REVIEWS:

ANOTHER REVIEW:

"I can watch 'The Day The Earth Stood Still' over and over again, and never get tired of it. .... The movie contains several wonderfully subtle moments where
we can sense the true 'alien' status of Klaatu [Michael Rennie]. One such well-scripted occasion is when Klaatu/Carpenter opens up a musical box and is
a bit surprised and amused when he hears a tune coming from within this odd object. The idea of a box that emits music had been completely alien to him. .... [This film] has stood the test of many decades' worth of time, and will
no doubt stand many more to come."

-- David Von Pein; November 2005
