Although it has its amusing moments, in eneral the plot does not convince.

Amazing worth wacthing. So good. Biased but well made with many good points.

This is ultimately a movie about the very bad things that can happen when we don't address our unease, when we just try to brush it off, whether that's to fit in or to preserve our self-image.

Let me be very fair here, this is not the best movie in my opinion. But, this movie is fun, it has purpose and is very enjoyable to watch.

So someone said, "Hey, the Jules Verne story is great, but you know what would make it REALLY great? Hot babes and machine guns!" And so, The Asylum, whose cheesy movies are much more charming than their IMDb reviews suggest, rewrites the classic story, adds lots of heaving breasts and firepower, throws in the same t-rex and giant spider they put in practically all their movies, and creates another time waster that's really no worse than that Brendan Fraser big-budget nonsense.And really, I more resent shelling out my hard-earned money for blatant audience contempt like the Brendan Fraser movie than I do the five bucks I paid for this one, (1) because it's unapologetically cheesy and doesn't trick me into thinking it's anything else, and (2) because it came in a $5 DVD set with five other cheesy movies, so the cost to me was really less than a buck plus the time to watch it. A bargain, I say.But I agree with other reviewers here that it needed some topless and/or babe-babe kissing scenes to make it a classic. With The Asylum, though, it's all about the teasin' and not about the pleasin'.

By every account this is a terribly bad movie. Why do I give it so many stars (well, 4 out 10)? Because the cheese factor kind of works in it's favor ... for me. It's got some sort of sick charm that appeals to 1 out of every 50 people and I guess I'm that 1 person.Given that in 2008, 2 other Journey to the Center of the Earth movies were made (one Theatrical, one for the Hallmark TV channel) ... what spin could this one take? An all-female cast for starters (well, there is one slightly older middle-aged guy present, but he doesn't count), and teleportation to add a little novelty.Here's the setup: a military team of women are using a relatively new teleportation machine to zip over to Germany. Their path takes them through the center of the Earth (well, only 600km deep) ... and something goes wrong and they get stuck in said location. The hot female scientist who designed the machine is now just finished work on a nuclear-powered, laser-blasting deep digging machine. This is what's used to rescue the lost women.Part of the cheese factor for me is that in spite of a low budget, ridiculous cast and idea and clear special effects goofs (I don't think we're meant to see clouds underground) ... everyone in the movie tries to be serious. The result is a kind of offbeat amusement. In fact, I'm actually pretty impressed that the film makers didn't go the "T&A" route; the girl with the lip-ring in the beginning almost gets you thinking otherwise.Anyway, I do not recommend watching this movie. However, if you believe that you may happen to like knucklehead adaptations of "Journey to the ..." movies, then by all means check it out. I kind of liked it.

OMG who pieced this pile of dung together? My husband and I make a practice of watching these awful SCI-FI movies for comic relief, and this was one of the worst (most laughable) yet. I understand this is science fiction, but goes way beyond believable. First of all, that group of "soldiers" acts more like a bunch of sorority chicks throughout the entire movie than a military unit. Second, my hand-held GPS loses signal when I go into a parking garage... how does their radio manage to work 600 kilometers underground? Third, I've seen foreign cartoons with better voice-overs than this. Fourth, the scientist lady says she can't fit 6 folks in her drilling unit, but it looks like she has room for 10! There are holes in this movie a mile wide. Or maybe just one big hole 600 kilometers deep...Don't make the mistake of getting this instead of the Branden Fraser version. I don't know how these people got away with making this cruddy flick with the same name about the same thing in such a horrible way. It's basically one step up from you filming plastic dinosaurs and Barbie dolls in your yard with a camcorder. In fact, that'd probably be more interesting!

First, a single-word summary-- Unwatchable.As I watched this film, I couldn't shake the impression that this may have been some group's first attempt at making a movie, with actors, crew, and technicians who are still learning their craft. The premise is intriguing, but of all the attempts to bring Jules Verne's 1864 novel to the screen, this one may be the worst of the lot. I am as willing as anyone to suspend my disbelief and hang on for the ride, if the story is well-told; but the wooden acting, preposterous dialog, cheesy special-effects, and overall lack of focus and discipline added up to a rather grueling hour and a half, that felt like six hours. If they were still making episodes of Mystery Science Theater 3000, this turkey would be ripe for a good basting.
