Incannerax What a waste of my time!!!

GamerTab That was an excellent one.

UnowPriceless hyped garbage

Celia A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

tracylong-09623 Although the Core came out in 2003 it seems more like a product of the mid-late 90s disaster films. Similar look, basic premise and big stars- recipe for the holiday blockbuster. But The Core was panned by critics as I recall and one look at the wiki page tells me it was a box office dud failing to recoup its production budget. But it's alright film if you can shut your brains down. It's so bad its good and for such films scientific accuracy or common sense should not be used.

gavin6942 The only way to save Earth from catastrophe is to drill down to the core and set it spinning again.Strangely enough, the worst part of this film is the part about them drilling into the core. Or, in other words, the entire second half. The practicality of it is so nonsensical that it makes "Armageddon" look plausible.However, the first half is quite good. Aaron Eckhart is wonderful and a convincing scientist. The discussions of theoretical matters is quite interesting. I did not realize, for example, that the core of the earth is as big as Mars! (Yes, it's true.) The problem only really starts when these theories get tested in a silly way.

denis888 If you are into a sci-fi flick with a huge disaster and everything coming down crashing or burning, choose The Day Afetr Tomorrow as a prime example of seamless connection of suspense, thriller, wit and great sympathy. Do not choose this abominable poor film that lacks both depth and decency, that is shallow and rushed, thin and defying all the possible laws of both science and logic. Neither Hillary Swank not Aaron Eckhart could save this silly fairy tale from being pathetic, slim and boring. We saw it all before many times, so do we need yet another catastrophe flick which is dragging and boring to the core, yup, pun intended. This is a very predictable moview with all the tropes seen and heard before and thus not captivating or thrilling.

Tony_R_68 After reading a few reviews saying "it's not that bad" and wanting to see a few "omg the earth will die please USA do something" movies... I dared to watch this one again. What a terrible idea. I now know why I could barely watch it until the end the first time. This movie is insulting your brain. It's an insult to science, an insult to pure logic at times. The acting is maybe the best thing here, I feel like they still try to do something (not all of them, not all the time), in spite of the awful story and script. Even the music is terrible. Oh yeah, some people will say (as they always do) "hey, it's a movie. What about star wars, they have droids, light sabers, spaceships, etc...". The difference is that star wars is not science fiction, star wars is a space opera. And they could be using technology that we just don't know or don't know yet. The "science" in "The core" is about things that we know. And almost everything is wrong or does not make sense at all. This movie is terrible, terrible to the core.
