Complete waste of time, avoid seriously....

Watched that film after reading some good reviews and expected to get a simple adventure movie kind of entertainment, but sadly this movie does not even deliver anything. Film plot does make a sense in the beginning and main characters try... Full review
This was one damn boring movie!

There is not really that much to say about this movie. It had a good plot - which gave the movie great potential - but they decided to turn it into a stupid, boring childish "adventure" film which was a pain... Full review

An utterly pointless exercise in I don't know what. The special effects? Among the lamest CGI I've ever seen; supposedly better in 3-D by reports, but I doubt it. The characters? vapid, narcissistic, joyless. The 'drama?' none in evidence. The comic... Full review

I HATE BRENDAN FRASER AS MUCH AS I HATE ADAM SANDLER. I COULD KICK THEIR ASSES ANYTIME! SUCH MEDIOCRE ACTORS, BEING SUCCESSFUL JUST BECAUSE OF STUPID PEOPLE WHO LIKES TO SEE STUPID MOVIES. OF COURSE I DIDN'T SEE THE MOVIE, I... Full review

First of all, as for 3-D part, only the yo-yo in the beginning really stands out, but that's probably because of movie rental, not watching in the theater. Anyway, the whole story is like a Universal Studio ride. From falling to... Full review

No, it wasn't Indiana Jones or Batman, but it was certainly family friendly. Brenden Fraser is most likable and goofy, yet brought a warmth to his role that many actors couldn't wrap into the same character. There was cool action and... Full review

This latest adaptation of Jules Verne's Journey to the Center of the Earth takes an unusual approach, acknowledging the original book as an inspiration for its characters. Final Thoughts With or without that third dimension, Journey to the Center of the Earth is good, goofy fun for the entire family--even my young daughters found plenty to enjoy--not intended to be taken too seriously. ...

Here's a perfect popcorn movie for parents and kids to share. He has been searching for his long-lost hero brother, who disappeared looking for a route to the center of the Earth. Fraser, strong- jawed and always decent, is an admirable action hero. ... Full Review

Journey To The Center Of The Earth is a failed trip Sadly, the end result is more like spilling your toys out of the box to find your sister has broken them - and added some dodgy CGI. ... Full Review

Journey to the Center of the Earth is a fun movie the entire family can enjoy together. The movie has some flaws, but kids won't notice and most parents won't mind. The film never gets too scary, but will give the kids a good jump or two. ... Full Review
