Title: Sets the Groundwork
Review: Forbidden Planet is the groundbreaking science fiction film of the '50's. It's not just a "bug-eyed" monster is trying to get us flick that popularized the drive-ins of the day but a well thought out intelligent story with a poignent theme. Many have compared it to Shakespeare's, The Tempest. It may also have been one of the sources for the iconic Star Trek series. I consider it number one of all sci-fi films of the 1950's, with The Day the Earth Stood Still as number two, and Invasion of the Body Snatchers number three.
