Sean & his step father decode a signal broadcast believed to be sent by Sean's missing grandfather.
Starring- Dwayne 'Rock', Josh Hutcherson
Director- Brad Peyton
Journey 2 is the sequel of 2008's Journey to the Center of the Earth (Brendan Fraiser & Josh H). It like its predecessor is a awesome visual treat.
The main highlight of the whole movie was Dwayne 'Rock'. His charm easily lifts the movie and sets it on course and the viewers are able to forgive the cheesy dialogues and over acting from Josh & Vanessa.Luis is a great comic relief for this movie and he gives ample support to Dwayne for many funny sequences.Michael Caine is wasted.
Story is average.It isnt very great and just plods on.Direction from Brad is not very good.The movie drags in many places and when its time for a plot point ,it quickly picks up pace and ends up looking a rushed up scene.The movie is also too kiddish and lacks common sense in many scenes.The cheesy dialogues exchanged too is quite embarrassing.
The visuals are upto the mark (although the Center of the Earth is still better). The island and its bizarre nature is well captured but not extensively utilized.The action scenes are also quite good.
Overall ,fans of Dwayne 'Rock' will enjoy it.Due to the overdose of kiddish material ,kids will love this movie.
Acting-2.5/5
Story-2/5
Direction-2/5
Action-3.5/5
Visual Effects- 4/5
