Clevercell Very disappointing...

Spidersecu Don't Believe the Hype

StyleSk8r At first rather annoying in its heavy emphasis on reenactments, this movie ultimately proves fascinating, simply because the complicated, highly dramatic tale it tells still almost defies belief.

Invaderbank The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.

grizzlekix Great storyline, good characters, good watch. Love baby josh hutcherson.

invisibleunicornninja A few years ago my mom borrowed this movie from the library claiming that it was entertaining. It is not. Do not watch this movie. It is terrible. Characters - I have no clue if there were actually characters in this movie. A more accurate description would be "a couple of people were asked to read lines, and walk across poorly designed greenscreens in an effort to get people to call them actors." Take it from me, no one on the cast of this movie cared enough to even attempt a convincing performance. The script was pretty bad, but still. Plot - This movie is mostly boring filler. There is a plot, but there are no stakes to it and it doesn't help that most of the human beings shown onscreen are too dumb to breathe. Sights and Sounds - Nothing in this movie that doesn't take place on the surface looks real - and even then there is still some unconvincing CG above ground. Maybe this movie looked good in theaters - I don't know - but most people aren't going to see this movie in theaters seeing as how this movie was released 10 years ago (more depending on when you're reading this review). If the only thing that your movie has to offer is that it looks kinda cool in 3D on a big screen, then you have failed. The sound mixing is also pretty bad. Message - True, I might not have been paying too much attention by the end (the only reason I watch this movie all the way through was because I was bribed) but I'm pretty sure the end message was that lying and stealing is good. The "protagonists" lie and steal all throughout the movie, and in the end they come out on top. Great message for the kids to learn.

SanteeFats First of all I really like Brendon Frazer. He plays his roles tongue in cheek and with out trying to be taken too seriously. In this remake of the Jules Verne classic they take a slightly different tack on the theme. Looking for an Icelandic expert Brendon and his nephew meet the daughter of the deceased man. So the three of them go on a trek and find the hole to the center of the earth. Here they find many adventures and come across the site of the nephew's fathers notes. Turns out the temperature is going to rise to 200 plus degrees. That will kill everyone. So after some trying times they set sail across the rising seas trying to get to the vent leading to the outside. Of course they end up returning to the "real world" where they came from. Now if the temp rises so high how does the animals survive? I can see the water species surviving if they can go deep enough but what about the birds and such? A watchable movie that I found pretty entertaining.

clovrboy1 Great Movie loved it, however, living in Iceland for over a year and close to Snaefelnes on the mountain, it rains but there was no lightening. That was the only drawback about that............I never seen it lightening once while I was there.........and we used to go clear to the top of the mountains to retrieve sheep.............other than that great movie..........loved the features and the special effects. I wish I could have understood a little more of what Hannah was talking about as her Icelandic was muffled. I do know that there are mysterious caves there, many of the folk there believe in rock trolls........and gnomes, and elves.
