"Internationl Rescue" Are The Heroes Of The Day!
17 January 2017
(*Fave movie-quote*) - "F.A.B.!"

For starters - This 1966 Sci-Fi/Fantasy story (filmed in Super-Marionation) certainly isn't gonna please any jaded viewers who have been totally spoiled by the CGI effects that dominate such films of today. No way.

But, if you can appreciate an outer space adventure tale (with great production values) that features puppet people acting out the story on fantastic sets (with awesome aircraft and impressive land vehicles), then, yes, "Thunderbirds Are Go!" will definitely leave you entertained and equally satisfied.

Produced on a surprisingly low budget of just $300,000 - This 90-minute, high-tech story of non-stop heroics is based on the popular TV series of the mid-1960s.

Created by Gerry Anderson - I, personally, think that this high-quality, British production still holds up quite well today, 50 years later.

With its amazing attention to detail and its excellent theme music - "Thunderbirds Are Go!' is sure to please any non-jaded viewer, regardless of their age.
