Pros: action, humor, romance, old fashion values,

Pros: a classic

Cons: the effects look a bit dated today.

Review: One of the greatest pure adventure films that Hollywood ever made, 1959's Journey to the Center of the Earth, has become a true classic. Based on the novel of the same name by the legendary Jules Verne, it is a fairly faithful adaption of that highly...

Pros: Cinematography, Score, James Mason, Gertrude & Hans

Cons: Iguanas as Dinosaurs, Pat Boone Pop Tunes

Review: I was 9 years old the year the original version of Journey To The Center Of The Earth, (JTTCOTE), saw release. This adaption of fantastical French writer Jules Verne's 1864 novel by the same name, was nominated for 3 Academy Awards, and...

Pros: Bernard Herrman's music score; the amazing visuals

Cons: A few corny musical numbers and "funny" moments

The Bottom Line: I'd probably give JOURNEY 4.5 stars. It's one of the greatest of the old movies based on classic novels, and I'm sure most everyone would enjoy it.

Review: A Jules Verne story forms the basis for Henry Levin’s 1959 epic JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH and for once, a film version of a literary classic such as this does the original work some credit. Levin’s film, following a script from Charles Brackett...

Pros: Classic movie.

Cons: Corny in some parts.

The Bottom Line: You can't go wrong with Jules Vernes.
