Lighthearted British comedy about a man immune to everything who gets hired for a space flight. Although most of the humor in "Man in the Moon" is of the more subtle type, a wacky scene takes place in the Common Cold Research Center, where they have a constant wind blowing. And then of course, there's a surprise when the man lands on the, ahem, moon. But overall, I'd say that the best thing about this movie is Shirley Anne Field. What a babe! Obviously, space travel was still in its infancy at this point, and an actual moon landing was still a few years away. No matter. It's an enjoyable movie. You're sure to like it.

PS: Charles Gray, who plays Leo, also played Dikko in "You Only Live Twice".
