Journey to the Center of the Earth

The Halmi family's Midas touch is little more than fool's gold in this elaborate but ultimately juvenile retelling of the Jules Verne fantasy.

By Laura Fries

Laura Fries

• TV Review: ‘I’ll Have What Phil’s Having’ 9 years ago
• TV Review: Lifetime’s ‘If There Be Thorns,’ ‘Seeds of Yesterday’ 9 years ago
• TV Review: ‘House of Versace’ 11 years ago

The Halmi family’s Midas touch is little more than fool’s gold in this elaborate but ultimately juvenile retelling of the Jules Verne fantasy. Still, this descent into the bowels of the Earth is a step in the right direction for USA original movies, given the Hallmark name and talent attached to this project, and “Journey” should pull in big numbers, especially with preteen boys. With nothing strikingly new to offer, however, it’s a case of a network trying to get lightning to strike twice.

Like last year’s successful “Moby Dick,” adventure is the main sell for this pic, which is generally faithful to the original Verne narrative. Director George Miller’s production falters by mistaking macho ideals and visual stunts for substantive programming.

Pic starts out respectably enough with geologist Theodore Lytton (Treat Williams) hired by the wealthy Alice Hastings (Tushka Bergen) to find her husband, Casper, who disappeared seven years earlier during an expedition into a volcano in New Zealand. Fueled by the idea that they can return home with evidence that proves Darwin’s theory of evolution, Theodore enlists his recently engaged nephew Jonas (Jeremy London) to go with him. Jonas, reluctant and a bit of a hypochondriac, feels bound by duty to help his uncle.

Popular on Variety

Cannibals, thieves and seasickness are just some of the obstacles the adventurers face above ground. But with Alice and the gruff but wise McNiff (Hugh Keays-Byrne) along for the journey, the trip into Mount Ruapehu opens a whole new universe of wonders and dangers.

The second night of the mini-series finds the explorers enveloped in the politics of an underground world, now led by Casper (Bryan Brown). Theodore and Alice fight their attraction while Jonas has forgotten about his betrothed and has taken up with scantily clad native Ralna (Petra Yared).

Editor Harry Hitner keeps things moving at a crisp pace, especially in part one, but by part two, the initial curiosity factor has worn off and the story begins to drag. (It doesn’t help that Baum adds misplaced “tastes like chicken” humor to the script).

Also, as it turns out, underground women don’t need a lot of clothes and they tend to worship men. Second night contains more than one subplot dealing with the underground civilization’s notion of free love.

Williams approaches the role of Theodore with gusto and is the sole source of enthusiasm; he propels the cast. As Alice, Bergen gives some feminist spin on what has been played in the past as purely a love-interest role. London (Griffin on “Party of Five”) is once again put in the role of the heartthrob, and he carries it out accordingly without straining his acting skills. Keays-Byrne is a nice find as McNiff, offering real comic relief. Brown is the most ill-fitting cast member, offering a most uninspired performance as the egotistical Casper.

Special f/x are not used to maximum benefit: Scenery is breathtaking at times, too manufactured at others. The Sauroids, human-sized dinosaurs that stalk the group, look like menacing versions of the Sleestaks from Sid and Marty Krofft’s 1974 series “Land of the Lost.” Lackluster costumes and effects neutralize any element of horror or suspense.

Bruce Rowland composed a lively score for the pic, but the rest of the technical credits are uneven.

Boston, 1875. Geology and palaeontology professor Theodore Lytton is trying to find financing for an expedition to test his theories about the centre of the earth. With his nephew Jonas as assistant, he is earning money by fighting as a bare-knuckle boxer. They are approached by Alice Hastings who offers to fund Lytton’s expedition in order to find her husband Casper who has been missing for seven years. They travel to New Zealand where they venture through hostile Maori territory and into a series of caves. They travel so far down that they eventually come across an entire underground sea and a world inhabited by various species of dinosaur and prehistoric human races. Finally, they find Casper who has appointed himself teacher and benevolently rules over the human tribes. There they become caught up in conflict as the prehistoric humans try to defend themselves from attack by the evolved reptilian Sauroids.

Journey to the Center of the Earth is a tv mini-series from Hallmark Entertainment, the US-based subsidiary of the Hallmark family entertainment cable channel. Hallmark have produced a number of other genre movies and mini-series for television – see the bottom of the page for listing. The mini-series screened in two two-hour parts.

The mini-series is based on the novel Journey to the Center of the Earth (1864) by Jules Verne. The Jules Verne novel has been filmed a number of times – as Segundo de Chomon’s lost silent Journey to the Center of the Earth (1908); most famously as the lavish 20th Century Fox production Journey to the Center of the Earth (1959) with James Mason and Pat Boone; Juan Piquer Simon’s cheap The Fabulous Adventure at the Center of the Earth (1977); Cannon’s Journey to the Center of the Earth (1988), a problem-ridden modern updating cast with teenagers that was released only partly completed; the loosely related tv pilot Journey to the Center of the Earth (1993); and subsequent to this as WaldenMedia’s theatrically released Journey to the Center of the Earth 3D (2008) and The Asylum’s cheap Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008). Indeed, this was the first of two versions made by Hallmark who later returned to the story under their RHI subsidiary in a tv movie Journey to the Center of the Earth (2008) featuring Rick Schroeder and Peter Fonda.

Hallmark have co-produced this version of Journey to the Center of the Earth in conjunction with Australia’s Nine Network. While the mini-series headlines American actors like Treat Williams and Jeremy London, the majority of the cast are all Australian actors, including well-known names like Bryan Brown and Hugh Keays-Byrne, best known as Toecutter in Mad Max (1979) (who has magnificent presence and steals the show as a tough-as-nails Scotsman who joins the party). To counter popular confusion, director George Miller is not the other Australian director also named George Miller of Mad Max movies and Happy Feet (2006) fame but the lesser-known Australian George Miller who made films like The Man from Snowy River (1981), Les Patterson Saves the World (1987), The Neverending Story II: The Next Chapter (1990) and Attack of the Sabretooth (2005). The mini-series is scripted by Thomas Baum who has written a number of interesting genre films including Simon (1980), the fine The Sender (1982), The Manhattan Project (1986) and Vlad the Impaler (2000).

Thomas Baum’s script is reasonably faithful to the Jules Verne novel – perhaps not hugely but certainly more so than any other film

adaptation up to that point. Baum keeps the professor and nephew as the principal explorers (although adds several others to the party, notably a romantic interest). The story generally replicates most of what Jules Verne had on the page – the gas explosions, the dinosaurs, the underground ocean, the discovery of the prehistoric humans and the explorers’ escape on a raft via a geyser at the end. It should be noted that the mini-series also makes a number of substantial additions to Verne – most notably the entire last half of the mini-series involving Bryan Brown and the prehistoric humans and their rivalry with the lizard people (Verne by contrast had the explorers only view a single prehistoric human at a distance and never interact with them), as well as everything up to the initial descent, in particular the scenes with the professor also doubling as a bare knuckle pugilist.

Whereas Jules Verne has his explorers descending into the bowels of the Earth from a volcano in Iceland, this version of Journey to Center of the Earth relocates the story in New Zealand (where the Australian film crew have hopped across the Tasman to take advantage of the real locations, perhaps the only adaptation of the Journey to the Center of the Earth to actually do so). This naturally comes with references to Captain Cook, kiwis, earthquakes and sheep jokes. Although the surprise is that Maori culture is treated with reasonable respect and an attempt made to approximate the historical era of the Maori Wars that the mini-series falls into, as well as to cast various Maori actors and allow them to speak their own language. (In fact, these scenes seem to be taking Journey to the Center of the Earth 1999 in the direction of another Jules Verne novel In Search of the Castaways/Captain Grant’s Children (1868), which had a group of explorers arriving in New Zealand and being captured by Maori tribes).

Jules Verne’s Journey to the Center of the Earth is not a story that has dated well but the surprise is that the mini-series manages to do a good job of adapting it. The production team do an impeccable job of recreating the period Victoriana, while Thomas Baum’s script has done an excellent job of researching the culture, history and especially the geology the mini-series covers. Once underground, George Miller throws in the usual cliches of collapsing rock bridges and rolling boulders. Eventually we come to some wonderfully imaginative pieces – the arrival at the vast underground ocean with rock pillars reaching all the way to a cavernous ceiling, the flight of a herd of pterodactyls across the golden skies between the pillars, the journey across the ocean by raft, encounters with dinosaurs on a beach and then with a piercingly beautiful redhead girl (Petra Yared) who abruptly scuttles up a cliff face like a lizard, the pursuit of her through a forest of blue foliage, the arrival at the underground city, and the journey down a river on a raft surrounded by banks of trees in dazzling blue and autumnal colours.

Alas, Journey to the Center of the Earth 1999 ‘s great crime is that despite a magnificent and wondrous build-up in Part I, the second part loses it altogether. The moment we arrive at the prehistoric city, the mini-series falls back onto the cliches of the lost world genre. Thus we get lost cities, prehistoric civilisations, nasty lizard people and the missing white man eventually discovered as the self-appointed ‘teacher’ who lives amongst the tribe as their god/ruler. The sense of wonder created during the first half gradually dissipates into tired cliches and dramas concerning tribal rivalries that are drawn out far longer than they need be, as well as Jeremy London’s romantic attraction to Petra Yared and Treat Williams’ romantic rivalries with Bryan Brown over Tushka Bergen. Even Petra Yared’s lovely enigmatic prehistoric turns out to be no more than an awkward girl who looks all of about eighteen.

Journey to the Center of the Earth is a thrilling adventure movie that was released in 1999. This movie was produced by Hallmark Entertainment and directed by George Miller. The main cast includes Treat Williams, Jeremy London, Bryan Brown, Tushka Bergen, and Hugh Keays-Byrne.

Based on the classic book by Jules Verne, the movie tells the story of a group of adventurers who set out on an expedition to explore the depths of the earth. Our protagonist is a young man named Jonathan Brock (played by Jeremy London), who is a professor of geology. He has dedicated his life to deciphering a secret code left behind by Arne Saknussemm, a legendary explorer who had journeyed to the center of the earth centuries before.

When a rich benefactor named Theodore Lytton (played by Treat Williams) offers to fund Jonathan's expedition, he jumps at the chance. Lytton's team includes a sailor named McNiff (played by Bryan Brown), a biologist named Martha Dennison (played by Tushka Bergen), and a geologist named Max Anderson (played by Hugh Keays-Byrne). Together, they embark on an epic journey through caves, tunnels, and underground lakes to reach the center of the earth.

As they journey deeper and deeper, they face a series of challenges and dangers. They encounter prehistoric creatures such as giant mushrooms, flying reptiles, and giant ammonites. They also travel across huge underground oceans and rivers, which threaten to drown them at any moment. And all the while, they are pursued by a group of rival explorers who will stop at nothing to reach the center of the earth first.

Despite these obstacles, Lytton and his team continue to press onward. They are determined to unlock the secrets of the earth's core and uncover the mysteries that lie hidden beneath the surface. Along the way, they discover the remains of Saknussemm's journey – including his journal, which provides valuable clues to their own quest.

Journey to the Center of the Earth is a thrilling adventure movie that is full of action, suspense, and spectacle. The movie is beautifully shot and features some stunning special effects. The cast is also excellent, with Treat Williams and Jeremy London delivering strong performances as Lytton and Jonathan.

Overall, Journey to the Center of the Earth is a must-see movie for fans of adventure and exploration. It is a classic tale of discovery and survival that will keep you on the edge of your seat from beginning to end. Whether you are a fan of the book or have never heard of it before, this movie is sure to leave a lasting impression.

• Trivia When Trevor opens the box of stuff belonging to his lost brother, he pulls out an odd wooden item, says he doesn't know what it is, and sets it aside. The item is a Holmes Stereoscope, designed in 1861 by Oliver Wendell Holmes to look at stereocards. Similar to postcards, they show a left-view and right-view photograph mounted next to each other. When viewed through a stereoscope, the photographs merge into one 3-D image. The Holmes Stereoscope was a great source of entertainment in the Victorian era. The same process was later adopted for ViewMaster viewers and cards.
• Goofs (at around 1h 18 mins) When Trevor tries to ignite the magnesium with a flare, he claims that it's "...too wet...". Magnesium burns in water, producing magnesium oxide and hydrogen - in fact, pouring water on burning magnesium intensifies the fire; the most effective way to douse a magnesium fire is to cover it with sand or dry dirt.

Sean : [running from a dinosaur] Haven't you ever seen a dinosaur before?

Product Description

JOURNEY TO THE CENTER OF THE EARTH As luck would have it, Alice Hastings arrives and it seems she may be Jonas Lytton's salvation. Alice is a wealthy patron who hires Lytton to find her missing husband Casper, who disappeared while on a gold-hunting expedition in New Zealand. While Jonas is at first hesitant to accept the venture, he eventually reconsiders and accompanies Alice and his uncle on their journey. They are soon joined by McNiff, a somewhat unsavory character whose knowledge of the Maori culture and language prove him to be indispensable to their expedition. During their adventure, the group finds themselves barely escaping death after they fall into the clutches of a cannibalistic Maori gang. They continue onward and travel inside the mysterious caves of a volcanic crater. Facing death at every turn, they soon arrive at a mysterious underground beach that turns out to be the center of the Earth. Inside, they find evidence that Casper has also been to this uncharted land. But where is Casper? BONUS MOVIE INCLUDED MYSTERIOUS ISLAND Escaping from a Confederate prison camp by balloon, five survivors land on an uncharted island in the Pacific. Far from being a sanctuary, the island is home to carnivorous monsters, bloodthirsty pirates, and the mad genius, Captain Nemo, who inhabits the mysterious island for his own strange ends.
