Rating: C- --
The military use smoke and chemical bombs (maybe they contained Raid) to kill it, as the film mercifully ends.

In the annals of big-bug movies, this one falls somewhere in the middle.

Rating: 3/5 --
Fun entry into the giant bug movies of the 1950s
Lawrence Journal-World
Rating: 3.5/5 --
Having already been through ants, grasshoppers and spiders, the giant bug movie was clearly running the risk of making the entire sci-fi subgenre unbelievable.

Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: 2/5 --
One of Universal-International cheapie '50s bug movies. Bring on the DDT.
Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Rating: 3/5 --
Very '50s sci-fi with giant insect on the climb, and typically fun overall.
