Avis à la une
I give this movie 9 out of 10. Enjoy!!
The visuals are absolutely beautiful, and they are apparently achieved by a clever combination of animated drawings combined with live actors, stop-motion animation and sets that are painted so that they look much like from an animated movie. Combined by Jules Verne's own unique versions of airplanes and submarines and Karel Zeman's good directing results in a very well done and convincing visual style that manages to effectively hold one's attention until the end of the movie.
There are some problems as well, one of the underwater scenes at the end takes maybe needlessly lot of time for example, as the story in the first part of the movie is rushed through quite quickly. None of this matters much though since the movie is always highly enjoyable. A gem that deserves to be more well known for today's audiences as well. A recommended movie for the whole family.
I was a graduate of Occidental College in LA...Terry Gilliam proceeded me by some 12 years......Why do I comment on this? - Well, if you watch this film it has Gilliam's shtick written all over it....I only wish I'd had the chance to question him at the college bicentennial in 1986.....I have little doubt that he'd deny that Zeman's films had had any influence on him, but it's a obvious as the nose on your face! Anyone notice that?
I love the Professor Serke, the Count's number one quiz kid. If I didn't know better, I'd swear that he was a character right out of the much later "Wild Wild West"...Couldn't you see him as yet another evil genius out to take over the world?. Victorian gadgets galore!
This film makes me feel as thought I'm part of that era, it makes all of it seem so alive!
Oh yeah, the film would not have had nearly the impact that it's had on me were if not for Lisko's fabulous musical score...It emotes the charm of the Victorian era in a manner I've not seen before or since. It's also interesting that his music has certain synthesizer-Esq qualities as used for sound effects.
Has anyone ever noticed the obvious similarities in the small reconnaissance submarine to Professor Fates' craft in the much later "The Great Race"?.......I doubt it!
Captain Spade........Were he and Bluto twin brothers separated at birth?
Le saviez-vous
- AnecdotesThe animation and production design are intended to evoke the woodcut illustrations of the original Jules Verne novels.
- GaffesThere are a few single frames in the original release that have Karel Zeman posing his work. Several are during the small sub rescue in the underwater cave. The original American release still has these mistakes. The remastered versions have these taken out. These can still be seen in the bonus featurette that is included with the remastered Blu-ray Disc release.

Himself - Announcer: [This first part is live and only in the original English release version that is sometimes cut out of television viewings] Hello! I'm Hugh Downs! This is a model of one of our newest submarines! A submarine similar to this recently sailed around the world without refueling and without once coming to the surface! Amazing isn't it! And this... a new jet passenger plane! Los Angeles to New York in less than five hours! Flies from New York to Paris in seven! It took Lindberg thirty-three hours to make that same trip! In the last hundred years the world has come astounding! The miracles of yesterday are now common everyday occurrences, and our frontiers, underwater, outer space are limitless! But of all the genius that walked this earth in the last hundred years, none is more remarkable then one man, with a magic pen! Of the many story tellers who have thrilled young and old a special ora will always surround the name Jules Verne! Verne's imagination has captured the minds and hearts of all of us! With him we have adventured to the center of the Earth! We have traveled twenty-thousand leagues under the sea! And we have soured in a balloon around the world in eighty days!
[from this point the following is Hugh Downs voice only, translating what was said in the original version]
Himself - Announcer: A hundred years ago in the confines of this small room, the unconfined imagination of Jules Verne created the fabulous shape of things to come! In these century old books lies the prophecy of our own era of atomic energy of the guided missile! The fantastic accuracy of Verne's predictions is demonstrated in the story you will now see on this screen! A story Verne wrote when the newest creations of science were the steamship and the primitive balloon! Our story is told in the words of his hero, Simon Hart! Just as Verne wrote it! Simon Hart was a man of the nineteen century! But these illustrations from the original book indicate that he saw the twentieth century sharp and clear! Now the droll delightful fabulous world of Jules Verne! Brought to life from these hundred year old illustrations by the miracle of "Misti-Mation"!
