It Came from Outer Space Ratings & Reviews
Variety
Picture has been smartly fashioned to take advantage of all the tricks of science-fiction and 3-D.
TV Guide
One of the better science-fiction films to come out of the Cold War 50s, this one must be counted among the anti-McCarthy statements.
Chicago Reader
Jonathan Rosenbaum
[A] scary black-and-white SF effort from 1953.
New York Times
A.H. Weiler
Merely mildly diverting, not stupendous.
Juicy Cerebellum
Alex Sandell
Good, old-fashioned drive-in fun.
New Times
Luke Y. Thompson
Surprisingly good '50s alien invasion flick with giant eyeballs -- maintains its charm despite the lack of 3-D effects on most video copies.
Q Network Film Desk
James Kendrick
predates the paranoia trope made so popular in 1956's Invasion of the Body Snatchers about what is human and what is alien.
Film Freak Central
Walter Chaw
Serling observed that for as lovely as Bradbury was to read, his prose proved nearly impossible to say.
Slant Magazine
Ed Gonzalez
The hokey "xenomorphs" would egregiously emphasize the film's subtle indictment of human prejudice.
Filmcritic.com
Christopher Null
While It Came from Outer Space's theme is a refreshing change of pace from the doomsaying brethren of its era, its appearance is not.
Dennis Schwartz Movie Reviews
Dennis Schwartz
It was one of the first major-studio 3-D productions of the 1950s, and is based on a story by Ray Bradbury called "The Meteor."
