Underwhelming start to Disney's 1962 live-action offerings.

I didn't enjoy <em>'Moon Pilot'</em>. It's far too talky for my liking, with pretty much 80/90% of the film filled with build-up to the 'main event' which ends up concluding all too quickly. There's slight mystery there with the secondary premise, but that's unfulfilled in favour of chit-chat.

The cast don't give performances to be remembered. Tom Tryon is alright but mostly dull a… read the rest.
