Unlike <em>Destination Moon<\/em>, <em>Conquest<\/em> has a rather far-fetched psychological plot embedded into its narrative, one which allows for a philosophical-cum-religious inquisition into the ethics of space travel: should Earth-born men really be venturing into the unknown, potentially &#8220;godless&#8221; universe? Unfortunately, Brooke&#8217;s sudden religiosity doesn&#8217;t ring true (it smacks soundly of &#8220;plot device&#8221;), and neither do the interactions between the other stereotypical characters on board the ship (Phil Foster&#8217;s &#8220;Noo Yawker&#8221; is particularly egregious). With that said, it&#8217;s refreshing to see a pre-&#8220;Star Trek&#8221; sci-fi film with an Asian cast member; as long as you ignore Fong&#8217;s notoriously wrong-headed speech early in the film, he&#8217;s a welcome presence.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Redeeming Qualities and Moments: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Some visually nifty &#8212; albeit technically crude &#8212; special effects<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Special-Effects.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Special-Effects.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"576\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-63013\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Special-Effects.png 750w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Special-Effects-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Special-Effects-128x98.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Special-Effects-352x270.png 352w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>Martin&#8217;s corpse drifting surreally into space<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Corpse.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Corpse.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"576\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-63014\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Corpse.png 750w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Corpse-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Corpse-128x98.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Corpse-352x270.png 352w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The fiery red Martian landscape<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Mars.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Mars.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"576\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-63016\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Mars.png 750w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Mars-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Mars-128x98.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Mars-352x270.png 352w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<li>The welcome presence of a Japanese man (Benton Fong) who&#8217;s treated as an intelligent equal<br \/>\n<a href=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Fong.png\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Fong.png\" alt=\"\" width=\"750\" height=\"576\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-63015\" srcset=\"https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Fong.png 750w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Fong-300x230.png 300w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Fong-128x98.png 128w, https:\/\/filmfanatic.org\/wp-content\/uploads\/2007\/10\/Conquest-Of-Space-Fong-352x270.png 352w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 750px) 100vw, 750px\" \/><\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><strong>Must See? <\/strong><br \/>\nNo, but fans of George Pal&#8217;s work will certainly be curious to check it out. <\/p>\n<p><strong>Links: <\/strong><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/imdb.com\/title\/tt0047947\/\">IMDb entry<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.nytimes.com\/1955\/05\/28\/archives\/special-effects-show-conquest-of-space.html\">NY Times Original Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.moriareviews.com\/sciencefiction\/conquest-of-space-1955.htm\">Moria Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"http:\/\/www.dvdtalk.com\/dvdsavant\/s1416conq.html\">DVD Savant Review<\/a><\/li>\n<li><a href=\"https:\/\/www.timeout.com\/movies\/conquest-of-space\">Time Out Capsule Review<\/a><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<\/td>\n<\/tr>\n<\/table>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;According to the Bible, Man was created on the Earth.
