The sort of melodrama that pretends to be skeptical, but requires that everyone watching it be profoundly gullible. It’s about the efforts of the White House Chief of Staff to hide from the public the fact that the Air Force has caught a flying saucer and is studying it at a secret Texas base (…) In the supporting cast is Debra Macfarlane, who plays a beautiful female specimen found aboard the saucer, a young woman who looks amazingly like a Hollywood starlet. But then, I guess, she is. The flying saucer itself looks like an oversized toy that might have been made in Taiwan. — Vincent Canby
