As <a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/dvdsavant\/s444moon.html\">DVD Savant notes in his review<\/a>, &#8220;Although there&#8217;s relatively little of Harryhausen&#8217;s standard animation techniques, the design and creation of the wall-to-wall effects is clearly his&#8221;, and the lunar world encountered by Wells&#8217; Victorian-era space travelers is &#8220;imaginative, colorful and well designed&#8221;. Wells&#8217; original storyline &#8212; about an insolvent playwright and an eccentric scientist encountering an ant-like colony of residents inside the moon &#8212; is padded here with both an irritating romantic subplot between Judd and Hyer (which merely turns our sentiments against the deceitful Judd, who is lying to Hyer):<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-1024x433.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"640\" height=\"271\" class=\"alignnone size-large wp-image-66380\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-1024x433.png 1024w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-300x127.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-128x54.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-768x325.png 768w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-1536x650.png 1536w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer-604x256.png 604w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/05\/First-Men-in-the-Moon-Judd-Hyer.png 1851w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 640px) 100vw, 640px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&#8230;
