Radar Men still looks great.......2007-05-12

It was great to see the Lone Ranger (Clayton Moore) as a bad guy. The flying sequences still look great. Both the rocket ship flight and Camando Cody's flying scenes still are impressive. They must have used wires?

Proof we are not alone.......2006-01-16

A mysterious set of explosions leaves Commander Cody to the conclusion that we are under attack from an unknown force. As we guessed from the title of the series it must be the "Radar Men from the Moon".
The series and should not be too violent for today's youngsters as most of the time everybody is just slugging each other and when they use guns they can't seem to hit anything other than other guns. If you're young enough this series is very suspenseful. Otherwise you spend most of your time thinking how dumb why didn't they do this or why didn't they do that. Anyway there is a lot of staying in the car scenes or stay in the Rocket ship scenes or don't fly to close scenes.
When will they ever learn?

The good guys consistently insist on being out numbered in fisticuffs and get the snot beat out of them every time; when will they ever learn? And we know why; if you listen closely you will recognize Clayton Moore (alias The Lone Ranger) with out his mask. Still they are persistent. Will it pay off and can Commando Cody save the day or will the bad moon leader Retik rule the Earth?

Maybe not Great, but Fun.......2004-05-30

I bought on price, since there was no info about the disc. Turns out to be "Radar Men from the Moon" a Republic serial featuring Commando Cody and his flying suit. The controls are "up-Down and On-Off", but what else do you need with a flying suit?

All 12 episodes are on the disc. The picture and sound quality is excellent. And the story...

While there are unintentionally amusing bits (the chairs in the spaceship are office chairs such as the one I'm in now; the crook sets the plane into a dive and then pulls the steering wheel off an tosses it out the window) this one is fun.

Commando Cody (Commando seems to be his name, not a rank. Bet his parents were a scream) cuts a fine figure in his flying suit, but when he takes it off, he looks like your best friend's dad. And when he takes it off he's wearing a dress shirt and tie underneath. The female lead is typical filler. One of the guys objects to a woman on the spaceship and her rejoinder is, "You'll be glad to have someone along who can cook your meals." No feminism here, boys.

The special effects are actually pretty good. The ship appears to be fullsize among the mountains, and if the Moon and Earth both look like California, so be it. Each cliffhanger episode compels you to keep on watching. Not great, but fun.

As a glimpse into what your dad did for 12 Saturdays in a row, this one is priceless.
