The Core Reviews

external linkA decent "disaster" flick that touches upon all of the staple marks that any pic of its genre requires including a catastrophic opening, the government's assemblage of a ragtag team of experts from various fields, scenes of preparation and CGI destruction, a few one-liners, a few emotional moments, a few suspenseful flashes and various dire situations in which it appears as though there is no way out until...McGyver shows up with a fingernail and some string and the world is saved!! [read review] 6/10
--'JoBlo' (JoBlo.com)
external linkWith over two hours to fill, there's not enough disaster or sparkling dialogue to keep up the momentum, but it's still a fun popcorn flick. As cheesy movies go, this is the ripest of camemberts. [read review] 3/5
--Jamie Russell (BBC Films)
external linkThoroughly enjoyable sci-fi disaster movie in the best ‘B’ movie tradition – the effects and dialogue have their ropey moments, but this is great fun. Much better than Armageddon. [read review] 4/5
--Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
external linkEverything about "The Core" is routine B-movie science fiction, except the setting, which is treated as an inner version of outer space. [read review]
--Jack Mathews (New York Daily News)
external linkA journey to the center of the earth, with filmmakers who know exactly how preposterous this movie really is. [read review]
--Stephanie Zacharek (Salon)
external linkSo bad that, in a funny sort of way, it actually becomes extremely entertaining. [read review] 6/10
--Gary Panton (Movie Gazette)
external linkA film that is able to unite mankind in a veil of universal hatred. [read review] 0/5
--Carl Lazarevic (MovieWeb)
