Synopsis

Geophysicist Dr. Josh Keyes (Aaron Eckhart, Erin Brockovich) has made a terrifying discovery: the Earth's inner core has stopped rotating. Now the planet's electromagnetic field is deteriorating and within months, Earth will be destroyed. One hope exists: to send an elite team of scientists in a subterranean vessel to the center on the Earth. As mankind's fate hangs in the balance, the scientists and the ship's crew must do the unthinkable - detonate a nuclear device to reactivate the Earth's core.

obviously a low budget movie, but in my opinion, an excellent one!! well worth a watch for anyone who loves "Armageddon" style movies!

never really seen this film advertised anywhere but thought i'd give it a watch. Really enjoyed it as i'm interested in the planet ans that sort of stuff. I'd say a bit like armageddon really but without the big stars but equally on a par with it. Enjoy! :-)

Nothing special, but great value

At times the acting is terrible, compounded by a fairly poor script. This is one of those films that relies on effects and to be honest for the age of the film they are fairly good. This film is by no means anything special but given the .99p price, I certainly felt like I had value, just dont expect to be blown away.

Absolutley incredible

This film is one of the best films I have ever seen. I was riveted to my seat the whole way through and could not tell what was coming next. The acting and special effects are out of this world. I'm not exaggerating. Watch it and see for yourself. Even my wife who normally hates disaster movies loved it.
Seriously this is unbelievably bad. It's appalling, It's shockingly incredulous. Don't bother.

I enjoyed this film, but i found myself yelling at the screen, telling them to do things that were later on introduced in the film. It was really quite predictable. But still, a good watch.

a waste of time

Oh lord – and that is just putting it across kindly. If you are not worried about logic and don’t really want to think, then give this film a try otherwise, if you like to think like me, stay clear of this film. Not only is it boring but logistically I’m not even sure it is possible to go down to the centre of the Earth to “restart” it like this film does. I know anything can happen in Hollywood but the plot just seems too far-fetched to even believe in and I think they got the science wrong. There are some silly moments which are a complete nonsense, some terrible acting that did not make me sympathize with any of the main characters whatsoever and stereotypical characters that are so by the book that you have already read it. There wasn’t even one moment where I was caught up in the plot and it lacks substance for me to care. The ending sums up this film as a silly waste of time.
