Based on Jules Verne's nineteenth century novel of the same name, the film is a standout adventure saga and is considered one of the most entertaining adaptations in the science fiction genre.  The film follows a Scottish professor, Oliver Lindenbrook, who accidentally discovers a map of sorts with directions on how to reach the center of the Earth through an Icelandic crater.  When the professor looks to a colleague to verify his discovery, the colleague becomes a rival and the two engage in a race to see who will reach the center of the Earth first.  The Lindenbrook Expedition finds a vast world underneath the surface of the Earth, including a lost city, a giant mushroom forest, and a huge underground ocean.  The team is also confronted by dangerous prehistoric monsters as well as the rival expedition.

NOTHING better has ever been duplicated, even though NO CG here! It's plot and character development with great performances, creating "suspended disbelief!"

This was one of my favorites as a child. It has everything one could ask for. Besides the excellent cast and acting, it's a timeless story that is filled with vivid imagination. I bought this movie to show my daughter (5) and she loved it as well.
