“There are some corners of the universe which have bred the most terrible things.”

 

Tout le dernier acte est un triomphe.

Les Cybermen ne seront jamais aussi drôles qu’ici, et ont carrément de l’air de poupées sans vie qui volent dans le ciel.

Mais surtout comme ils sont devenus des robots certes agréablement silencieux mais vides, cette seule fin les rend bizarres à nouveau. (...)

The Moonbase n’est peut-être alors jamais aussi bon que chaque moment grandiose qu'il copie de The Tenth Planet, il y a quand même un peu de magie qui en surgit.

“There are some corners of the universe which have bred the most terrible things.”

The entire last act is a triumph.

The Cybermen will never be as funny as they are here, and they literally look like lifeless dolls flying in the sky.

But above all, as they have become robots that are indeed pleasantly silent but empty, this very end makes them weird again. (...)

The Moonbase may never be as good as each grandiose moment it copies from The Tenth Planet, but there is still a bit of magic that emerges from it.
