Journey to the Center of the Earth

Summary: Pretty bad.....
Review: ....This is a bad movie, but I must clear something up. THIS IS NOT FROM THE DIRECTOR OF "THE ROAD WARRIOR"! This is from the director of "Zeus And Roxanne". They're both named George Miller, but they are different people. One is from Australia and one is not. That is all.

Summary: Perhaps no classic as the original, but...
Review: ...my expectations were low, I haven't seen the original or red the book - so I actually enjoyed this movie. It's not Lord Of The Rings, but the effects are actually rather good, it starts a little slow, but after 30 minutes or so it becomes rather entertaining - the acting could have been better, but the cast function ok for a tv-production - I really liked the "underworld-ocean", in my opinion it looks beautiful, and the blue forest as well - the green creatures are done very good - but if you are curious on this movie, don't expect too much from a tv-production like this one is, but if you like adventure and fantasy - you might enjoy it as I did. It's highly recommended fot those who like Hallmark-productions.

Summary: A waste of time and money
Review: A truly terrible film, not worth even the time it takes to read this review. I can not but wonder why they would take a wonderful story like the Jules Verne novel and totaly ruin it ... There are very few things in this film version that can be found in the novel, aside from the change of location they change too much of the plot and in such a way as to make it too rediculous to even laugh at. The acting is mediocre at best, the special effects are the same and the direction even worse along with the terrible screenplay. All in all, a waste of your money and worse, a waste of your time.

Summary: Journey to the center of the earth
Review: Amazing performance by all the cast. The main female lead gives a glowing performance above all others, not only is the story compelling and enthraling, for a tv movie this is an outstanding example of how things should be done. You can't go wrong with this one.

Summary: Let's have the original with James Mason
Review: As a fan of the James Mason/Pat Boone version I had hopes for this adaptation of the Verne novel. I wish amazon had the option to give movies no stars, because this movie isn't even worth one star.

Rating:
Summary: Go Classic
Review: Both these movies have some family entertainment value. I'm not sure I would recommend you buy them unless you all ready have the original movies with these names. These newer versions probably had bigger budgets but they don't hold a candle to the classic 1959 version of "Journey to the Center of the Earth" with James Mason, Arlene Dahl, and Pat Boone and the 1963 version of "Jason and the Argonauts" with Todd Armstrong and Nancy Kovack.

Review: Hi! I saw some reviews on this movie, and I could see no one thought it was very good! I think it was GREAT! Very realistic, good memories from it, and just a two thumbs up film.

Summary: Wait For The 1959 Film
Review: I don't understand why Fox or whomever owns the rights to the 1959 production of this Jules Vernes adventure has not realease it on DVD- the film was shot in spectacular cinemascope and must be seen letterboxed- Bernad Herrmans amazing score deserves the full stereo treatment- and the movie it self one of my all time favorites is a must for every science fiction- adventure- kid friendly collection

Summary: WHAT A WORTHLESS HEAP OF [JUNK]!!!!!
Review: I had hoped when I rented this movie that it would be terrific,however I was severely dissapointed. The acting was absolutely obnoxious,the script was even worse,and the special effects made Willow look like The Lord of the Rings.So many events are repeated in this film its pathetic, and the dialogue is so irritating it could make any person who knows what a good script is go psycho.My quick advice to you,don't watch this movie.
