I really think Brenden Fraser just makes movies he wants to make now, ones he thinks will be fun. I didn’t so much mind the plot holes, but the missing character development in Journey to the Center of the Earth got to me. And how much time was supposed to have passed? They supposedly walked and boated fromIcelandtoItalyunderground over the course of a weekend? And coins in jars aren’t enough for a last minute ticket toIcelandto begin with.

Despite all of my issues with the movie, I found it fun and actually enjoyed it.
