I can't think of one good thing to say about it. We thought it couldn't be too bad if Brendan Fraser was in it. Wrong.

Journey to the center of the Earth is funny, entertaining and visually dazzling and the chemistry between the three stars lights up the screen which helps the film be a heartfelt and surprisingly original adventure. I give this movie 79%.

It's not completely unbearable, but the script is trash, and the CGI effects are mediocre at best.

Excellent Saturday morning fun. My 6 year old loved - and that is who it is aimed at - excellent cartoon fun.

Granted, not a deep and meaningful movie, but it was a hell of a lot of fun to watch. Good special effects, imaginative, very well paced and highly entertaining. I very much enjoyed it.

Well made. Slightly childish. Makers probably thought they needed 3D to make the story interesting. Of the course the orginal movies was better.

The movie delivers what it promises... a fun ride for the whole family. Is it a perfect movie? No. Are the visual effects great? No. Is the acting riveting? No. But who cares... it entertainment.

(Not a rating of movie itself, but more like the plot) How can this be that bad? Well, Ian mcshane isnt in it so it has to be REALLY Terrible! I mean, how popular was Narnia when it came out to knock off of it?

How people did not learn anything after the first Mummy movie is beyond me. Consistently dreadful dialog and endless greenscreen usage is all I see. Don't waste your hard-earned money on this tripe.

This modern version of it couldn't handle the same element of the old one and kept using this as a vehicle for Fraser. This film sucks.

The movie never takes itself seriously. It's whole purpose is fun and it succeeds at its purpose. A real relief after some comic book movies which take themselves a bit too seriously.

I defanitly had fun and it was enjoyable. This is mainly a movie for a younger audience. Only because there was no adult humor and such unbelievable events that happen.

It was totally a kick -- but has to be viewed in 3-d.

The best 3D sequences in the movie were the opening and closing credits. Nowhere else in the movie was the 3D used as effectively. I could hear the kids in the theatre yawning once the intitial thrill of the 3D wore off.

May keep you entertained long enough to determine whether your headache was caused by the 3D glasses or the mind numbing dialog. A completely silent crowd after a big punchline is never a good sign.

TURKEY time in July. In line for the Raspberry for the worst movie of the year. Avoid.

This is an OK young kids movie. But when the 3D is added it is a really fun movie for any aged person who has some love of fun in them.

Other than the 3-D effects used from top to the center of the earth, it's pretty bad. Movie: 4 With 3-D: 6

A silly movie who's plot revolves mostly on impossible cell phone reception,corny effects and bad acting. the 3-d glasses do NOT save the plot and performance of this movie.

I's slightly better than Charlie's Angels: Full Throttle, but that's really not saying much. OMG the logic in this film is non-existent. I'm amazed that Braden Fraser's career even exists after this.

Indiana Jones wannabee! this movie doesn't even cut the "average" movie. It bunks itself in between "worthless" and "awful" my 8 year old cousin told me he fell asleep while watching it. Only a 2 year old would find it eye opening.

It takes an overused but stylish story direction and it is quite amusing. The adventure is a fun ride to watch and Brendan Frasier does great here.

WHY WAS THIS MOVIE MADE? Sorry for the all caps rage! This is a mediocre waste-land where good movie go to die. Horrible, cheap, played for "laughs". Jesus....what a freakin' waste.

Liked the 3d but this movie needed something more. A better script probably

Visual effects are on par, but the story and the acting sink this movie way down the list. Almost everything could've been improved, including the miscast of Brendan Frazier. Boy, is that guy making some crap movie nowadays.

An ok action/adventure film for the whole family to enjoy, especially younger kids. The story isn't great, but the visuals and SFX are pretty good. It has enough to keep all ages entertained for 90 minutes but the kids will no doubt enjoy it more.

BAD
When I watched it as a kid I liked it.
Now ...... it's bad.
It's not even comparable to Jules Verne original novel and even the 50s film was better.

The story has a couple downfalls, but other than that it is great. The effects were actually not bad, like others say. I would give it a 7 if it wasn't awkward at some points.
