MALTIN REVIEW:
D: Jack Sher. Kerwin Mathews, Jo Morrow, June Thorburn, Lee Patterson, Gregoire Aslan, Basil Sydney, Peter Bull. Hero is washed overboard and finds himself in the Land of Lilliput . . . but that's just the beginning. Well-made adventure/fantasy designed for kids, fun for older viewers, too. Fine special effects by Ray Harryhausen, charming Bernard Herrmann score.

MALTIN REVIEW:
D: John Farrow. Chester Morris, Lucille Ball, Wendy Barrie, John Carradine, Allen Jenkins, Joseph Calleia, C. Aubrey Smith, Patric Knowles. This sleeper shows its age a bit, but remains interesting for colorful character studies among passengers on plane downed in headhunter-infested Amazon jungle. Remade by Farrow as BACK FROM ETERNITY.

MALTIN REVIEW:
D: William Wellman. John Wayne, Lloyd Nolan, James Arness, Andy Devine, Walter Abel, Allyn Joslyn. Cliched survival story of a downed transport plane and its crew under the staunch leadership of Wayne, set in Greenland during WW2. Unconvincing and talky most of the way. Look fast for Fess Parker. Written by Ernest K. Gann.

MALTIN REVIEW:
D: Alfred E. Green. Cornel Wilde, Evelyn Keyes, Phil Silvers, Adele Jergens, Dusty Anderson, Dennis Hoey, Rex Ingram. Wilde is a genial, singing Aladdin in this slice of Technicolor escapism, with Silvers as his very contemporary sidekick. Keyes is fun as the impish genie who emerges from a magic lamp. Ingram (who played the genie in THE THIEF OF BAGDAD) has a throwaway role here as a giant. Look fast for Shelley Winters.
