IslandGuru Who payed the critics

Beystiman It's fun, it's light, [but] it has a hard time when its tries to get heavy.

Whitech It is not only a funny movie, but it allows a great amount of joy for anyone who watches it.

Bergorks If you like to be scared, if you like to laugh, and if you like to learn a thing or two at the movies, this absolutely cannot be missed.

Alex Dailey Would recommend made in abyss. So far only 2 episodes are out, but I thought it was fine They're pretty much trying to explore a bottomless pit. It probably isn't bottomless, but no one has been to the bottom. There are otherworldly beasts Sounds interesting enough for me >Spelunking anime

generationofswine Its Jules Verne and I remember having some very positive experiences with him at a very young age. So it has that going for it even if its not really the Jules Verne story, at least not in anything but name and concept.When I was little there was a made-for-TV movie that looked like it was intended to start a series that never happened and all the kids on the block ate it up.Unfortunately the made-for-TV movie was better.This version suffers from the same failure that Beowulf did....it was just too much.They toned it down a bit with the 3D, there were scenes that gave the viewer a break, albeit a short break.The problem is that once the action hit, once the story started to move along the 3D was too much and too constant.I remember vividly when they first arrived in Iceland....and that's about it.Afterwards I just remember all the 3D being too much and too CGI and in the end, I forgot I was watching a movie. They bombarded the audience with too much and, yes, it looked cool, but does that even matter when, in the end, you are too distracted to remember you paid for a movie, and somewhere in there, there was a story with actors actually acting it out...but they were well hidden beneath the 3D effects and you really didn't get to see them.Thank God movies learned how to tone it down and find a happy medium since.

Gordon-11 This film tells the story of a seismologist whose brother disappeared a few years ago. He finds some clues in his brothers belongings, and hence sets off to Iceland with his nephew in search for the missing man."Journey to the Center of the Earth" is pretty scary for a family adventure! That treacherous sea with monstrous creatures is actually scary. The dinosaurs are not for the very young either. Coupled with lots of vertigo inducing heights, roller-coaster action and vertical drops, there is a lot of adventure and thrills for the viewers. The romance subplot is rather unconvincing, but it serves the purpose. It is a brain off action adventure for teenagers.

Yoshi Pink So my friend recommended this movie and I was like, OK, a movie based off of Jules Verne book (I read it about five years so and barely remember it). The movie had this amusing suspense to it and there were a few good scenes in the whole production. The characters acted well and the uncle and nephew bond was very strong. The romance was pretty cheesy (almost like the small romance portion was there just to appeal to a wider variety of audiences, but I guess a part of me was thankful that it wasn't just an action packed movie. I did enjoy the science-fiction "comes to life and is real" theory and I am glad I watched the movie.
