This film is the work of one family and is their first effort to make a complete film yet it is a very good piece of work. The story is interesting, the battle scenes are well done, the villain is absolutely hateful, and the hero is admirable! The two men who portrayed hero and villain were very good though several of the other actors were obviously not professionals and is the picture's main weakness. And it has a Christian message not only about strong faith but also about faithful living as a Christian. What more could you ask?

This is one of the very best of the series "Coronet Blue". Frank Converse, as always, is excellent. But so also is Alan Alda as the go-getter astronaut who wants to be the first to fly to Mars and is willing to endure any test the psychologists can dish out. Patrick O'Neal is great as the driven mental health expert who treats his patients as thing to be manipulated, not human beings to be treated with care. A fascinating chapter!
