With spectacular visuals as a backdrop, the story centers on an expedition led by Professor Lindenbrook (Mason) down into the earth's dark, threat-laden core. Members of the group include the professor's star student, Alec (Boone), and the widow (Dahl) of a colleague. Along the way lurk dangers such as kidnapping, death, sabotage by a rival explorer, and attacks by giant prehistoric reptiles. But they also encounter such magnificent wonders as a glistening cavern of quartz crystals, luminescent algae, a forest of giant mushrooms, and the lost city of Atlantis.

James Mason is more or less a guarantee of quality for me in any case, and he didn't disappoint me in this film either. It is also beautifully fantasy, mainly thanks to the excellent source material, but also due to the execution. These are the old effects that I just love, plus the work with the lizards turned out well. They look wonderfully believable as giant lizards. Naive, yet beautiful. ()
