effects are above average.the acting is good,the story is good,as is
the dialogue.all of these elements are much better than in the later
released television show Lost in Space,which i was reminded of.there´s
even a message that isn´t pounded into the viewer with a sledge
hammer.there are a couple instances of stereotypical characters
behaving in a stereotypical way,but these moments are kept to a
minimum,thankfully.certainly with the era and the genre,there is ample
opportunity for hammy and over the top dialogue and acting but there is
little of that.what we do get is an entertaining and sobering 81 minute
tale that makes you think.for me,Conquest of Space is a 3.5/5
. And summed up by saying decent sci-fi tale for 1955 (3.5/5). Currently Conquest of Space has an overall rating of 8 over 10.
