Review of The Flying Saucer

With THE FLYING SAUCER I was hoping for a mini sci-fi epic of the era, but instead this is a typical spy story with a plodding pace and zero interest in the proceedings. A couple of dull characters head off to Alaska to investigate UFO sightings but only find evil Russians instead. With annoying drunk characters, casual sexism throughout, weak villains and barely-glimpsed science fiction elements, THE FLYING SAUCER is a real bore.
