Sorry guys, but I think this was a very crappy disaster movie. It starts when everyone is introduced while the movie has already begun. Over and over again I get to see all the names, written in flames.
The complete budget for special effects seems to be wasted on digital explosions, and these were not so good. The machine used for saving the world looks like a giant card-board box with Grey spray-paint. On the most stupid moments the speed is taken out of the story. Come on guys, the world is about to end, you're the devoted ones to save it, don't bother on saying "please", or stop the vehicle and start an argument about who's turn it is to launch the nuke, etc, etc.
When taking a roller-coaster ride in a machine through the earth, it is expected that all persons move the same way. Not in this movie.
The cockpit is made of white IKEA-boxes with office chairs with only a few monitors and some buttons. The drill is making a hole twice as big as the vehicle, etc, etc, etc.
I wonder, wasn't there an actor prepared to warn the director that he was making a disaster of this movie, instead of making a movie about a disaster.
I usually like this type of films, but not this one.
