"Partly based on the novel Robur the Conqueror in 1886, and the Master of the World 1904 novel by Jules Verne, this somewhat boring adaptation stars Vincent Price as Captain Robur. The captain has a quest to rid the earth of war by waging wars on the navies and armies of Earth's largest nations...from above! In an airship equipped with weapons, and a dedicated and loyal crew. Captures aboard are four unfortunate people: John Strock, played by Charles Bronson, Mr. Prudent, played by Henry Hull, Dorothy Pride t, his daughter, played by Mary Webster, and her fianceé, Philip Evans, played by David Frankham. The plot takes more than a half an hour to finally begin to get a little interesting. There is mild drama, and action. "
