Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 6/10 --
Of course, it's corny and juvenile but that's the point.
Movie Metropolis
Rating: 4/5 --
Third and final (and actually made in 1940) Flash Gordon serial. Still fun.
Mountain Xpress (Asheville, NC)
Rating: 3/4 --
The serial's production values compensate for the usual Universal cheapness of stock footage and newsreel sequences.

Journal and Courier (Lafayette, IN)
Rating: 3/5 --
The prettiest of the Flash Gordon serials, even though like most Universal chapterplays, it is filled with stock footage and choppy editing.

Though played out against some lavish backdrops, 'Universe' is easily the weakest of the Flash serials.

Description by OLDIES.com:
Flash Gordon (forever personified by Buster Crabbe), Dr. Zarkov and Dale Arden return in the third and final adventure of this immortal science fiction series. Flash must voyage to the planet Mongo, to search for the origin of The Purple Death, a fatal disease that has been wreaking havoc on Earth. Emperor Ming the Merciless is the culprit who, with his villainous army, strikes at Flash with death-dealing futuristic weaponry including atomic ray guns, guided missiles and horrifying explosive mechanical men. Flash Gordon's action and special effects were considered quite remarkable for it's time and set the standard for serials to come.
