Product Description

IJourney to the Center of the Earth 3D/I is full of whizz-bang demonstrations of how far 3D technology has come--trilobite antennae quivering towards the audience, a T-rex lunging out of the frame, even affable star Brendan Fraser spitting on us--as well as a half-dozen action sequences clearly destined to become videogames or theme park rides. The plot is incidental: When a seismic geologist (Fraser) discovers his lost brother's notes in a copy of the titular Jules Verne novel, he and his nephew (Josh Hutcherson, IBridge to Terabithia/I, IZathura/I) head to Iceland. There, joined by a fetching mountain guide (played by Icelandic actress Anita Briem), they get trapped in a cavern and go down, down, down, finally arriving in a primeval underworld full of prehistoric beasts and carnivorous plants. It would be pointless to complain about the empty-headedness of it all; IJourney to the Center of the Earth 3D/I aspires to be a kinesthetic experience. It wants to engage your adrenal glands, not your brain or your heart (the dialogue and characters are so generic, the script may have been cut-and-pasted from previous versions of Verne's book). Fraser, with his goofy handsomeness and accessible presence, provides a reasonably human axis around which all the frantic flying and swooping CGI effects revolve. The movie is as hollow as the world it depicts, but as mindless action movies go, you could do a lot worse. I--Bret Fetzer/I

 Awesome movie!! December 3, 2008
Misty Cahoon (Ellabell, GA)
I absolutely LOVE Brendan Fraser so I HAD to have this movie... br / br /The 3d effects are great! I get motion sickness so I had a problem leaving the glasses on for the whole movie. But as long as you can focus just on the movie it should be fine. I am just strange so LOL. br / br /But I highly recommend this movie for the whole family!! br /
3d effects December 3, 2008
Michael Colten (Leominter, MA)
The movie itself was very entertaining. I was very disappointed in the 3D effects however. The left eye worked fine completely blocking out the right eye's magneta images but the right eye always left some green image resulting in a double image effect no matter how much I changed the tint,color, brightness and contrast on my High Def TV. br /I would recommend the Blu-Ray 2D version but not the 3D because of the double vison.
Brendan and cast do it again! December 3, 2008
Michelle Asquith (Melbourne Australia)
Been a fan of Brendan Fraser for many years, and this movie is Brendan at his greatest. His deliverance of the one liners I laughed so much! I've never seen a movie were Brendan made me cry, in one section of this movie, He brought tears to my eyes. It's a must watch for all Fraser fans. br / br /It's a fun film for all ages Fraser fans or not. br / br /This product comes with both 3D and normal picture which was a bonus, br /I saw the movie 3D at the cinema and was so looking forward in getting it home, the only thing that I must say I HATED the glsses that came with the movie, I wish it came with the glases that we wore at the cinema. The 3d effects still work but I feel the clour is all wrong. br /
Don't expect Indiana Jones, but still an okay movie December 3, 2008
Melissa (USA)
Firstly, I did not watch this in 3-d which might have improved my rating from a three star to a possible three and a half star. Brenden Frasier lacks some of his charm in this movie; the lines seemed to be flatly delivered. His co stars are okay, not exactly memorable but not how-did-they-get-the-part bad. What I did find enjoyable was the basic story of getting lost in the depths of the earth, finding all kinds of weird things there and the struggle to escape. I particularly liked the crazy flying fish scene and imagine that it would have been cool to watch in 3-D. The dialogue is lacking but the thrills make up for it.
