Best version of 20k Leagues!!
11 February 1999
This version of "20,000 Leagues Under the Sea" is by far the best version. Michael Caine is an excellent Captain Nemo and Brian Nelson made Pierre Arronax into an interesting and complex character. Pierre, who is constantly under the criticism of his father, searches for the sea monster and ends up on board the Nautilus. The submarine is an excellent design - it is beautiful and yet menacing and has plenty of space for its occupants. (The Model Smiths did a superior job on the models for this film.) The story follows some of the same lines as Verne, with the exception of depth to the characters and the addition of characters to add to the plot. This movie is definitely a "must see"!!
