ROCKETSHIP X-M
================

A real find this film, ok it's grossly inaccurate when it comes right down to the factual science but it is still a superb film.

The story is basically about the crew of rocketship X-M and there adventures. They set out to land on the moon and set up an untouchable space base. However they miscalculate and end up on Mars instead.
Now that's a bit absurd but let's go with it for now.
The crew consists of four men and one woman:
The Ship designer, Dr. Exum,
Navigator, Lloyd Bridges,
Engineer Major William Corrigan,
A beautiful chemist, Dr. Lisa Van Horn
And a (get ready to die) extra.

On Mars they find remains of a Martian city and surprise, surprise they looked human in form. It is determined that they destroyed themselves using Atomics. They discover a few other Martian goodies and not so goodie, they end up having to make life and death decision and if they get it wrong humanity could be at risk,

The special effects look a little dated but the scenery is quite wonderful to see. The plot hurtles along at an impressive pace and is thoroughly enjoyable. The film itself is a very good watch and I would heartily recommend it.
