Fun Stuff

Trivia:
When Trevor opens the box of stuff belonging to his lost brother, he pulls out an odd item and says he doesn't know what it is and sets it aside. The item is a stereoscope, a device invented in Victorian England for showing a still image so that it appears to be in 3D. more
Goofs:
Continuity: In the scene where Sean is laying on the "beach" after being carried across the ocean by the kite, when he is laying down, he is shown to have gloves on. In the next shot, as he is standing up, the gloves are gone. In the next shot, he is taking the gloves off and in the next shot, they have disappeared again as he begins to follow the bird. more
Quotes:
[from trailer]

3D was the only good part, 27 July 2008
4/10
Author: tmcona-1 from United States

This movie was another movie in the long line of only good because their in 3D movies. The story and acting was awful, and it felt like I was watching a cheap imitation of Indiana Jones. Brendan Friser's charm can't win this one (hopefully the Mummy 3 is better). The script is just awful and the movie was boring 10 minutes in. The movie was only about 90 minutes and it felt like it dragged on for hours and hours. The plot and some of the things that happen are just stupid and almost like a farce even for a Verne novel. My best bet, don't spend the extra fee theaters are charging for this 3D waste. The 3D effects are awesome, but wasted in this golden turkey.
