Trivia
Robby the Robot's appearance in the film was partly because it was so expensive to build him for El planeta desconocido (1956) that MGM felt obliged to use him in another project.

Errores
Robby the Robot travels freely between the Merrinoe home and the science lab, frequently in broad daylight, yet no one ever sees him.

Citas
Timmie: Can you see around corners?
Robby: No, no, merely through walls.

Créditos curiosos
Opening credits are shown over an entry gate to someone's lovely, expensive home, and towards the end of it, we hear and see a motorcade enter the property.

Can you say Colossus, the Forbin Project?

Interesting precursor to "Colossus, the Forbin Project". A child behaves outlandishly after sleep learning seemingly impossible knowledge. He applies his technique first to beating his scientist father at chess in 6 moves and then rebuilding Robby the Robot (of "Forbidden Planet" fame). Any child would enjoy the adventures of this rather naughty boy. Adults not too jaded by current "action movies" should enjoy it too.
