Cataloged as one of the best movies of all times (It won 5 Oscars, included the Best Film). I have the creed to see it, at least once a year. It's simply a sensational movie, a giant production (Mike Todd); of those that were made at the time of the spectacular films. It is based, almost verbatim, on the famous novel by Jules Verne. Very well directed and owner of a pompous and unique scenography in each and every one of the locations in which it was filmed. Excellent performances and no waste. However, the interpreter who steals the show, eclipsing to David Niven and Shirley McLaine is, yes you guessed it, Mario Moreno ("Cantinflas"). I remember seeing her in my early childhood and having enjoyed an unparalleled world of pleasurable sensations: Colorful, adventure, intrigue, romance, beautiful music and, above all, healthy humor. If you are going to enjoy it, do it with the little ones in the house. It is long with desire but it is worth it.
