the Chinese as the major threat to world peace.Add a B-grade mystery flying saucer story crashed in Red China & you've got the bones of the film.But still it holds attention.As the teams discover the saucer & attempt to understand it , the underlying Cold War tensions return.Technologically the saucer has much to recommend it.Anti grav drive ,LED sensor entry,all round cockpit vision , advanced computer graphics & coding system.Add a Journey thru the solar system & problems on re entry (as well produced visual effects )& you've gotSaturday afternoon fare for sure ,as one reveiwer put it , but a good yarn never-the-less.Add a couple of familar faces thrown in ,playing out of character roles just adds to the value.Worth a lookChris D
