WAR OF THE ROBOTS 1978 (MILL CREEK)

Ok, a lot of people bash this film, but let me have my say. This is not a Star Wars rip off by any means. Silver dressed aliens come to earth and kidnap a scientist and his companion in order to force them to help save their planet.
Earth forces set out to rescue them and all out war ensues. As is usual, the dubbing is bad and yes, the costumes are bizarre, but this is just what it should be, an Italian sci-fi film that makes no pretense to be anything else.
Yanti Somer and Melissa Longo are the two leading ladies here and Antonio Sabato is the heroic Captain. Also along for the ride is the man who has been in every Italian movie ever made..Giacomo Rossi-Stuart.
The movie could honestly be trimmed by 20 minutes, but all in all a film only for sci-fi fans, and of little interest to anyone else.
