Rated: PG
Starring: Brendon Fraiser
The premise of this film is not the original book with the same name, but rather a scientist, a mountain guide and a teenage boy set out to prove that the land that is referenced in the original novel actually exists. It doesn't take long for them to find the portal to the center of the earth and the rest of the film is their adventure to return home.
Becky's rating: B+
We took Braylon (age 5) to this family film thinking it would be somewhere on his level. We weren't disappointed in the subject matter or content. However, I thought that since the film was made in 3-D that we would simply need to put on our glasses to experience the virtual action. Not so. In that I was disappointed. The story line was appropriate for even a 5 year old and I think easy enough for him to get the basic idea. It was entertaining enough for the grown ups and several times the audience was laughing out loud. My only criticism is that it was simple - Not a lot of set-up or plot. All adventure.
Bottom line: Perfect for kids and their parents age 5-12. Great family film opportunity.
