Storyline
Phileas Fogg (Pierce Brosnan) accepts a wager to prove his contention that a man can go around the world in eighty days. After betting his entire fortune, he takes his new butler Jean Passepartout (Eric Idle) (a man hoping for a quite life) on a tour of the world. However, just before the time he leaves, the Bank of England is robbed, and a Detective believes that Fogg is the guilty party, and he sets out after him. Written by Dennis Kytasaari <djk@xnet.com>

Enjoy a night in with these popular movies available to stream now with Prime Video.
I have always tried to figure out why people pan a film simply because it was "not like the book".
I agree this mini-series is not as true to Verne's vision as other movies BUT it is an excellent introduction to Vernes & the late 19th century for students.
I have used this movie in my 9th grade World History classes & my students absolutely LOVE it. Over 3 weeks we watch the film track their progress on a map & keep track of the various modes of transportation that the main characters use.
We also discuss the role of Britian as an imperialist power & the growing importance of the US in the world.
I suggest this film for teachers & for families with middle school aged children. A great film!!
