    I enjoyed the adventure of this Jules Vernne story, but the speciial effects, CGI whatever you call them were really poorly done. Must of been a made-for TV movie since it looked so cheeply done. Some scenes were really comical too, like some of the fight scenes were more like you'd see in a Three Stooges film. So, for those reasons I am giving this movie only 2 stars.

    Too bad, too, as it did have the possibility of being a fairly good and interesting movie. But, so boring that I turned it off after about 40 min. of it. I agree with other reviews about it being targeted to the juvenile audience.

    Yes   |   No

    Pretty bad, even for kids. I liked the version made in the 1960's better.

    Yes   |   No
