The Day The Earth Stood Still (1951)


Simple. Human. Moral. (SHM)


Final Verdict: While it’s message about war and conflict clearly stands the test of time, the rest of the movie falls short. It’s a great film, don’t get me wrong, but by today’s standards it’s very simple and formulaic.


Spoiler(s): The alien’s name is Klaatu and his robot’s name is Gort. Those will be the names of my first two children.


Rotten Tomatoes Rating: 93%
