Despite the Oscar winning effects, and Alan (Scrooge McDuck) Young, this is one of the WORST films I ever saw in my life. Therefore, perfect RiffTrax fodder!

Rod Taylor is so annoying, the Eloi actors are such airheads they give morons a bad name, and there are too many scenes where nothing remotely interesting happens!

This is one of the few times where the remake film is far superior to the original.
