NekoHomey Purely Joyful Movie!

Aiden Melton The storyline feels a little thin and moth-eaten in parts but this sequel is plenty of fun.

Erica Derrick By the time the dramatic fireworks start popping off, each one feels earned.

Billy Ollie Through painfully honest and emotional moments, the movie becomes irresistibly relatable

Wuchak Released in 2007, "30,000 Leagues Under the Sea" features an eccentric billionaire madman, Captain Nemo, who's obsessed with the underwater world and threatens to destroy the surface with only his underwater utopia remaining. His ship, The Nautilus, is a mobile submarine city and includes civilians. It's up to a Naval rescue crew, led by Natalie Stone and Lorenzo Lamas, to stop him.This is a The Asylum flick, a company known for its low budget knock-offs of major productions. I've only seen a couple of their films and actually liked 2009's "The Land that Time Forgot" by C. Thomas Howell. That plus the fact that I'm a fan of Jules Verne, Captain Nemo and Mysterious Island gave me hope.The movie attempts a James Bond/Jules Verne hybrid in that it has the same plot as 1977's "The Spy Who Loved Me." Captain Nemo, played by Sean Lawlor, even looks like Charles Gray's Blofeld from 1971's "Diamonds Are Forever." Unfortunately, it fails on many levels. Lamas and Lawlor are effectively charismatic in their roles, but most of the rest of the cast are okay at best and sometimes downright bad. The CGI is cartoony, but serviceable for a low budget flick. I can forgive practically any production weakness if the story is captivating, but this is where the movie fails most. The set-up of the first half hour is relatively dull, but things perk up when Nemo appears. Unfortunately, the movie doesn't capitalize on this and it spirals into a boring darkened vessel adventure, like a bad episode of Deep Space Nine. On the female front Kim Little is fetching, but they don't do enough with her. By the last 12 minutes I couldn't wait for it to be over.The movie runs 86 minutes.GRADE: D+

asinyne I enjoyed this little flick. Hard to believe it was made for a half million dollars cause it looks pretty darn good. The story is pretty well known of course but it managed to be reasonably fresh. Undersea movies make me kinda claustrophobic for this one didn't get to me to bad. I would never go on any kind of submarine...I will wait until I am dead to get buried thank you. The cast seemed to be having fun, especially Mr Lamas and the fine actor who played Nemo. Nemo is certainly one of the great characters in fantasy. Thanks Jules. Despite this being low budget I thought it was easy to watch and there is a good bit of suspense and fun to be had. Some of the characters were a bit wooden but the lady lead is smoking hot and overall the cast performed well. The effects were actually very superior considering the budget, great job! I generally enjoy Asylum movies and some are real gems like this one. Just a nice way to help pass off a slow night and nothing beats a good old fashioned adventure picture. Probably deserved a rating closer to a seven but I added a point for effort and the fun factor.

random343343 What can I say; if I had to sum this movie up in a word I would say boring. Admittedly it had a budget of only 500 000 but so did the cube and they managed something that was at least respectable.Let's start with the acting. It would have to be some of the most wooden acting I have ever seen. Every line was delivered in a monotone that ABC news cant even match. And there is so much dialog in this movie, it is difficult to tell how bad the script is because the bad acting over shadows everything else.The special effects were half decent for the budget, but these days special effects are pretty easy to do. I myself could almost to as good as this and I know many people who could to better.Never judge a book by its cover and same with movies. I like a over the top unrealistic explosive movie but this is just plain boring. I was lured in by the interesting out there cover, but ten minutes in and I already regretted it. Hopeless 2/10.(10 perfect, 5 not really worth my time, 1 I would rather watch grass grow for 10 hours than watch this movie for 10 minutes).

CaptBryl I can stomach poorly presented Sci-Fi at many levels, but the horror of 30,000 Leagues Under the Sea has left me feeling - not unlike it's poorly scripted and utterly inconsistent villain - that nuclear missiles would be a suitable option in this case.If you're coming to this expecting anything similar to the novel or previous film, you're truly going to be disappointed. Jules Verne has provided the scriptwriters with a few names and after that they appear to have burnt the rest of the book.Poorly acted, poorly scripted, poor set-designs, poorly lit, the sound poorly mixed - with sometimes inaudible and overlapping dubbing in - this film starts off bad and just gets worst.The most criminal act perpetrated by the team behind this is the apparently complete and utter lack of research performed whilst scripting this. At the stage where the commander of a (blatently WWII era) battleship orders it to steam at over 70 knots, my eyes glazed over, my mouth dropped open and I sat vegetable like at the ensuing horror. The set designers are not escaping this in glory either, whilst I understand the budgeting concerns, would it not perhaps be quite easy to remove the equipment that is clearly and prominently marked with the name of the cargo ship they are filming the "Battleship" scenes on - I managed to spot a fire axe, a lifeboat, and a life ring all happily visible in the background, just turning axe and life ring around would have sufficed but no, it's this slipshod attention to .... absolutely everything that sticks the rusty nails into this rotting coffin of idiocy.In summary. No. No. A thousand times no!
