Great Sci Fi film of 1960; basis of TV series of same name.

Reviewed in the United States on August 13, 2019

Verified Purchase

You'll recognize many of the big stars in the film, Walter Pigeon, Peter Lorre, and others. You may recognize Barbara Eden and her husband Michael Ansara in the picture. It is a fun film. It revolves around the world going to end by the atmosphere heating up (no, sorry, not due to "global warming") and it's up to the crew of the Seaview to save the world. The weekly series would start 4 years later, that set of discs is also available from Amazon.

Saving the Earth isn't Easy

Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2014

Verified Purchase

The Seaview, a large nuclear-powered research submarine is ready for its checkout cruise beneath the polar ice cap. For four days it will be incommunicado - Admiral Nelson will have ample time to give the VIPs a grand tour. All is lighthearted until the sub is violently struck by ... by something . . . .

After diving to dodge bus-sized chunks of ice falling through the water, they surface, open the hatch and find the air has become oppressively hot. Above them, crisscrossing glowing orange clouds race across the sky; nearby, the icebergs are melting so fast they are steaming. It's time to break radio silence . . . .

The news is devastating - an unusual meteor storm has triggered Earth's radiation belt to begin radiating intense heat 300 miles (483 km) above the Earth's surface. Already it's 135 degrees F (57 C) and climbing; many have died!

Admiral Nelson and Prof. Emery work out a plan to disperse the belt, propose it at an emergency meeting at the UN, but their plan is rejected as insane; yet, in spite of the protests, Nelson intends to carry out their plan, before it's too late. The Seaview races to reach the missile launch point in time but they are beleaguered with sea monsters, equipment failure, mines, torpedoes, sabotage, attempted murder, and crew discontent; meanwhile, Earth's remaining life is slowly broiling to charcoal . . . .

Extras: "Science Fiction: Fantasy to Reality" (2007) - includes a brief film clip of H.G. Wells; "Barbara Eden Interview"; "Isolated Score Track"; "Commentary by Author Tim Colliver"; "Theatrical Trailer."
Blu-ray - 2013. Sharpness, contrast, brightness, & color: excellent. Sound: volume normal, clarity excellent.

The sky's on fire, the sky's on fire!

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2014

Verified Purchase

I saw this when I was a kid in Chicago and it was a very hot night so I had nightmares and thought the sky was on fire. You suspend disbelief in today's world. Walter Pidgeon did not do his finest work in this (that was Forbidden Planet). Peter Lore was old and loosing it. Robert Sterling I had fond memories of from the TV series TOPPER (he played George Kirby, not to be confused with the comic of the same name). Barbara Eden only looked a tad finer in the TV series I Dream of Jeannie, but hey, you get to see her legs in this one! You also get to see her hubby Michael Ansara (remember him as Cochise in Broken Arrow? I do!) and he does a fine job as the religious zealot. There's also Del Monroe who make it to the TV series as well! They added an "L" to his name and make him Polish for TV (ethnics rule). Del Monroe, Irwin ("The Poseidon Adventure" "The Towering Inferno") Allen and Paul Sawtell (he did the music in all of season one and part of the rest of the show, MAN I love Jerry Goldsmith. I truly love him but he did such a horrible job on the first few episodes of season two on the music, I was so glad Paul Sawtell was called back and replaced him and I TRULY LOVE Jerry Goldsmith, but he didn't do justice to this show). As with the Man From UNCLE the first year (the black and white year and this in in black and white) was the best year. No silly flying sub. We had this Asian enemy who was out to get us in season one and we had silly monsters that looked like rubbery calp from season two on! They worked in 1951 with IT The Terror from Beyond Space but in 1966, come on now IRWIN!!!! Season ONE of Voyage is terrific. This Global edition, once you get past the Van Allen Belt on fire is pretty cool. I loved the Seasview. I use to draw pictures of it along with Supercar. For a kid growing up this was such a cool movie. Now in old age it's still a cool movie so long as you remember that it's fantasy and know that the Van Allen belt can catch on fire and ice bergs don't FALL into the sea and there are NO octapussies (No James Bond pun intended) that can cover the front of a submarine. It's cool fun! Run, chicken little. The sky's on fire!

I always loved VOYAGE TO THE BOTTOM OF THE SEA. This movie was the first VHS tape I ever purchased, but this film on Blu-ray Disc is fantastic! The color and sound are outstanding. I can't say enough on how beautiful this disc is.

Great video and sound quality with only slight fading and redness in a few scenes.

So far the best version yet of "Voyage to the bottom of the Sea" with very sharp picture, good sound quality. The extras were fun, although fairly short. Only minor fading visible in the movie and a slight reddening in some scenes. Would recommend to any fan of this fun old movie.

Voyage To The Bottom Of The Sea

Reviewed in the United States on May 24, 2013

Verified Purchase

This is the movie that started the television series. Although the crew is somewhat interesting, the action is non stop. The title suits it to a tee as the radiation belt catches fire and the Seaview crew had to find a way to extinguish it before the world "burns Up".
Many of the crew members you see in the movie also went on to play regular parts in the T.V. series. This was one of Irwin Allen`s earliest attempts at science fiction and it is definately worth a view or two or more.

Old and Hookey but Still Fun

Reviewed in the United States on March 14, 2014

Verified Purchase

I was really not expecting all that much from it but it had been years since I had seen and I probably never saw in color or on a good set and I know I did not see at the theater. I was really surprised how much better it was than I remembered. The visual look was so much better than I remembered. The story is nothing really special and all the drama is pretty forced and corny but somehow I did enjoy seeing again. Some of the special effects were good, some were barely ok and some are very outdated and probably did not look that good then either.

Great film.

Reviewed in the United Kingdom on December 30, 2019

Verified Purchase

One of my favourite sci-fi films of all time. The sfx are still quite stunning (especially Seaviews first appearance as it surfaces quite spectacularly)
I'll give it 5 stars for the above reasons + the stereo soundtrack and great HD mastering. And of course the beautiful Barbara Eden simply being in the film.
The only small downside is the rather dubious story line involving the van Allen belt. Everything else ranks it among (for me) the best adventure films from the 1960s.
