Five prisoners of war escape captivity in a Confederate prison camp only to land in an uncharted Pacific island where time stands still and dastardly pirates don't take kindly to strangers in director Russell Mulcahy's screen adaptation of fantasy author Jules Verne's literary classic. They thought they were on their way to freedom when they leapt into a balloon and took to the skies, but upon landing on an island where nothing is as it seems, these escapees are about to embark on the adventure (allrovi.com)

My personal favorite moment was when the volcano's exploding and Patrick Stewart is the only one in the scene faking earthquake-like tremors.

Excellent cast, very badly used. Insanely stupid special effects for 2005. Asinine script. Acting from Kyle MacLachlan and Patrick Stewart is uncharacteristically apathetic. Probably because of amateur producers and a terrible director. The entire animation team, writers, producers and director should be banned for life. Gabrielle Anwar was beautiful and not terrible. Danielle Calvert played the role of Gilligan. Sadly, watching this miniseries was almost painful.

I caught this thing on TV by accident... it's a laughable, loose adaptation of the Jules Verne novel. The only thing it has in common with the book is the basic plot (people getting stranded on an island) and some of the characters. That's it. If you like bad movies featuring giant animals and monsters, treasure and a total ignorance of the book it's based on then this is a movie for you. If not... you'd be best advised to simply ignore it and perhaps read the original book.
