I found the film "The Day the Earth Stood Still" to be a very good movie. The movie reminded me of "The Twilight Zone" with the spooky music, black and white picture, and the science fiction aspects. I also found the 'special effects' funny because they were so fake but it was still interesting to watch. My favorite character in the movie was Gort because of his incredible abilities of melting and tanks. Gort was capable of even destroying the world. I thought it was interesting that they actually made Lock Martin (a 7 foot 7 inch man) stand in the robot suit all day even though he repeatedly passed out from the heat. Another part of the film I found interesting was that everyone smoked. It seems so strange that the doctors in the film were smoking in the hospital. Finally, I thought the language used in the film was funny. One part that stood out to me was when Bobby called Klatu a "real screwball". This comment was intended as a compliment but to me, it doesnt really sound like something that someone would want to be called.
