Last weekend I saw a movie journey to the center of earth. I enjoyed
a lot because it contain awesome story, which I going to share with you.
Trevor Anderson is
a Bostonian whose 13-year-old nephew, Sean is supposed to spend ten days
with him. When Sean's mother drops him off, she leaves Trevor with a box of
items that belonged to Max, Trevor's brother and Sean's father, who disappeared
10 years before. Sean suddenly takes interest in what Trevor has to
say after he tells him about his father, whom he never really had a chance to
know. Among the items in the box is the novel A Journey to the Center of
the Earth by Jules Verne. Inside the book, Trevor finds notes written
by his late brother. At Trevor's laboratory, the two learn there is a new dot
on his radar device on Snafell, an extinct volcano in Iceland. Trevor goes
to Iceland to investigate, and Sean goes with him.
They start by looking for another volcanologist named
Sigurbjörn Ásgeirsson and instead find his daughter Hannah Ásgeirsson, the
scientist having died years earlier. While hiking the mountain, a lightning
storm forces the three into a cave that collapses, leaving them trapped. They
find it is an abandoned mine. They venture further into the mine, eventually
reaching the bottom of a volcanic tube which is full of precious gems. As they
are admiring the gems they realize the floor they're standing on is actually muscovite,
a very thin layer of rock formation. The muscovite breaks, and the group falls
through the volcanic tube towards the center of the earth, surviving only
because the volcanic tube eventually turns into something like a "water
slide" which drops them into a lake. There, they find that the center of
the Earth is actually another world contained within the Earth.
After that they find some of Max's things as well, such
as his water bottle and his journal. While Trevor and Sean are going through
what they've found, Hannah wanders off and unfortunately discovers Max's body. Using
Max's advice from his journal, Trevor figures that they must find a geyser that
can send them to the surface, which is located on the other side of the
underground ocean, or else the temperature will rise up to 200°F, making it
impossible to survive. They build a raft and begin crossing the underground
ocean, but soon encounter a pack of Xiphactinus, so they use makeshift
baseball bats to bat them away, until the arrival of a shoal of Elasmosaurus.
After the fish attack, the raft's sail becomes loose, and Sean tries to hold
on, but is blown away and becomes separated from the two adults.
At the end they find Sean, in the cave with contain magnesium
Trevor uses a flare to ignite the magnesium in the wall and causes a geyser to
shoot them through Mount Vesuvius in Italy, where they destroy
the vineyard of an Italian man; Sean gives him a diamond that he
found earlier to say sorry. Trevor sees that he has many more in his backpack,
and he uses them to fund his brother's laboratory. Throughout the adventure,
Hannah and Trevor gradually become close and even share a kiss. Sean visits
Trevor and Hannah in their new home, which was purchased with some of the
diamonds Sean took from the cave.
