Comment
A mixed group of Victorian scientists and industrialists get together to build a rocket to send a man to the moon by shooting it out of a tunnel in a Welsh mountain. The whole plan seems unlikely to succeed as it is beset by sabbotage, corruption, spies and incompetance. The plot is patchy with a few funny scenes and some good performances from several comic actors.
