A hunch and the defunding of his lab prompt geology professor Trevor Anderson (Brendan Fraser)

-- whose outrageous theories have made him a laughingstock in academia -- to set off for Iceland in search of a portal to Earth's core. With his sullen teenage nephew (Josh Hutcherson)

in tow and a fetching mountaineer (Anita Briem)

as a guide, Anderson finds a passageway leading to a vast primordial world at the center of the planet.
2008 PG 92 minutes
3.5 Stars! A good show with some great effects. A little cheesy at times. LOVED the special features...lots of great history!
