He decides to follow the steps of Max with Sean and they travel to Iceland, where they meet the guide Hannah Sgeirsson (Anita Briem).

A nice, action-packed family film, where the roles for each character were chosen quite well. That translated into it being quite enjoyable entertainment, the kind of film you can sit through without paying too much attention and still have a good time. Occasionally, you might laugh at something, and occasionally you might hold your breath, but once it's over, you'll quickly forget about it. A nice little film that won't offend.

Brendan, Brendan... Another screwup. You'd think Jules Verne would never turn over in his grave more than after the latest adaptation of “Around the World in 80 Days”. This is just too much.

A fun silly romp for the whole family that could easily have been 4* in IMAX. And something else I noticed, Brendan Fraser isn't very convincing as a scientist. ;-)
