Entertainment Reviews:
Rating: 3/4 --
Fun for the whole family, and—instead of the 2008 3-D version's Brendan Fraser—offers James freakin' Mason, who can pull off urbane and befuddled at the same time. [Blu-ray]

The best value in nonsense for a very long time.

The Spectator
Rating: B+ --
By standards of the time, the special effects of Hollywood's first (but not the only) version of Jules Verne's sci-fi classic were good and nominated for Oscars; they lost out to Ben-Hur, which swept all the awards.

There's a rolling-boulder scene that almost certainly inspired Spielberg and Lucas when they initially dreamed up Raiders of the Lost Ark, and Peter Ronson's lovable lunk Hans seems like a live-action template of Frozen's Kristoff.

Rating: 4/5 --
It can't help but delight fans of the genre, and Mason and Dahl's wonderful rapport provides the finishing touch.

Eye for Film
It's one of the very best Hollywood adventure movies, with lots of monsters, underground oceans, sinister villains, and touches which would have delighted Jules Verne himself.

Rating: 9/10 --
It may well be second to KING KONG (1933) as the film I have seen the greatest number of times.
