DESTROY ALL PLANETS
(AKA: GAMERA TAI UCHU KAIJU BAIRASU)(1968)
In the set: 100 Greatest Sci-Fi Classics


The version on the set "Killer Creature Features"
works fine!! The other movie on the "100 Greatest
Sci-Fi Classics" dies at about an hour like several
other movies in that set!!

Another Gamera movie! Made from editing some
of the Japanese TV shows together! Pretty
much aimed at children! This shows many flashbacks
to previous Gamera adventures! And these flashbacks
are just way too long!! Why they thought it
a great idea to glorify the terrible behavior
of the brats in this is beyond me!! C+

From IMDb.com:

It must be remembered that the Gammera movies,
like many of the first-series Gozilla films,
WERE in fact aimed squarely at kids. Little
Kenny and his cohorts are living out the
daydreams of the kids in the audience: they
get to run around and play with top-secret
stuff while the adults stand by and allow
it; they get to cavort with monsters, and
even when the bad guys enter, they are
never in any real danger.

Perhaps the first Gammera film is an
aberration because the child DOES get
punished and IS put into danger, but the
rest of the series is pure wish fulfillment.

As one critic said, these aren't failed
adult movies but successful kid's
movies. - cpetr13
