"The film, along with other 1950s science fiction films, influenced director Stanley Kubrick, who would later direct 2001: A Space Odyssey." I'd like to see a reliable source.

This has been waiting long enough for a review, so I'll give it one. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 05:00, 15 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

Here are the issues I found:

  • The fair use image File:Pairanaliencostume.jpg is unneeded since we have a free image of nearly the same thing; have that deleted.
  • "concluding Japanese Dr. Kumara as the best human to contact." not sure if concluding is best word use here; maybe 'decided on'.
  • I'd normally put the actors in parentheses alongside the role they played in the plot section, but since none of them have articles it's not all that useful in this case. Optional to add.
  • "nameless two-metre-tall black starfish with a single central eye, who walk en pointe like ballet dancers." quote needs cite; i'm positive it's the one in the next sentence so it's easy to add on at least.
  • IMDb shouldn't be used as an RS (ref #10). If possible find a replacement.

I'll put the article on hold and will pass when the issues are fixed. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 17:18, 16 August 2011 (UTC)Reply

I addressed all of your issues except the first, I'm not sure what you mean by the "free image of nearly the same thing".--Architeuthidae (Talk | Contributions) 21:08, 19 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
I mean the second image in the article (the one with the reddish tint) shows pretty much the same thing that the black and white one does. Since one's a free image and the other isn't, I deleted the one that wasn't. Everything else looks good, so I'll pass the article as a GA. Wizardman Operation Big Bear 02:43, 20 August 2011 (UTC)Reply
