Both films display the high produciton value Nordisk had attained after almost a decade as one of the top five film production companies in the world. In "The end of the world" (1916) the rumour spreads that a comet is on a collision course with Earth. Inspired by the fear evoked by Halley's Comet in 1910, this film was clearly addressed to a public in an age of war. "A trip to Mars" (1918) is a lavishly produced space-travel picture and a milestone in the science fiction genre."--Container.
