Great CLEAN movie!

by picaraperez

This movie is a great movie for adults and kids. My husband and I usually have to opt for animated movies on account of our 6-year-old but I had read another review saying that this movie has no curse words and mild action scenes so we decided to go see it with our son. We loved it and it wasn't too intense for our son either. I'm so glad to see that people still make movies that are clean and wholesome for the whole family. The Rock also played a great example of what a Step-Father should be...or any father for that matter.

Adventurous with some laughs

by FilmFemmeFatale

I never read the book upon which the story is based, so I can't compare the two. I wouldn't have gone at all except that my mom and brother wanted to see it and I went along for the ride .. but it did have some fun, scary, exciting and edge of your seat segments. Loved the miniature elephant, jumped out of my seat more than once at the sudden appearance of other larger critters. We saw the 3D version which allowed for some fabulous 'in your face' effects. Michael Caine's character added some interest, and the playful animosity between his character and the bulky but affable actor playing the young boy's step father was humorous. Many of the larger island scenes were breathtaking and a second run through would probably allow me to catch a lot of things I missed the first time through. The ending was somewhat predictable, but I'd give it three out of five star for effort.

Fast Paced Family Fun

by scottjsutton

Well paced action movie. Didn't get bogged down with "explanations", rather just moved swiftly forward.
Family fun (no one dies)! Kind of like a Universal Studios ride.

Great Kids Movie

by amp.elitetech

I brought my six year old son to this and he loved it, great family movie, with allot of action. It reminded me of when I was young and read the great "vern" classics.

Good Saturday popcorn family 3D movie to go see.

by CigarPlayer

Okay so, I think dudes have had enough of "The Rock" trying to be cool in movies. They guy has some acting skills but not very diverse talent wise. Michael Caine & Josh Hutcherson actually round this movie out and offset Dwayne's annoying 50% charm. Action is good. This is a great kids movie with all the adventure island feel to it. Good Saturday popcorn family 3D movie to go see.

Eh.

by soxcited4j

I didn't realize this movie was going to be geared so much to the younger crowd as it was. If you have a 7-13 year old son this would be a great movie for them. That aside, a beautifully made movie!

Good fun.

by mikedc16

So long as you check your brain at the door, this is a fun movie. The Rock is pretty funny and the movie uses the 3D effect quite well in many places. It's a fun way to kill 90 minutes of your weekend.

Journey 2 was a fun for everyone!

by brnzbomber

I'm a father of two who decided to take my kids to see Journey 2, as it was raining here in "sunny" San Diego. I love taking my kids to movies, but was actually a bit skeptical if both would enjoy it. I figured my soon-to-be 8 year-old daughter would like it, but unsure if my 3 year-old son would. Well, I can tell you that both let out several "oohs" and "ahhs" along with a whole bunch of "cool!" and lots of laughs along with it. The director did a great job keeping the details in the movie simplified (which works so well for family films). My daughter's favorite character was Gabato (Luiz Guzman). "He was so silly, daddy!". My son loved Hank (Dwayne Johnson). "He was so big!" He also liked Kailani (Vanessa Hudgens). "She's so pretty, Daddy...like a rainbow!" They loved the action scenes in there, as well. I enjoyed it and am glad I took my kids to it. It was exciting and fun with a lot of laughs; all in 3-D! Too bad mom had a conference to go to...

Journey 2: The Mysterious Island 3D

by HeelCam

I loved this movie a lot. It lived up to the hype that all of the critics have been saying about it. If you have not seen this movie then you must see it.
