The Core Reviews |
A 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)
With 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]  --Jamie Russell (BBC Films)
Thoroughly 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]  --Matthew Turner (ViewLondon)
Everything 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)
A journey to the center of the earth, with filmmakers who know exactly how preposterous this movie really is. [read review] --Stephanie Zacharek (Salon)
So bad that, in a funny sort of way, it actually becomes extremely entertaining. [read review] 6/10 --Gary Panton (Movie Gazette)
A film that is able to unite mankind in a veil of universal hatred. [read review]  --Carl Lazarevic (MovieWeb)
