I found this very interesting in parts and very boring in others....and that was awhile ago. With today's faster-paced movies, I would probably find this too much on the boring side today. The same holds true for the special effects: great in its day, nothing that much today.
This movie features a well-known cast but feels like a 'B' science-fiction film. A couple of decades later, they made another version of this called "Inner Space," and that was more interesting. I think another re-make would be appropriate about now in the mid 2000s. With today's technology, it would look spectacular. That's the problem with movies that rely heavily on special effects: they get dated quickly.
This movie might have been "fantastic" in the mid '60s, but not now.
