4.0 out of 5 stars You CAN'T compare it with the original. Give it a chance!, April 2, 2005

This review is from: Journey to the Center of the Earth (DVD)

I'm absolutely amazed at the overwhelming number of poor reviews this movie seems to have generated. I feel strongly that this movie has a lot going for it, but to truly appreciate it, you have to begin with one thing in mind: This is NOT the Jules Verne classic! This movie is not an attempt to re-create the original story (or even the classic movie starring James Mason), so if you purchase or rent this movie believing that is what you're going to find- forget it. It seems that the majority of reviewers are spending too much time trying to grade this movie against the original- their main dissapointment stemming from the fact that it is NOT the original. I believe, that if viewed as a stand-alone sci-fi miniseries, this has a lot going for it: A well-written story with interesting and well-balanced characters, stunning scenery and visual effects, a fine pacing, and interesting concepts. The "suarians" are very interesting creatures, and are visually stunning in execution. If the Krofft boys ever eventually get around to producing their "promised" LAND OF THE LOST movie, these creatures make a good basis for a more up-to-date Sleestak: fast, lethal, and deadly.

1.0 out of 5 stars TERRIBLE!, December 10, 2000

This review is from: Journey to the Center of the Earth (DVD)

This movie is so bad. The orginal with Pat Boone and James Mason is so much better. I can't understand why it is not on DVD.

Why can't we get the James Mason - Pat Boone version?
