idea what the budget was for this movie, but i'm sure it is approximately equal to the combined annual GDP of several small third world nations. the acting was bearable, dialogue was campy and the movie's producers didn't hold back at all in making fun of themselves. they knew it was an absurd idea that armageddon come from the stalling of the earth's core, but they definitely researched this film to the hilt. there's actually a bit of character development in the movie too, something you don't see often in action/scifi movies. one thing i have to warn you about though....SEE THIS MOVIE IN THE MOVIE THEATERS ON THE HUGEST HUGEST HUGEST SCREEN YOU CAN FIND. i was enthralled for the entire two hours i sat on my ass, but it would definitely not have had the same effect if i watched it on my dinky 20" tv screen at home. so hurry out and spend the $10 if you're in NYC to see this movie in theaters. PLEASE. it rocks. you won't regret it. honest.

get blamed, after all she's so pretty and young so she has to be lame, but they find out that the accident happened way before her decisions, and that they actually saved the day against all odds...There's also this geek, a pure computer genius who can hack a company with a mere piece of gum wrapping, and 2 notes of music with it. Don't mess with geeks. We also see him have a big emotional moment, so the belief that introverts are just distant, cold and calculated gets shattered. There's some deep emotions going on in there.We also have the moral that when your defense army is so full of mistrust, they can end up destroying the world and themselves along with it... and kicking a dead horse with more of the problem isn't going to cut it... even if weapons can be used to save people, you have to aim them properly, not at people, with good intentions, and even so you can die in the process...3 loved ones makes this ugly world worth saving... It doesn't have to be perfect, we don't need the arrogance to care for the whole planet to do something heroic... a simple man wishing to save what his precious to him can do a lot of heartfelt good... If everyone was to do their share, the world would become a better place way faster than superman would be able to make it. But that's my own interpretation You have great apocalyptic moments, funny moments, the impact on children... Rivalry and making peace, how people behind the scenes in the dirt can actually be way more productive and clever than people bragging in the spot light... How criminals can actually care much more for the fate of the world than people who think they are in charge of it and only care about their personal control, led by fear far more than reason, and certainly not wisdom.It was a family friendly movie, heart warming... It was magnificent to see deep n the earth, the giant geode and diamonds... ah~!!! And the science, maybe a lot of people hated it because it seemed far fetched... that's what we said about the greatest discoveries before we accepted it centuries after... like the earth being round, and not the center of the universe with god's eye directly staring at it... I think it is possible... I like making theories, and I recently thought about maybe the gravity isn't only done by rotating around the sun, maybe all things have a center of gravity on it's on... even people, we can take pictures of their energy some weirdos call it auras... apparently it exists, things have one too ... so everything has energy... so I wondered if the earth could have one on it's own... that movie explained it in details! And it made so much sense well, to me... I was open to the idea... and how powerful is the magnetic field... enough to repel the energy of the sun so we won't boil... not just from a bas bubble's crust ozone but energy too... and this energy is made by centrifuge force like turning a bucket full of water above your head fast enough, the water stays in, and the planet turning around the sun so to have someone turning inside the earth... and how small repetitive strikes can disturb and even stop it... or our moral and health It's brilliant!!! The earth is alive... changing, moving... and if it's heart stops... we all die...Yeah I bet many hate the idea, because then you can't suck it's blood and do whatever you want to it... you'll poison yourself right back... to the core... how something so far from our eyes could affect us... like the moon and the tides and their idea of the consequences... letting the suspense intrigue us before they explain it... like how you can think that you are on top of the world, young, successful... but then in a second, out of the blue, you drop dead... How much it's important to enjoy yourself now while you still can...I felt bad when they hid the information from the population... the masses could have come up with ideas... Like putting lighting rots... that could have been useful... blissful ignorance tend to explode in your face soon or later... enjoy it while it last I guess, but then you are powerless... it wasn't an act of god but an act of human stupidity... but yeah, go ahead... just whine and blame god, way easier than do something about it, no wait you're dead.I guess people really hated to see that... hum...But the truth always come out... you can't hide it from people who want to know... people who want to tell always find a way...Because the least we can do when people die for others, is to know and be grateful.I adored this movie! Full of emotions, science, morale, colorful characters...But no sex, not even sexy clothes... no one farted... man what a flop... don't waste your time... it could make you think.. and that could make your brain create new pathways between your neurones... Ouch... Thank god it's entertaining!

Dollar Baby, Freedom Writers starts investigating the mysterious change. They built this massive, narrow underground machine to reactivate the core back up and running, otherwise, it's the end of mankind.Even though this is a science fiction movie, there are a few disaster elements that happen in the movie, like the city of Rome, Italy gets destroyed by a lightning storm, intense heat melts the Golden Gate Bridge, and birds go crazy in Trafalgar Square, London.I don't want to get into more detail on this movie, but I thought it was one of the "best science fiction films ever created", it was intense, suspenseful, and awesome. Ignore these critics, they don't know what their talking about, this movie is a must see!!!!I give the "The Core" 10/10

waiting for, go SEE IT!

nothing to hate here. I found Armageddon a weaker film with a higher amount of dull moments and a lot of irritating dialogue. I had less feeling for the characters in that film. I prefer Day after tomorrow though. Its definitely worth watching once in your life.

acting performances. Aaron Eckhart, Stanley Tucci, and Hilary Swank all turned in very fine performances.I also must commend the special effects. The visual CGI was very effective.Now for a movie genre like this, this movie should have performed better at the box office. But I guess all the negative reviews had something to do with it. I rate this movie 9/10.

taking it so seriously. Down a six pack and accept The Core into your lives.

care? Not one bit. The Core is a movie I never tire of, and I think it is one of the better natural disaster movies. The performances are solid and the dialog interesting. If your problem is the performance of the script, I can't say anything more, but if you're quibbling about the "scientific errors", and I'm sure there are many, I have this to say to you: Relax. Have fun. You'll live longer.

another to keep the adrenaline going. I got really engaged by the film, and I cared for the characters. I was touched by their selfless sacrifice, and ecstatic about the ending.If you treat "The Core" as popcorn entertainment instead of an educational documentary, you will surely be entertained.
