Overrated and overhyped
I don't have all the words right now but this film is a work of art.
Excellent, Without a doubt!!
A different way of telling a story
I'm never sure what people want from movies. Even more so, I'm not sure what they want from science fiction movies. Maybe they don't understand that its science FICTION, meaning that it doesn't need to make scientific sense. It's fiction, people. Fiction. SPOILER ALERTThat was for the people who didn't bother reading the plot synopsis. The movie has a great cast, some innovative casting (Academy Award winner, anyone?) and it established Aaron Eckhart as a real star of sci-fi. Having Stanley Tucci in the film was also good, as was Bruce Greenwood, who adds to any movie he's in. The contention of the movie is a good science fiction one and was handled very well. The story line was good as well, as were the special effects, which are crucial in a modern movie of this type. I really liked it (here it comes..) ON A MOVIE SCREEN. If you're reviewing this film on the basis of having seen it on a device or on TV, you really haven't seen it, any more than saying you've seen a postage stamp of the Mona Lisa and can thus critique the work. I really wish IMDB would make reviewers state how they watched the movie in their reviews, because like many films, this one was good in the proper format - on a screen. I can't judge how it'd be on a 4 inch screen or on TV.
I dont care if it is scientifically accurate or not. i still loved it!!!
The only way to save Earth from catastrophe is to drill down to the core and set it spinning again.Strangely enough, the worst part of this film is the part about them drilling into the core. Or, in other words, the entire second half. The practicality of it is so nonsensical that it makes "Armageddon" look plausible.However, the first half is quite good. Aaron Eckhart is wonderful and a convincing scientist. The discussions of theoretical matters is quite interesting. I did not realize, for example, that the core of the earth is as big as Mars! (Yes, it's true.) The problem only really starts when these theories get tested in a silly way.
While some may pan this one for being campy, I disagree. If, as some have said the deleted scenes would have added more depth to the characters, by all means, offer a directors cut, or a version WITH the deleted scenes. Aaron Eckhart & Hilary Swank, and the entire cast should be given their due. While the vehicle being able to bore thru solid earth may seem far-fetched by today's standards, so was the "earth is flat" over five hundred years ago. Great entertainment, and a little faster moving than "Passengers".
