This movie was fantastic! Now, obviously it being made in 1954, film has evolved quite a bit since then. Are the effects old? Yes, but that doesn't mean they still weren't great and display the superiority of practical effects over computer generated ones. Was the story slightly obsurd? Yes, but that doesn't mean it still wasn't fun and engaging. Was the dialogue over-simplified and cheesy? Yes, but that doesn't mean it didn't serve it's purpose and it wasn't certainly Michael Bay dialogue bad. Did the female lead have 27 different times where she was the first person to turn or see the Creature and scream loudly so as to draw the attention of the other characters to said Creature? Yes, but that doesn't mean this wasn't great cinema. This is a classic monster movie that sits up there with best of them.
