Journey to the Center of the Earth (1993)

Don't listen to the Hype. It's awful

I enjoyed watching this film and would recommend other to give it a try , (as I am) but this movie, although enjoyable to watch due to the better than average acting fails to add anything new to its storyline that is all too familiar to these types of movies.

The movie turns out to be a little better than the average. Starting from a romantic formula often seen in the cinema, it ends in the most predictable (and somewhat bland) way.

One of the worst ways to make a cult movie is to set out to make a cult movie.

One of the Worst Movies Ever Made. Plane and simple Crap.Crappy acting, plot, dialogue, costumes, set designs, music, color, lighting, cinematography. Simply boring crap. I watched the first 10 minutes and couldn't take it any further. I started skipping and fast forwarding and wherever I landed it was the same rotten quality garbage up until the end. The best part of the movie is at the end. Why was this produced? Even for a TV movie, there must be a standard of quality. This does not meet that standard. Pure crap.One of the Worst Movies Ever Made. Plane and simple Crap.Crappy acting, plot, dialogue, costumes, set designs, music, color, lighting, cinematography. Simply boring crap.

I watched it, despite it being appalling. I was at least waiting to see they they resolved everything and managed to return to the surface.Then the film ended. All still unresolved and underground.Apparently it was a feature length pilot so they were just setting the scene for a series to follow.Needless to say no-one bought it and the series was never made.It was bad. They spent about £1.25 on the musical score, most of that was rental on a bad synthesiser on which they pressed the dramatic sci-fi chords button.The acting wasn't terrible, and the yeti character looked quite convincing.But the special effects were feeble. But the worst aspects of the film are the plot and the script. Truly abysmal!

My grandparents taped this movie off the TV and gave it to me, and I must have watched it 10 or 15 times. I remember it quite well, with its lame plot twists and bad graphics, it was like watching the ultimate cartoon. Don't ask questions, because explanations that don't exsist just spoil the fun.

Hysterically awful TV update of the classic story clearly (or hopefully) wasted most of its budget on beer, because the special effects stretch to little more than a bloke in a bizarre furry white suit and a dizzily-whizzing, chirpy female head in a bubble (which may remind Brit viewers of a certain recent Building Society Ad). And F. Murray Abraham's in it! It's less than a decade since the Oscar, for God's sake, 'F'! But its fun. GREAT fun. Watch it AFTER the pub, as I'm ashamed to say I did not, and its a classic.
