When I first about this film I was thinking 'oh god' more crapola, but again I have been surprised. With so many versions to compete against there is a pretty high bar to hurdle but it hurdles it well. The effects are really nice and colourful, much alike the 60's version, there ...( read more)

Cheesy good fun for the family, but seeing in 3-D is essential. Part thrill ride, part video game, part virtual reality, it is a lively and satisfying update of a good old-fashioned Saturday afternoon serial adventure saga. Icelandic actress Anita Briem is a plus.

While the film itself may not be more than decent popcorn entertainment, having little more to do with the classic Jules Verne story than the basic idea, it is the IMAX experience that is so much fun and should be rated here. The film lacks the atmosphere and charm of the old Jam...( read more)

I love films that were made for no other reason than the one of simply entertaining crowds. It was silly, shallow, pointless but fun nonetheless. I won't even bother talking about the direction or the performances because it is highly irrelevant. For what it is, it's a great film...( read more)

Critic Reviews
...the 3-D version of the film is good, dumb fun. In standard 2-D, I imagine, it would just be dumb, and much less fun full review
Flat and predictable, though the visuals are often striking. full review
A movie that's faithful to an idea, and to a sense of adventure, more than to a specific work. full review
I don't know if 3-D could improve all movies (nothing could make The Love Guru funny) but it sure works here. full review
Clean, lightweight escapism with a top-notch gimmick. full review
This is a fairly bad movie, and yet at the same time maybe about as good as it could be. full review
Special effects have come a long way since Jurassic Park, but you wouldn't know it from Journey to the Center of the Earth. full review
It would be barely passable under normal circumstances, but in 3-D it's a circus of excellent FX. full review

August 10, 2008When i was looking at the previews of this movie on t.v i believed this movie to be very different from all the other movies.. but when i went to see the movie in theatres i really wished that i should have gone to see the mummy instead of this movie beacuse it was'nt as i expected it to be.. plus the movie didnt have a lot of action as they showed in the commercials.. and the 3-d effects were not as fabulous either so.. basically JOURNEY TO THE CENTER O THE EARTH did'nt live upto my expectations! I'd probably rate this movie 3 stars!
