I am always surprised by the career of Gordon Douglas, who has made all kinds of films: westerns, crime, adventure, science fiction, comedy, musical, drama, war.... A very prolofic and "complete" director. A very good technician. No really proper style. I did not know this Jerry Lewis' film, made in the late sixties, not his best part of career. This not a science fiction movie, despite the plot, topic taking place in space. Norman Taurog or Frank Tashlin, usual Jerry Lewis directors should have made it, and certainly not Douglas, who deserved better than this, really. RIO CONCHOS maker had nothing to prove with this awful mess. Jerry Lewis tries his best to save the result, but it is hopeless.
