Journey to the Center of the Earth


We just got back from seeing Journey to the Center of the Earth in 3D. It was fabulous!

I was first impressed with the quality of the glasses. When we saw NASCAR 3D, the glasses were 1st rate, but they had to be returned. The glasses for Journey were not your old cardboard and plastic. They were similar to cheap sunglasses and it really helped view the movie better. Plus you get to take them home to watch the 3D movies that you have there.

The movie itself was great. The actors did a great job, the script was not hokey and the special effects were good.

Though there are a few scenes that are slightly scary, the little girl next to me (approx. 5 yrs old) never seemed to mind. She kept me giggling as she continued to reach for the floating objects.

Overall, I would say that it was well worth the money. A real family film. The ending left an opening for a sequel which I hope that they make. I only wish that it had lasted longer. How many movies can you say that about?
