Storyline

The year is 1886, when New England's fishing harbours are the scene for a "creature of unknown origin" destroying ships at sea. It is the job of Professor Pierre Aronnax, a marine expert, and Ned Land, the iron willed sailor, to learn the truth of the "monster" roaming the seas. The great novelist, Jules Verne, described this perilous journey to the darkest depths of the sea with Captain Nemo aboard the Nautilus. Written by Edwin van Oorschot <info@edwinvanoorschot.nl>

Worst film I ever watched.
2 January 2008 | by (Germany) – See all my reviews

I read the book years ago and I love it so much that I watched the film version made in 1954 and it was great. Yesterday, I convinced some friends to watch this version from 1997, because the acting was promising and I was expecting nicer special effects than those made in 1954. Well, I have to say that RTL2 chose the worst movie they could have ever chosen for New Years Eve. These guys trying to be original changed the original story to a really boring story, full with inconsistencies and bad acting. Save your time and angriness and don't watch this film, try better to get the version from 1954 which won 2 Oscars and is really based on the novel from Jules Verne.
