The Core (2003)

[Movie 218 / Day 234]


Ridiculous action movie. The earth's core has 'stalled' and stopped spinning - with disastrous results for us. The only solution is to use an untested, newly invented type of metal to build a ship and use an untested, newly invented laser to drill a hole big enough for that ship to carry a bunch of scientists and a couple of astronauts down to the centre of the earth in order to set off a couple of nukes in order to jump-start it.

Average, but fun enough. I'm not sure if Film4 cut it for an advert or if I managed to miss a whole segment, but one of the scientists on the ship literally disappeared half way through the film.

My rating: 5.1 / 10
IMDB rating: 5.3 / 10
Running time: 135 mins
