MusicChat It's complicated... I really like the directing, acting and writing but, there are issues with the way it's shot that I just can't deny. As much as I love the storytelling and the fantastic performance but, there are also certain scenes that didn't need to exist.

KnotStronger This is a must-see and one of the best documentaries - and films - of this year.

Humaira Grant It’s not bad or unwatchable but despite the amplitude of the spectacle, the end result is underwhelming.

Calum Hutton It's a good bad... and worth a popcorn matinée. While it's easy to lament what could have been...

cdcrb If you saw the original from 1961 stay clear of this turkey. This movie is so bad that when they talk about the Bermuda triangle they describe it as being on the west coast near Bermuda. the acting is non existent and every cast member is really stupid. I must confess I didn't last to the end, so maybe the last hour got a lot better. I doubt it, though.

buddhasystem Not a great movie by any standard but not too bad either - by far - I'm saying this in the context of the modern movie industry where most of the product is just too painful to watch. So against such backdrop this was a nice piece of family-safe entertainment - yes entertainment indeed. Kids loved it, I sat through it with occasional interest. Acting wasn't that bad despite what has been said on this site.Yes it's not faithful to the book by Jules Verne but in a creative way. There is a even a reference to Barack Obama. Not necessary but not out of the way given the time travel angle that this movie has introduced into the story.Not the best, silly at times, but if you take it for what it was meant to be (a TV movie) it's a solid piece of work.

jokermtb-787-720009 I have to say I'm a bit surprised at the negative comments. Sure, the movie had a small budget, but the story line was a nice twist on what would be a dusty story had they followed the original book. I'm familiar with the JV story, but had never read nor seen any films on it. This version is an adaptation and updating of the original. Yeah, the acting was a bit clunky at times, but really, it wasn't that bad. I'd give the writers a bit of credit for trying to pad out their characters a little bit. Most stories of this type, and budget, never bother to do so. Stop trying to take this so seriously, and you'll enjoy this movie. If you want some good, mindless entertainment, you could do far worse.

jam145 If you are expecting to see a great adaptation that is faithful to the book by Jules Verne (as the title implies), do not watch this film.If you want to see the book by Jules Verne mashed up with time-travel elements from "Lost," but done on a shoestring budget and without any character development, do watch this film.I might have given it 4/10 except that is it that disrespectful to the classic novel and is almost unable to capture anything worthwhile from the book. Had they stuck to the original story instead of treating it as a stepping off point, the film would have been greatly improved. As it is, it's a b-movie with hokey SFX that is left this viewer greatly unsatisfied.
