A nice little Jules Verne movie, with a low budget, but lots of fun. If Vincent Price eats the scenery as madman Robur, Bronson is good as U.S. agent John Strock, ancestor to James T. West from TV show "WILD WILD WEST". AIP thought of making the character a hero of a sequel, but it didn't materialize.
Even if they met years ago on "HOUSE OF WAX", Price couldn't stand Bronson's behavior and even refused talking about him on talk shows, when Bronson became a big star. Anyway "MASTER OF THE WORLD" is one of Bronson's best roles in the early sixties.
