Journey to the Centre of the Earth (French: Voyage au centre de la Terre), also translated as A Journey to the Interior of the Earth, is a classic 1864 science fiction novel by Jules Verne. The story involves a German professor (Otto Lidenbrock in the original French,[1] Professor Von Hardwigg in the most common English translation[2]) who believes there are volcanic tubes going toward the center of the Earth. He, his nephew Axel, and their guide Hans encounter many adventures, including prehistoric animals and natural hazards, eventually coming to the surface again in southern Italy. The living organisms they meet reflect geological time; just as the rock layers become older and older the deeper they travel, the animals become more and more ancient the closer the characters approach the center.
From a scientific point of view, this story has not aged quite as well as other Verne stories, since most of his ideas about what the interior of the Earth contains have since been proven wrong. However, a redeeming point to the story is Verne's own belief, told within the novel from the viewpoint of a character, that the inside of the Earth does indeed differ from that which the characters encounter. One of Verne's main ideas with his stories was also to educate the readers, and by placing the different extinct creatures the characters meet in their correct geological era, he is able to show how the world looked a long time ago, stretching from the ice age to the dinosaurs.
The book was inspired by Charles Lyell's Geological Evidences of the Antiquity of Man of 1863. By that time geologists had abandoned a literal biblical account of Earth's development and it was generally thought that the end of the last glacial period marked the first appearance of humanity, but Lyell drew on new findings to put the origin of human beings much further back in the deep geological past. Lyell's book also influenced Louis Figuier's 1867 second edition of La Terre avant le déluge which included dramatic illustrations of savage men and women wearing animal skins and wielding stone axes, in place of the Garden of Eden shown in the 1863 edition.[3]

[edit] Plot
The story begins on Sunday 24 May 1863, in the Lidenbrock house in Hamburg, with Professor Lidenbrock rushing home to peruse his latest purchase, an original runic manuscript of an Icelandic saga written by Snorri Sturluson. While looking through the book, Lidenbrock and his nephew Axel find a coded note written in runic script. (This is a first indication of Verne's love for cryptology. Coded, cryptic or incomplete messages as a plot device will continue to appear in many of his works and in each case Verne goes a long way to explain not only the code used but also the mechanisms used to retrieve the original text.) Lidenbrock and Axel translate the runic characters into Latin letters, revealing a message written in a seemingly bizarre code. Lidenbrock attempts a decipherment, deducing the message to be a kind of transposition cipher; but his results are as meaningless as the original.
Professor Lidenbrock decides to lock everyone in the house and force himself and the others (Axel, and the maid, Martha) to go without food until he cracks the code. Axel discovers the answer when fanning himself with the deciphered text: Lidenbrock's decipherment was correct, and only needs to be read backwards to reveal sentences written in rough Latin.[4] Axel decides to keep the secret hidden from Professor Lidenbrock, but after two days without food, he cannot stand the hunger and reveals the secret to his uncle. Lidenbrock translates the note, which is revealed to be a medieval note written by the (fictional) Icelandic alchemist Arne Saknussemm, who claims to have discovered a passage to the centre of the Earth via Snæfellsjökull in Iceland. The deciphered message reads:
The Runic cryptogram“ In Snefflls [sic] Iokulis kraterem kem delibat umbra Skartaris Iulii intra kalendas deskende, audas uiator, te [sic] terrestre kentrum attinges. Kod feki. Arne Saknussemm. ”
In slightly better Latin, with errors amended:
“ In Sneffels Joculis craterem, quem delibat umbra Scartaris, Julii intra kalendas descende, audax viator, et terrestre centrum attinges; quod feci. Arne Saknussemm ”
which, when translated into English, reads:
“ Descend, bold traveler, into the crater of Snæfellsjökull, which the shadow of Scartaris touches (lit: tastes) before the Kalends of July, and you will attain the centre of the earth; which I have done. Arne Saknussemm ”
Snæfellsjökull.Professor Lidenbrock is a man of astonishing impatience, and departs for Iceland immediately, taking his reluctant nephew with him. Axel repeatedly tries to reason with him, explaining his fears of descending into a volcano and putting forward various scientific theories as to why the journey is impossible, but fails to make Professor Lidenbrock see his point of view. After a rapid journey via Lübeck and Copenhagen, they arrive in Reykjavík, where the two procure the services of Hans Bjelke (a Danish-speaking Icelander eiderdown hunter) as their guide, and travel overland to the base of the volcano. In late June they reach the volcano, which has three craters. According to Saknussemm's message, the passage to the centre of the Earth is through the one crater that is touched by the shadow of a nearby mountain peak at noon. However, the text also states that this is only true during the last days of June. During the next few days, with July rapidly approaching, the weather is too cloudy for any shadows. Axel silently rejoices, hoping this will force his uncle to give up the project and return home. On the last day, though, the sun comes out and the mountain peak shows the correct crater to take.
The travelers discover a giant cave filled with prehistoric mushrooms.After descending into this crater, the three travelers set off into the bowels of the Earth, encountering many strange phenomena and great dangers, including a chamber filled with combustible gas, and steep-sided wells around the "path". After taking a wrong turn, they run out of water and Axel almost dies, but Hans taps into a neighboring subterranean river. Lidenbrock and Axel name the resulting stream the "Hansbach" in his honor and the three are saved. At another point, Axel becomes separated from the others and is lost several miles from them. Luckily, a strange acoustic phenomenon allows him to communicate with them from some miles away, and they are soon reunited. After descending many miles, following the course of the Hansbach, they reach an unimaginably vast cavern. This underground world is lit by electrically charged gas at the ceiling, and is filled with a very deep subterranean ocean, surrounded by a rocky coastline covered in petrified trees and giant mushrooms. The travelers build a raft out of trees and set sail. The Professor names this sea as the Lidenbrock Sea. Whilst on the water, they see several prehistoric creatures such as a giant Ichthyosaurus, which fights with a Plesiosaurus and wins. After the battle between the monsters, the party comes across an island with a huge geyser, which Lidenbrock names "Axel Island". A lightning storm again threatens to destroy the raft and its passengers, but instead throws them onto the coastline. This part of the coast, Axel discovers, is alive with prehistoric plant and animal life forms, including giant insects and a herd of mastodons. On a beach covered with bones, Axel discovers an oversized human skull. Axel and Lidenbrock venture some way into the prehistoric forest, where Professor Lidenbrock points out, in a shaky voice, a prehistoric human, more than twelve feet in height, leaning against a tree and watching a herd of mastodons. Axel cannot be sure if he has really seen the man or not, and he and Professor Lidenbrock debate whether or not a proto-human civilization actually exists so far underground. The three wonder if the creature is a man-like ape, or an ape-like man. The sighting of the creature is considered the scariest part of the story, and the explorers decide that it is better not to alert it to their presence as they fear it may be hostile.
The travelers continue to explore the coastline, and find a passageway marked by Saknussemm as the way ahead. However, it is blocked by what appears to be a recent cave-in and the three despair at being unable to hack their way through the granite wall. The adventurers plan to blast the rock with gun cotton and paddle out to sea to escape the blast. Upon executing the plan, however, they discover that behind the rockfall was a seemingly bottomless pit, not a passage to the center of the earth. The travelers are swept away as the sea rushes into the large open gap in the ground. After spending hours being swept along at lightning speeds by the water, the raft ends up inside a large chimney filling with water and magma. Terrified, the three are rushed upwards, through stifling heat, and are ejected onto the surface from a side-vent of a volcano. When they regain consciousness, they discover that they have been thrown out of Stromboli, at the southern tip of Italy. They return to Hamburg to great acclaim — Professor Lidenbrock is hailed as one of the great scientists of history, Axel marries his sweetheart Gräuben, and Hans eventually returns to his peaceful life in Iceland. The Professor has some regret that their journey was cut short.
At the very end of the book, Axel and Lidenbrock realize why their compass was behaving strangely after their journey on the raft. They realize that the needle was pointing the wrong way after being struck by an electric fireball which nearly destroyed the wooden raft.

Journey to the Center of the Earth
There are many myths and legends attendant to a belief by some through the centuries that the earth contains a natural hollow at its center,and that in this hollow exists another world domain,populated with human or human-like beings living in a Utopian fashion.The vision of the legendary "Shamballah" is one such version of this concept.It was widely publicized through esoteric circles in the past that Admiral Byrd briefly flew into the rim of the inner earth portal at the South Pole in the early part of the 20th century.It was said that he filmed what he saw from the aircraft...a lush vegetation with what appeared to be mammoths grazing on the flora.This silent and very primitive film was shown in theaters around the United States for a short period before the U.S.government put a stop to it.A few people who saw the film at that time were interviewed in the 1950's before their deaths.Whether or not all this actually happened,I do not know.
A little over 30 years ago I began to have my own experiences with the inner earth...or so I believed (and still do).I experienced vivid "tours" of the Interior in my mind,which certainly could have been imagination.However,at the same time I was also receiving cosmic sciences and other akashic information that was being validated in many different ways.Several scientists (two of whom had been prot茅g茅es of Einstein) were quite interested in the science I was receiving.I mention this,as since the "inner earth" experiences were happening concurrent with my adventures in science,it would seem to lend some credibility to the former.
In 1980,I began a quarterly publication which I titled "The Source." It began as strictly on the inner earth,but after a few years expanded out from that,and in 1989,became "Temple Doors," which proceeded into 1999.
It is my desire with this inner earth addition to the "Earth Chronicles" section of SPIRIT MYTHOS,to introduce my akashic perspective on the interior domain of this planet and its inhabitants.I stress (as I do with all of my work) that this is my perception...my personal insight into the akashic of the earth.
First,in order to understand what I am perceiving as "inner earth," I present the following.According to my insights,we are constantly moving through not only space but also time and dimension.When we pick up our fork or walk from the couch to the kitchen,we are changing our time and dimensional zones to some degree.This change for such a small movement is very,very little.Not being a mathematician,I am unable to give you the real fractions on it,but it is so minute as to effect only a slight adjustment in 1% of the rotation of an atom!However,as tiny as that might be,"little" can be powerful when it comes to shifting perception and thus reality.When we travel from New York to Cairo,we create a greater time and dimensional shift (and I am not addressing the change of established time zones).It is still minute,but it does affect our perceptions.I am sure you have noticed this in taking long-distance journeys,but perhaps thought it was only jet lag and adjusting to another cultural lifestyle around you.Certainly these are contributing factors,but according to my understanding,these additional factors are actually distracting you from the true impact the time / dimensional shift is having on your biological system.Astronauts experience this with even greater impact...especially in the days of the moon trips.
Now let us look at a journey to the inner hollow of this planet with the same perception.The north and south poles of the planet form a vortex portal to the Interior.However,this vortex is highly magnetic and warped at the poles of the earth,and not suited for a simple stroll through the door,so to speak.Markers by surface earth explorers have been placed at the "exact point" of "North" and "South" in these regions,proclaiming these points as the actual poles.Yet from my view of things,our whole planet...our whole UNIVERSE and ALL it's spheres are whorls of energy interacting in various rotations and alignments to form what we experience as "solid matter." In this context,the highly magnetic "poles" warp the energies of our planet along the central axis of the magnetic shell we choose to experience as "matter." When we walk on or fly over the magnetic poles of our planet we are really just going around the edges of the magnetic whorl / vortex.In order to ENTER it we must "catch the wave" just right,as Admiral Byrd may have inadvertently done in the early 20th century.
What happens if we do?Suppose you are flying in a plane near the lip of the vortex and you find a thread into the opening.Obviously the odds of doing this accidentally are slim,but apparently (if the Byrd story is true) not non-existent.What greets you...munching mastodons?Not necessarily.First of all,just moving inside the lip of the vortex does not place you into the hollow earth.At this very outer region of entry you would experience (as I believe Byrd might have done) a moving field of space / time through which you could see and experience either the past or the future of this planet.If you knew how to follow the space / time thread through the lip of the vortex (as do ultra and inner terrestrial merkabah / vehicles) you would eventually move through the warp zone and into the hollow earth.Here you would find a world that is still slightly removed dimensionally from our own,as it is not only a greater distance than from the couch to the kitchen,but it is also in a much denser and more active magnetic zone (or zones within zones),which amps the whole space / time / dimensional shift.
An interesting article on time anomolies on the Pravada website
There are other ways to reach the Interior...through caverns,leading to partially natural,partially man-made tunnels.Yet the same shift would take place for individuals making such a difficult journey.Without an inner earth guide,they would probably perish by cellular degeneration as they moved through erratic magnetic zones.I believe that with "help" there have been surface earth persons who have traveled this route to the Interior successfully in the past.
There are many cavern cities and communities "on the way down," yet when the Interior is reached,one is presented with a really incredibly beautiful and very diverse world.The dramatic diversity stems primarily from the various and strong magnetic anomalies caused by the interior "sun" at the inner world center,which contains a very specific pulsating magnetic field which effects the environment around it.This lends to the inner world the pseudo-qualities of the earth rotating around its solar sun.There are also quite a lot of differences as well.One may go 5 miles from a dense lush,tropical forest and arrive quite suddenly (almost like walking through a wall) inside a topsy-turvy vortex of ice crystal skies over a barren,perma-frosted desert.
Time /space / dimension is very loose in the Interior.There are regions that move so freely back and forth through time,they are not inhabited,except by those who specifically work with and in those "time-threading" zones.
In conclusion - and I stress this - physically traveling to into the inner earth as a goal in life is not something I wish to encourage.Being PRESENT in this world we live in is far more important.Being aware that many realms compose the ONE of earthly experience is my message with the whole of SPIRIT MYTHOS.This awareness may help individuals to realize that ALL these dimensions are also within them.There is no need to go outside the self to find what you are seeking.In fact I do not believe it can be found that way.Being in the present moment is where they all come together for each of us and for the world as a collective whole.
In creating this portion of the Spirit Mythos Earth Chronicles,I will be utilizing my digital art and perceptions to reveal this inner world through my akashic lens.I will continue to add to this section and post these updates on the Spirit Mythos Updates list.

Remove a star from the rating if you take this Journey without wearing 3-D glasses. That's where the real fun comes in. Otherwise you have a family-friendly retelling of Jules Verne's 1864 novel (best remembered is the 1959 movie with an overqualified James Mason, a shirtless Pat Boone and a gorgeous Arlene Dahl) in a romp that is lazily content to connect the dots instead of breaking new ground. Brendan Fraser is Indiana Jones stalwart and goofily charming as Trevor Anderson, a science prof who retraces the steps of his brother, who died searching for the center of the earth. With his 13-year-old nephew (Josh Hutcherson) in tow, along with a Icelandic babe (Anita Briem) in the role of guide, Trevor finds his way by carrying a copy of the book Verne wrote 144 years ago (score one for literary merit). In 2-D, it's all achingly familiar. In 3-D, the story comes alive, despite the tacky sets and gimmicks. Put on those glasses and you get toothpaste spat in your face, a T-Rex breathing up your nostrils, and what may be the longest fall in movie history. I don't know if 3-D could improve all movies (nothing could make The Love Guru funny) but it sure works here.

What makes for a successful family film? Is it memorable characters, a wealth of emotion and a unique premise? Or is it simply putting enough action on screen to make sure the adults don't get bored and the kiddies don't fall asleep? Journey to the Center of the Earth, which opens today in theaters everywhere, banks on the latter. The 92-minute film moves at a brisk pace, barely stopping for exposition as the characters hustle through a variety of different adventures thousands of miles beneath the Earth's surface. The 3-D element and B-list cast only add to the theme park feel of the entire enterprise, but that's not necessarily a bad thing. Journey to the Center of the Earth may not be concerned with a deep story and intriguing character development, but it's quite the ride nonetheless.
Instead of taking its story from the novel by Jules Verne, this latest film adaptation weaves the book into the plot in a more interesting way. Trevor (Brendan Fraser) is a geeky scientist whose brother disappeared years ago while trying to find a route to the center of the Earth. When he finds a copy of Verne's novel that also contains his brother's notes, he realizes that the famed author may have been writing fact instead of fiction. Determined to find a volcanic tube that leads to the planet's core, Trevor takes his nephew Sean (Josh Hutcherson) to Iceland, where they team up with a gorgeous guide named Hannah (Anita Briem). After a long fall sends them plummeting below the Earth's surface, the trio find a land that contains a beautiful ocean, magnetic rocks, man-eating plants, an angry Tyrannosaurus Rex, and other strange wonders.
Much like last year's Beowulf, the best reason to see Journey to the Center of the Earth is to experience the 3-D. The film is being released in the format on about 1,500 screens, and it's definitely worth seeking out a theater that's equipped with the technology. After the brief setup the film is jam-packed with CGI, and the experience is much more effective when birds, yo-yos, flashlights and monsters are flying out of the screen. The format works perfectly for this type of film, which is more concerned with providing a thrill ride anything of substance.
With visual effects whiz Eric Brevig making his feature directorial debut, it's no surprise that the CGI is impressive. Where the movie falters is with its story and characters, which are about two dimensions short of being in 3-D. The script devolves into a series of action set-pieces after the first twenty minutes, only stopping for brief moments thereafter to develop an afterthought of a romance and to deal with the mystery of Trevor's missing brother. Brevig keeps things moving a bit too quickly, and the result is a movie that has all the weight of cotton candy.
While the film offers little to chew on, there's no denying that some of the adventurous antics on screen are tons of fun. A dangerous mine car ride straight out of Indiana Jones and the Temple of Doom provides some excitement, as does a scene where Trevor and Sean try to out run a T-Rex. However, the best sequence in the movie involves Sean jumping across a series of floating magnetic rocks that are suspended in mid-air. Though similar to moments in hundreds of video games, the director manages to elicit giddy thrills with the high-flying stunts. With each of these set-pieces coming one after the other and numerous things jumping at you from the screen, it's impossible to get bored during the film's short running time.
The performances are perfectly serviceable considering that the characters have no depth. Fraser has made a career out of mugging while fleeing CGI monstrosities, and he acquits himself well here. Hutcherson is a stand out as the slightly troubled, awestruck teen, and he makes sure his character never falls into the trap of being shrill and annoying. They make a believable team, though Anita Briem barely registers as the supposedly feisty Hannah. She's the one actor in the film who can't breathe additional life into her cardboard character.
If you see Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3-D, it makes for an entertaining romp that will enthrall kids and won't leave adults feeling insulted. It may be a piece of completely forgettable fluff, but at least it provides some fleeting thrills before the end credits roll.

Characters wave tape measures at the screen for no reason other than to make an audience bob and weave. Goofy Brendan Fraser spits toothpaste in our general direction. Fanged fish leap into our virtual laps. When a yo-yo springs from Josh Hutcherson's hands, we jump in our seats.
It's recommended you journey to a theater with 3-D capabilities if you're taking the family to see Journey. Though available everywhere in the standard, everyday, two-dimensional presentation (read: flat as a board and about as interesting), Journey makes excellent use of modern 3-D technology and actually harkens back to campy science-fiction of the 1950s.
Geologist Trevor Anderson (Fraser) and his nephew Sean (Hutcherson) follow clues left in a tattered copy of Jules Verne's novel Journey to the Center of the Earth that they hope will lead them to Sean's missing father, Max (Jean Michael Pare). Their mission transports them to Iceland, where adorable mountain climber Hannah (Anita Briem) pilots them to a volcanic tube that carries them... well, you've read the title, so you get the idea.
Journey makes about as much sense as a National Treasure film and moves as rapidly. For a film that gleefully apes Steven Spielberg -- with rampaging dinosaurs, hurtling mine cars, and a distracting father-son complex -- Journey actually equals this summer's Indiana Jones sequel on the assembly line of escalating dangers.
The rattling calamity is obvious, sure, but surprisingly effective. On normal screens, though, Journey will lose its added visual dimension (pun intended), and subtract most of its fun.

Like any conscientious movie critic, I do what I can to avoid clichés, and since I am only human I don’t always succeed. But I have long vowed never to stoop to what I regard as the lowest kind of hackery, which is to describe a motion picture as a thrill ride, a heckofa ride or any other kind of ride.
So what am I supposed to do about “Journey to the Center of the Earth,” a new movie that shares its name with a beloved Jules Verne novel, copies of which occasionally appear on screen? On their way to the titular destination, the three main characters — a geologist (Brendan Fraser), his young nephew (Josh Hutcherson) and an Icelandic mountain guide (Anita Briem) — speed down steeply inclined tracks in wheeled cars, rather like a roller coaster. A bit later, as they fly through the subterranean air, one of them predicts that they will descend into something “just like a water slide.” Near the end, after they have parasailed, fled from beasts and surfed on magnetic rocks, they whiz down a green hillside on a sled improvised from the jawbone of a dinosaur. If this movie is not a ride, then what is it?
One thing it may not be, quite, is a movie. The 3-D technology, which you experience (in the theaters where it’s available) through spiffy gray-tinted glasses, does provide a few “Wow!,” “Eww!” and “Yikes!” moments, though the most impressive of them are also the least spectacular, as when Mr. Hutcherson swings a yo-yo or Mr. Fraser, after brushing his teeth, spits into the sink. Otherwise the effect messes with your ability to see clearly what is in the frame, so that the actors look like cutouts arranged in a snow globe.
Not that they have much dimension to work with, since the script, by Michael Weiss, Jennifer Flackett and Mark Levin, is as functional as the direction, by Eric Brevig, is fussy. The geologist, whose brother vanished trying to prove his Vernean hypothesis, takes the brother’s adolescent son to Iceland, where they meet the mountain guide, whose father also vanished into the center of the Earth. A lot of scientifically preposterous, mildly diverting stuff happens down there, and then, just like that, the ride is over.

For decades theme parks have made attractions out of 3D movies-- Universal's Terminator 3D, or MGM's Muppets 3D-- so it makes sense that the first big live-action 3D movie of the current 3D craze feels like a theme park attraction. The journey of Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D feels like a visit to Frontierland, with boat rides, mine carts, and one heck of a log flume. Experiencing it all in glorious 3D ups the ante-- it'll be a brave 8-year-old who never finds his palms sweating.
Journey 3D is predictable, cheesy and not even a little edgy, but it's also as much fun as you're likely to have in a PG movie this summer. A retelling of Jules Verne's original story that takes the 19th-century novel as fact, the movie is a dream come true for anyone who's every imagined stepping through the wardrobe or riding the Hogwarts Express. If the lead characters are a little bland and unoriginal, it's all the better for us to put ourselves in their spelunking shoes.
Brendan Fraser stars, however improbably, as geology professor Trevor. His brother Max disappeared years earlier while researching "volcanic tubes," essentially express lanes to the center of the earth. Trevor has continued Max's research and is in danger of losing his department as a result, but during one fateful weekend visit from Max's son Sean (Josh Hutcherson), the numbers of his research align and inspire Trevor to embark again on Max's old expedition. Along the way Trevor and Sean meet up with an old scientist's daughter in Iceland (Anita Briem), and the three trek up a mountain to find one of Trevor's geologic sensors. But, of course, it's only a few wrong steps before the journey heads way, way down below.
Over the course of the intra-terrestrial adventure, there's some uncle-nephew bonding and a rote romance. But it's all reasonably interspersed among thrilling scenes of action, the better ones including jumping, flesh-eating shark that attack a raft, a rickety mine cart/roller coaster, and a T-Rex that, for whatever reason, lives happily in the earth's molten core. Each of the scenes make copious use of CGI, but with the 3D glasses and the highly unrealistic setting, it's not as egregious as it was in, say, the newest Indiana Jones.
And the 3D is used for all kinds of fun gags, like a yo-yo flying at the audience's face, or fish snapping their teeth seemingly inches away. But it also effectively draws the audience into the story in a way a normal movie this predictable couldn't manage. Moments that might otherwise be groan-inducing become much-needed comfort or comic relief for an audience that's as close to part of the action as they can get.
The chef flaw of Journey 3D is in how long it takes to get going, and how much time is dedicated to nonsense science explanations of phenomena the audience is perfectly willing to accept as is. But luckily the science talk is abandoned as soon as the trio begins its journey, and the characters spend most of their time shouting things like "Watch out!" and "Find the geyser!"
You could accuse Journey of being crudely commercial, hitting all the audience-pleasing beats without too much creativity in the mix. But that would be denying the sheer pleasure of going through an experience with a predetermined ending-- like any given romantic comedy, or, say, a roller coaster. Strap on your 3D glasses, keep your hands and arms inside the seats, and enjoy the ride.

Families looking for something to while away summer could do a lot worse than make this particular trip to the earth's core. It's the latest of many versions of Jules Verne's evergreen action yarn.
Everyone from Pat Boone in 1959 to odd comic Emo Philips thirty years later have made the trip… but this one is "the first live-action, narrative motion picture to be shot in digital 3D."
What that basically means is that you get everything from a cockroach's feelers waving over an audience of squealing ankle biters to a foul-fanged piranha leaping over their ducking heads. It's great.
Brendan Fraser - an actor seldom out of khaki - is the amiable college geophysicist who follows in the footsteps of his missing explorer brother…and finds himself tumbling down a volcanic tube in Iceland.
Joining him hurtling towards the earth’s core are his cocky nephew Sean (Bridge To Terabithia’s Hutcherson) and nubile mountain guide Hannah (Briem).
Miraculously landing safely with a big splash in a prehistoric pond, they find themselves in a surreal universe where mushrooms grow twenty feet tall, subterranean seas lap on sandy shores and dinosaurs are on the prowl despite having no apparent sources of food.
But let’s not get too pedantic. Just enjoy it for what it is – a Saturday morning pictures yarn with a bigger budget and a fancy 3D camera borrowed from James “Titanic” Cameron.
OK it’s a commercial template for a theme park ride…but it's also a thrillingly enjoyable action caper that makes joyous use of the clever-dick technology available to it.
First-time director Eric Brevig, who cut his teeth as a special effects supremo on Total Recall and Pearl Harbor, knows his craft and keeps the action simple and effective.
Highpoints include Sean gingerly hopping across a chasm on shifting stepping stones held in place by a magnetic force, a drooling T-Rex and the salty crossing of a ocean containing writhing serpents.
What helps is the likeable cast. Fraser is an affable old hand at this sort of thing, Hutcherson is one of the few American teens you don’t want to slap and Briern acquits herself well in her first major role.
It’s great, family fun. Go the journey.

A film that shares the same name with science fiction writer Jules Verne's book tries to share the same theme of his writing style. Verne wrote with inspiration as you actually thought what he wrote was real and NOT science fiction.
And that's what great movies are about. We enter a world and we believe everything that is happening.
So Journey to the Center of the Earth takes the name of the novel but doesn't take the books inspiration. For 90 minutes, I felt like I was on a amusement park ride that I wanted to get
off 15 minutes in. I like riding roller coasters with the best of them, but I get sick of them after the fourth time around. Sometimes lineups are good and blessings in disguise. It gives you time to talk about the last ride and prepare for the new one. Journey doesn't offer that, which is too bad.
I was given my 3D glasses and prepared myself for an interesting time. I know that this is really the future in film, especially in action films like these. But they are at their elementary steps in the process as they really don't seem to know yet what to do with 3D. Either it gets too busy or it's not busy enough. They haven't found that balance yet. Perhaps James Cameron's 3D Avator, coming out next summer will be the real start to movies to come. Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3D definitely isn't worth the extra price in admission. So please don't bother.
This is a film filled with cliche after cliche. It's actually offensive in a way as you can only take so much. There isn't much for special effects wizard turned director Eric Brevig to work with, but even his direction is as basic as you can get.
So it makes me wonder if they were paying too much attention on the 3D stuff than the actual direction and story. After all, Cameron has spent almost 3 years and going on Avator. The creative team of Journey of the Center of the Earth spent a faction of that time.
It's a new way to make a film, which I'm all for as we need some flare to the film watch experience. But the bottom line always is an entertaining story where they take you into their world and you're glad to follow them. Having a good story is the key before anything else and it seemed that they forgot that.
And I don't think we need to see anymore dinosaurs in movies anymore.
