    When Worlds Collide

    As a older person I have recently become interested in childhood memories. I first saw this film many years ago as a kid. Way back then as a 7 year old I was no doubt excited about the movie and enjoyed watching it, anyway fast forward to 2025 and I now in my late 60's and I recently became aware that this film has been made available on DVD and so I decided to get a copy of it. It is nice that people make these very old classic movies available for people to purchase and I for one hope this trend continues. Final thoughts, it is important to remember that this film is over 70 years old and it can not compete with modern films and modern attitudes, but given these obvious limitations I still managed to enjoy the movie. Many thanks from a satisfied customer in the UK.

    S. F. CLASSIC?

    I don't mind science fiction being far-fetched, but it has to make some sort of sense within it's own logic - this doesn't - it's utterly preposterous. Even so, a few special effects, primitive though they were in the 60's, would have helped - there weren't any - sad and pathetic. This commands a premium price on eBay because it's a rarity - I've discovered why - nobody in their right mind would waste their time watching it!

  • Great 50s Sci-fi Classic

    This is probably my favourite 50s sci-fi film; great story that builds the tension to an exciting climax. Armageddon and Deep Impact were clearly influenced by it.

  • We're all doomed! 🤣😂

    This is an old movie that's been converted to the digital format. It was great to see it again. Images are not so great, but what do you expect when it's an old film. It was however, worth every penny. Thank you.🙂

  • Brilliant no doubt in it's day but not now !!!

    Couldn't believe I was watching this! the special effects must have been put together in a classroom @ the end part of the film especially ( yes I kept my eyes open until then ) when the space ship was landing wow that blew my mind 🤣🤣🤣🤣 still what can you expect for a film which was made before I was born ! Just 🤣💯💯

  • .

    Groundbreaking film for its time (1951), with decent special effects, particularly the planetary collision, with decent character-development, despite the pyrotechnics.
