For reasons unknown, the earth's inner core has stopped rotating, causing the planet's electromagnetic field to rapidly deteriorate. Instantly, life around the globe begins to change dramatically. In Boston, 32 people with pacemakers, all within a 10-block radius, suddenly drop dead. In San Francisco, the Golden Gate Bridge collapses, sending hundreds of people plunging to their deaths. In London's Trafalgar Square, flocks of pigeons lose their ability to navigate, flying into panicked crowds. And in Rome, as thousands of tourists watch helplessly, an electrical superstorm reduces the ancient Colosseum to rubble. Scrambling to resolve the crisis, government and military officials call upon geophysicist Dr. Josh Keyes and a team of the world's most gifted scientists to travel into the earth's core in a subterranean craft piloted by terranauts Major Rebecca "Beck" Childs and Commander Robert Iverson. Their mission: detonate a nuclear device that will reacativate the core and save the world from sure destruction. (texto oficial do distribuidor)

Em todos os aspetos, um puro clássico. Um pouco de suspense, um pouco aborrecido, um pouco sentimental, um pouco estúpido, um pouco engraçado e agradavelmente leve. Algo entre Armageddon e Impacto Profundo, só que nem com muita ação, nem suficientemente psicológico. Uma aventura ligeira numa execução tecnicamente brilhante e agradável quanto aos atores.

I would liken this film to a colonoscopy. It's also a probe, you don't look forward to it at all, when it comes, it hurts a bit at times, after it's over you say to yourself that it wasn't that bad and in an hour you don't even remember it anymore...

It's not stupid at all... perhaps phantasmagorical, exaggerated, naïve, but at the same time amusing and free of the repulsive nationalist connotations of some of its genre companions. A physicist might tear his hair out while watching the far-fetched plots and the logic takes a nap, but the tension is there, the acting performances are ok. The tricks are horribly artificial, but they fit the cardboard aesthetic of The Core quite well. Definitely a better disaster film than The Day After Tomorrow or Armageddon. At least it's not trying to be a big beautiful A film - it's just trying to have fun, which, when watched with low expectations, is pretty good.

A stupid screenplay, lame dialogs, overly long and terrible effects. It’s not boring and is just about watchable, although primarily thanks to the “so bad that it’s good" syndrome. But it really does require you to switch off your brain and take it with a huge pinch of salt. The only thing that is passable here are the actors; in fact they are fairly average, but to give the bland and one-dimensional characters some sort of depth is a success. In relative terms, at least. The screenwriters should go back to junior high for a bit of coaching. They evidently missed a semester or two of physics and chemistry.

I appreciate the quite decent idea of going down instead of up for a change, but there was a lack of budget. This film needed more visual effects, better actors, better music, more action-packed excitement, a better and more grandiose ending, and above all, more exaggeration. Armageddon fulfills all of this, The Core does not.

A classically bad American disaster film that also dabbles in sci-fi, which is too far-fetched, overly melodramatic, and taken too seriously, even though it would have been much better if treated as a classic B-movie, albeit with fairly good effects. The cast was good, and that's the only thing that deserves to be praised.
